Annotation of standard text ČSN EN 16602-70-17 (310510):

This standard specifies requirements for the durability testing of coatings most commonly used for space applications, i.e.: - Thin film optical coatings - Thermo-optical and thermal control coatings (the majority are paints, metallic deposits and coatings for stray light reduction) - Metallic coatings for other applications (RF, electrical, corrosion protection) This standard covers testing for both ground and in-orbit phases of a space mission. This standard includes coatings within off the shelf items This standard specifies the types of test to be performed for each class of coating, covering the different phases of a space project (evaluation, qualification and acceptance) This standard does not cover: - The particular qualification requirements for a specific mission - Specific functional testing requirements for the different coating classes - Test requirements for long term storage - Solar cell cover glass coatings - Surface treatments and conformal coatings applied on EEE parts This standard may be tailored for the specific characteristic and constrains of a space project in conformance with ECSS-S-ST-00. NOTE - Other tests can be appropriate for machines with design features that result in significantly different vibration characteristics. Vibration which reaches the operator other than through the seat, for example that sensed by the operator´s feet on the platform or control pedals or by the operator´s hands on the steering-wheel, is not covered
