The contractor shall design and supply inspection equipment compatible with the “Test Methods and Procedures” specified in 4.5, and with the “Component Inspection” requirements of Specification MIL-F-13926. Concept, con- struction, materials, dimension
33、s, and toler- ances used in design of test equipment shall be so selected and controlled as to insure that the test equipment will permit positive re- jection of a product which exceeds the pre- scribed tolerance limit, and will reliably indicate acceptability of a product which does not exceed 90 p
34、ercent of the prescribed tol- erance limit. Construction shall be such as to facilitate routine calibration of the equip- men t. 4.4.2.2 Equipment to perform operating temperatures test. The test equipment shall be in accordance with the “Test Facilities” requirements which include pertinent volume
35、and tolerances governing the environmental test conditions and measurements contained in Specification MIGF-13926 for the oper- ating temperatures specified in 3.4.1. 4.5 Test methods and procedures. 4.5.1 Fabrication. The tripod shall be visually inspected for proper fabrication in compliance with
36、the requirements specified in 5.2. Dimensional checks shail be made by use of standard measuring equipment. This inspection shall be performed on the control samples (4.3). 4.5.2 Operating temperatures. The operat- ing temperature test consists of exposing the tripod to the temperatures indicated in
37、 3.4.1 by means of equipment complying with the requirements of 4.4.2.2. While at these tem- peratures, each tripod shall meet the applica- ble performance requirements as specified in 3.4.1. 4.5.3 Perf ormance. 4.5.3.1 Cradle movement (M15). The tripod shall be firmly set. The tripod shall then be
38、functionally and manually tested for the requirements of 3.5.1.1 by manually oper- ating and noting that movement is without bind or looseness. 4.5.3.2 Cradle support (M15). The tripod shall be functionally and manually tested for the requirements of 3.5.1.2. When the thumb- screw of the leg assembl
39、y is tightened there shall be no apparent movement of the cradle assembly. It shall move freely when thumb- screw is released. The cradle assembly shall be secured at any extension, and when the thumbscrew of the collar assembly is tight- ened there shall be no apparent movement of the cradle assemb
40、ly. 4.5.3.3 Leg support (Ml5). The test shall be accomplished with the aid of standard measuring equipment. The leg hinge assem- blies shall be stiff enough to support the weight specified in 3.5.1.3 with the legs of the tripod displaced from the vertical as specified in 3.6.1.3. 4.5.3.4 Clamping sc
41、rews (Ml7). The test may be performed with the legs of the tripod set at least on a 30-inch circle. Apply the re- quired weight as specified in 3.5.2.1. The clamping assembly shall function properly, and securely clamp the legs at any extension when the winged screws are tightened. When the winged s
42、crews are released, the legs shall slide freely. 4.5.3.5 Locking levers (Mir). The tripod shall be functionally and manually tested for the requirements of 3.6.2.2, utilizing the same test setup as in 4.6.3.4. The locking lever when in locked position shall hold with suffi- cient tension to prevent
43、its respective leg from being jarred from its set position or displaced. 5. PREPARATION FOR DELIVERY 5.1 Packaging, packing and marking.
