SIST ETS 300 019-1-6 E1:2006 is the Slovenian standard identical to ETS 300 019-1-6 Edition 1 from ETSI. It classifies environmental conditions for telecommunications equipment used in ship environments, so designers, test engineers and buyers can match equipment to the maritime conditions it will face.
What does SIST ETS 300 019-1-6 E1:2006 specify?
SIST ETS 300 019-1-6 E1:2006 specifies classes of environmental conditions and their severities for telecommunications equipment intended mainly for maritime use. The document focuses on severe conditions that can harm equipment and on conditions that are unlikely to be exceeded.
The scope covers equipment on vessels propelled by mechanical means, including offshore units, and vessels not propelled by mechanical means, including sailing boats and life rafts. The classes are intended for all vessel sizes, from pleasure craft to trawlers, ferries, icebreakers and cargo ships, including tankers.
The document is organized into:
- Scope
- Normative references
- Definitions
- Environmental classes
- Environmental conditions
What are the key requirements of SIST ETS 300 019-1-6 E1:2006?
SIST ETS 300 019-1-6 E1:2006 requires the user to select the environmental class that fits the actual shipboard location and service. That matters because conditions vary with vessel size, ship function and whether the equipment is weatherprotected.
Class selection in clause 4
Clause 4 defines three location classes:
- 6.1 for totally weatherprotected locations
- 6.2 for partly weatherprotected locations
- 6.3 for non-weatherprotected locations
Class 6.1 is for protected, heated and ventilated spaces on engine-powered vessels. Class 6.2 allows more exposure, including rain, water jets and occasional heavy seas. Class 6.3 is the most exposed case and also covers refrigerated cargo spaces and more severe weather.
Mechanical class choice
Clauses 4.2 and 4.3 link the ship location classes to mechanical classes 6M3 and 6M4. The reader must choose the appropriate mechanical class according to the installation and the equipment’s use. In practice, this determines how the equipment is classified for vibration, shock and ship motion.
Environmental condition tables
Clause 5 sets the severities for:
- climatic conditions
- biological conditions
- chemically active substances
- mechanically active substances
- mechanical conditions
These tables are the core of the standard. They tell the reader what environmental stresses to expect for each class, which is what a manufacturer needs when designing, testing or qualifying equipment for a shipboard location.
Chemical and biological exposure
Clause 5 distinguishes between protected and exposed ship environments for mould, rodents, salt, gases, soot and other airborne substances. This matters because shipboard equipment may need corrosion resistance, sealing, filtration or material choices based on the class selected.
Motion, vibration and shock
Clause 5.5 describes stationary vibration, non-stationary vibration including shock, static list and trim, dynamic roll, pitch and yaw, and steady-state acceleration in the ship axes. In practice, this tells the engineer what mechanical loads the equipment must survive when mounted on a vessel.
Notes that affect use
The notes in clauses 4 and 5 explain important selection issues, such as the difference between engine-powered and non-mechanical vessels, the effect of cold climates, and the special case of tankers. These notes help avoid choosing a class that is too lenient or too severe for the real installation.
What terms does SIST ETS 300 019-1-6 E1:2006 define?
- Totally weatherprotected location - a location where direct weather influences are completely excluded.
- Partly weatherprotected location - a location where direct weather influences are not completely excluded.
- Non-weatherprotected location - a location where the equipment is not protected from direct weather influences.
- Class 6.1 - the shipboard class for totally weatherprotected locations on engine-powered vessels.
- Class 6.2 - the shipboard class for partly weatherprotected locations with greater exposure to weather and water.
- Class 6.3 - the shipboard class for non-weatherprotected locations with the most severe environmental exposure.
- 6M3 / 6M4 - mechanical classes chosen according to installation and use, with 6M4 covering the more demanding mechanical case.
Who uses SIST ETS 300 019-1-6 E1:2006?
SIST ETS 300 019-1-6 E1:2006 is used by telecommunications equipment designers, environmental test engineers, ship equipment manufacturers, quality managers and buyers who specify shipboard equipment. It is also useful for installers and project teams deciding whether a product is suitable for a protected space, an exposed deck area or another maritime location.
Which standards are used with SIST ETS 300 019-1-6 E1:2006?
The document cites several references that support its class system:
- ETR 035 - guidance and terminology for environmental engineering
- IEC 721-3-6 - the main ship-environment reference for the class combinations used here
- IEC 721-2-1 - temperature and humidity climate categories
- IEC 68-2-27 - shock testing and shock response spectrum background
- IEC 92-502 - special features for tankers
- ISO 2041 - vibration and shock vocabulary
What does the SIST ETS 300 019-1-6 E1:2006 document contain?
SIST ETS 300 019-1-6 E1:2006 contains five main condition tables and one shock-response figure. Table 1 covers climatic conditions, Table 2 biological conditions, Table 3 chemically active substances, Table 4 mechanically active substances and Table 5 mechanical conditions for classes 6M3 and 6M4.
The document also includes a figure for model shock response spectra and notes that explain how to apply the classes. In practice, these contents are used for environmental classification, equipment design, qualification testing and specification of shipboard installations.

4 Environmental classes
4.1 Class 6.1: Totally weatherprotected locations
This class is a combination of classes 6K1/6B1/6C1/6S1/6M3 in IEC publication 721-3-6 [2].
This class applies to equipment installed in totally weatherprotected, heated and ventilated locations
following warm-up on board engine-powered vessels but excluding refrigerated cargo spaces, machinery
spaces and locations containing equipment dissipating considerable amounts of heat. This class does not
cover Warm Damp and Warm Damp Equable climates.
NOTE: Climatic conditions for different areas are defined in IEC publication 721-2-1 [3].
This class applies to:
- equipment which is not exposed to heat radiation from adjacent equipment, heating elements or to
solar radiation through glass or transparent materials;
- installations on board vessels operating in areas without particular risk of attack by flora or fauna. It
also covers other vessels where the installations are located in compartments of such construction
that mould growth and attacks by animals are unlikely;
- totally weatherprotected installations which are not subjected to salt mist, engine exhausts or
emissions from nearby industrial sources;
- installations protected from sand, dust and ingress of soot;
- installations on board engine-powered vessels of all sizes.
4.2 Class 6.2: Partly weatherprotected locations
This class is a combination of classes 6K4/6B2/6C3/6S2/6M3 or 6M4 in IEC publication 721-3-6 [2].
This class applies, depending on the mechanical class chosen, to equipment installed in any location on
board engine-powered vessels - excluding refrigerated cargo spaces. The class applies in all climates with
the exception of Cold climates and areas with abnormal rain intensities and hurricanes. The equipment may
occasionally be subjected to heavy seas. (See the NOTE to subclause 4.1).
This class applies to:
- equipment which is subjected to direct solar radiation, to considerable heat dissipation from boilers,
engines etc., to rain and water jets. The equipment may be connected to wet surfaces;
- non-protected installations on board vessels operating in areas where mould growth and attacks by
animals may occur;
- non-weatherprotected installations on board vessels operating close to industrial areas with
considerable air pollution emissions. Salt mist and exposure to engine exhausts are included;
- all installations where sweeping of dusty decks may take place. It also covers locations subject to
emissions from boiler exhausts (e.g. soot, acid, etc.). Non-weatherprotected installations on board
vessels operating close to sand deserts are not covered;
- class 6M3: installations on board engine-powered vessels of all sizes but excluding equipment
connected directly to reciprocating types of machinery. Equipment connected directly to loading
systems, container guides, cranes and installations in dredgers are included;
- class 6M4: all installations on board engine-powered vessels of all sizes including equipment
connected directly to reciprocating types of machinery.
