The coupling housing (collar) shall contain three holes. The holes shall be spaced 120 degrees apart, circumferentiall

29、y, with one of the holes located 180 degrees circumferentially from the point of the handling ring attachment. Each hole shall be located axially .460/.540 inches from end of the coupling housing and shall be tapped for .3125 - 24UNF - 2b threads of MIL-S-7742 to a minimum depth of 0.380 inch (See F

30、igure 1). 3.5.3 Handling ring. Ring is to be dimensional such that it will not interfere with aircraft structure or equipment attached to the aircraft.

32、ng permitted without license from IHS-,-,-MIL-DTL-25531F 7 3.6 Locking of parts. All threaded parts shall be locked by safety wiring, by self-locking nuts conforming to MIL-DTL-32258, cotter pin, or other approved methods. Safety wire shall be installed in accordance with NASM33540 and shall conform

33、 to NASM20995. The use of lock washers, set screws or staking is not permitted unless specifically approved by the using service. However, staking shall not be used where failure of the staking will allow any loose part in the flow stream. 3.6.1 Coupling to fitting connection. Provision shall be mad

34、e for positive locking of the hose fitting to the coupling. The lock shall be of a reusable type. 3.7 Performance. The coupling shall function equally well with air flowing in either direction and shall satisfy the applicable requirements when tested in accordance with 4.6. 3.8 Attachment. The force

35、 required to engage the coupling to the nipple shall not exceed 25 pounds. Attachment shall be made by inserting the coupling onto the nipple by virtue of the handling ring (National Stock Number (NSN) 5340-01-323-5523) attached to the coupling collar. The coupling shall be so constructed that in th

36、e unattached position it is ready for instant connection to the aircraft nipple. It shall not be necessary to first retract the sleeve for connection. The coupling shall also be so constructed that it will not become partially locked on the nipple, allowing it to come off during the operation. Pulli

37、ng on the hose normally connected to the coupling shall not result in disengagement of the coupling. 3.9 Release. The coupling shall contain two methods of release from the aircraft nipple, a primary and secondary release. 3.9.1 Primary. Primary release of the coupling shall be in pulling back on th

38、e handling ring and not requiring a force of more than 30 pounds to release the coupling from the aircraft nipple. This release shall leave the coupling in position for the next attachment. 3.9.2 Secondary. In the event the handling ring is not in use, disconnect can be made by simply grasping the c

39、oupling sleeve and pulling it in the reverse direction. If for some reason a lanyard is required such shall be constructed of a chain complying with or equivalent to RR-C-271, Type 1, Grade C, Class 5, Style 2, zinc coated, .15625 (Number 2) size with a T-type handle attached to the free end. End co

40、nnecting links shall be of equivalent welded and zinc coated steel wire. The handle and 2 inch chain adjacent to the handle shall be covered with a heat resistant plastic or rubber covering. 3.9.3 Safety device. An automatic pressure lock and a self-closing automatic mechanical safety valve shall be

41、 provided for safety of operation. The pressure lock shall immobilize the primary and secondary release when the coupling is in the engaged position and under pressure. The pressure lock shall be so located that it is always accessible without disassembly of the coupling for manual deactivation whil

42、e the coupling is connected to the nipple. The automatic pressure lock shall prevent disconnect of the coupling when the pressure is above 10 psi. It shall only be necessary for the valve to sufficiently stop the air flow to prevent danger to operating personnel. The device incorporated shall not be

43、 adversely affected by gravitational forces. Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-MIL-DTL-25531F 8 3.10 Interchangeability. All parts having the same manufacturers part number shall be functionally and dimensionally interchangeable. The dr

44、awing number requirements of MIL-STD-31000 shall govern changes in the manufacturers part numbers. 3.11 Dimensions. The dimensions of the coupling shall be as shown in Figure 1. 3.12 Weight. The weight of the coupling shall be the minimum consistent with required performance, but shall not exceed 10

45、 pounds. 3.13 Finishes and protective coatings. 3.13.1 Finishes. The coupling shall have no painted surfaces. 3.13.2 Protective coatings. The coupling shall be adequately protected against corrosion by use of material or protective coatings acceptable to the procuring activity. 3.13.2.1 Anodizing. A

46、ll aluminum-alloy parts shall be anodized in accordance with MIL-A-8625. 3.14 Identification of product. Equipment, assemblies, and parts shall be marked for identification in accordance with MIL-STD-130. 3.15 Workmanship. The coupling shall be uniform in quality, clean, sound, smooth, and free from

47、 injurious defects. 4. VERIFICATION 4.1 Classification of inspections. The inspection requirements specified herein are classified as follows: a. Qualification inspection (see 4.2). b.
