Humidity
The Humidity test was performed in accordance with MIL-STD-810F,
Method 507.4 (Aggravated). The test items were tested for operation near
the conclusion of the fifth and tenth cycles. Each cycle was one day (24
hours) and the entire test was performed over ten days.The temperature
was cycled between 86 and 140°F with the relative humidity at 95% constant.
Results
The Toughbooks continued to boot up and operate following each test, and there
were no visual anomalies.
Picture
This
You're sitting in an aisle seat of an airplane working
to complete a presentation. The food cart accidentally bumps into your tray
table, knocking a cup of hot coffee onto your keyboard. The results
could be disastrous, unless your keyboard, ports and internal circuitry
have been designed to resist such hazards.
It's unavoidable. Notebooks get caught in the rain and accidentally dowsed
with coffee just like you do.
Spill-resistant Keyboard & Touchpad
Certain Toughbook models feature spill-resistant keyboards and touchpads
for protection against potential damage from the spills and splashes that are
common to mobile computing environments.
Protected LCDs
The LCD panel on some Toughbook models is protected by an overlay panel
which is sealed around the edges to provide extra protection against moisture
and dust.
Sealed Ports & PC Card Slots
Hinged aluminum alloy covers with environmental seals protect the multimedia
pocket, PC card slots and rear connection terminals.
