ESS Testing for Product Reliability

In electronics, reliability is everything. Whether a product goes to the ocean floor, into the road, or onto the factory floor, it needs to work – every time. That’s where Environmental Stress Screening (ESS) makes sure it does.

For almost 30 years, Virinco has helped customers make products that last. ESS is one of the ways we catch problems early, especially in industries where equipment faces challenging or critical conditions.

Here we focus on ESS test systems — just one of many custom test solutions we design and deliver.

What is ESS?

ESS pushes electronics beyond normal limits. It uses controlled stress to reveal weaknesses before products leave the factory.
Common ESS methods include:

  • Temperature cycling – rapid heating and cooling
  • Vibration – simulating transport or operational stresses
  • Humidity – testing resistance to moisture

These tests expose weaknesses before the product leaves the factory. You find issues in your lab — not in your customer’s hands.

Recently, we successfully delivered an ESS testing system to one of our subsea customers. Engineered and manufactured with a clear commitment to lasting quality, reliability, and sustainability.

Why ESS Matters

ESS helps you:

  • Catch failures before products are shipped
  • Strengthen your brand’s reputation for quality
  • Cut returns and warranty costs
  • Keep products working longer in the field

Our ESS Systems

We build ESS systems for subsea, automotive, industrial, and electronics companies. Each system is tailored to your needs, built for years of service, and easy to maintain.

Need a new ESS platform? We’ll design it.
Already have one? We can upgrade it.

Either way, you get quality you can trust.
