4. High Severity Sled Pulse Requirements
The sled acceleration must be within the corridors for the complete time interval from 0ms to 150ms
as illustrated in Figure 19.
Figure 19: High severity pulse corridors
The corridor data points are detailed in Table 8 along with additional requirements for the low
severity sled pulse.
