When testing a product in the marine environment, there are many parameters that need to be considered and examined. Oftentimes, these parameters are not obvious to an engineer, as they require specific undersea engineering skills and experience. When testing a product for durability in the marine environment, the assessment should not be limited to whether the product is waterproof or not, but should also include the following elements:
- Resistant to marine salts
- Metals: galvanic resistance
- Composite materials resistant
- Color resistance
- Salt buildup
- Sealing at low pressures over time
- Sealing at high pressures over time
- Sealing in hot water
- Sealing in cold water
- Materials
- Materials testing water
- Temperature changes in materials testing
- Creep resistance testing sealing areas
