LTO/DLT Tape Waterproof Protective Case - 50 Capacity (with jewel case)

This waterproof heavy duty case stores 50 LTO or DLT tapes in their plastic jewel boxes and provides protection against the key problems that cause data loss:

• physical damage from impact
• fast and large changes in temperature and humidity

• Waterproof
• Dustproof
• ATA Impact certified 
• Stainless steel hardware
• Double movement latches prevent accidental opening for added protection
• Double padlockable
• Lifetime warranty

Note: For proper fit, the LTO cartridges must be placed inside their plastic "jewel" boxes. For LTO cartridges to be stored/transported without their plastic jewel boxes see TeraTurtle listings.

Descriptions of Tests 
ATA Specification 300 Category 1
Airline transport container suitable for a minimum of 100 airline trips
Impact Resistance Test; samples were exposed to impact using a bar weighing 13.2lbs with a hemispherical end of 3.2cm. Bar was dropped with its longitudinal axis vertical on to each sample’s weakest point from a height of 0.5m. Samples were conditioned to a temperature of -20°C before impact exposure.

ASTM D-4169 DC-18
Level 1 Schedule A Handling (Manual)
Drop tests - a series of drops on each edge, corner and face of the case from a height of no less than 48cm(19”) and with loads of 6.8-31.8kg(15-70lbs) determined by case size. Samples were conditioned at lab ambient conditions and then temperatures of -28°C and +60°C for a minimum of 3 hours at each condition.

ASTM D-4169 DC-18
Level 1, Schedule F loose load vibration
Vibration - The cases are tested using test method D-999 to determine the ability to withstand the repetitive shocks occurred during transportation of loose loads.

ASTM D-4169 DC-18
Level 1, Schedule H Environmental Hazard Rainfall
Simulated rainfall for 2hrs at a rate of 10cm/hr (4”). Samples were conditioned to -20 degrees C and +52 degrees C.

MIL-STD-810F
Method 512.4
Immersion - The case is submerged in a basin of water to a depth of 1 meter (3.28 ft) to the top most part of the case for 30 minutes. The case is heated to 10 degrees F higher than the temperature of the water.
IP 67 ingress protection
6- Total protection from dust
7- Protected against the effects of immersion between 15cm (5.9”) and 1m (39.37”)
