LV 124 Automotive test standard

Since 2010 the LV 124 has become the most important test standard for the automotive industry. The LV 124 includes several mechanical, climatic and life tests, such as the K-09 damp heat cyclic test, the K-15 condensation test and the L-03 temperature cycle life test.

Espec offers a wide variety of products that can perform temperature, humidity, condensation, shock and splash testing according to LV 124 Part II standards. A list of the LV 124 tests that can be performed with Espec products is shown below:
