ARP6330A: Methods to Evaluate Impact Characteristics of Seat Back Mounted IFE Monitors - Recommended Practice

Features

Issuing Committee: Aircraft Seat Committee

Scope

Content: This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) defines means to assess the effect of changes to seat back mounted IFE monitors on blunt trauma to the head and post-impact sharp edges. The assessment methods described may be used for evaluation of changes to seat back monitor delethalization (blunt trauma and post-test sharp edges) and head injury criterion (HIC) attributes (refer to ARP6448, Appendix A, Item 4). Application is focused on type A-T (transport airplane) certified seat installations.

Rationale

Content: Added criteria for newly developed component impact test for seat back monitors, revised engineering rationale section, and added a description of how monitor component test data should be used by those integrating the monitor into seat designs.
