Standard EIA 19″ racks serve as the backbone of most commercial data centers, but in military and naval applications, standard just isn’t good enough. Equipment housed within these racks must survive the harsh conditions found aboard combat vessels, including exposure to vibration, shock, salt fog, and EMI.

At Electromet, we’ve engineered […]

BLOG: Navigating the Standards – What Makes an Enclosure Naval-Grade?

2025-09-29T10:15:33-05:00September 17th, 2025|Tags: , , , , , , |

When it comes to naval systems integration, not all enclosures are created equal. Mission-critical electronics demand protection from not just the sea—but from shock, vibration, EMI/RFI interference, and environmental extremes. That’s where standards like MIL-STD-901E, MIL-STD-167-1A, MIL-STD-461, and MIL-STD-810F come into play.

Electromet’s rugged enclosures and 19″ EIA racks are designed […]

BLOG: Understanding MIL-DTL-901E: Shock Qualification for Naval Enclosures

2025-07-17T16:13:49-05:00May 7th, 2025|Tags: , , , , , , |

When designing electronics enclosures for naval applications, survivability under extreme mechanical shock is not optional—it’s essential. MIL-DTL-901E, formerly known as MIL-STD-901D, is the defining standard for shock qualification of shipboard equipment. This standard governs how enclosures and their mounted electronics must perform when subjected to the violent shock loads that […]
