What is the peak to peak amplitude for the vibration test of the galvanic isolator?

The peak to peak amplitude for the vibration test of a galvanic isolator is particularly established to ensure that the isolator can withstand operational conditions without failure.

A peak to peak amplitude of 0.5 mm has been defined in testing standards as a realistic and effective measurement that balances the need for thorough testing with practical results. This amplitude enables testing of the isolator's structural integrity and its ability to function properly under normal operational vibrations that can occur in marine environments.

Testing at this specified amplitude assesses the isolator's resilience and performance, providing a reliable benchmark to determine if it can withstand the types of mechanical stresses it may experience while mounted in a vessel. It's important for maintaining the safety and functionality of electrical systems in marine applications, where galvanic isolators are essential for preventing corrosion in electrical circuits.

The other amplitude values would either be too low or too high, potentially leading to insufficient testing or risking damage to the isolator during testing procedures. Adhering to the established standard allows technicians to ensure that galvanic isolators will perform correctly in real-world scenarios.
