E n. - The tracer as referred to in this specification consists of two tracer charge pellets and a igniter pellet compressed in a tracer cup. III 6.3 6.4 ture. - The ignit
36、er and tracer compositions, and the pellets formed thereof, are hygroscopic and will deteriorate rapidly when exposed to moisture. Small amounts of moisture present in or absorbed by the compositions or pellets, will eventually result in unsatisfactory functioning. It is highly desirable that the in
37、gredients, compositions, andpellets be carefully safeguarded from exposure to moisture and humid atmospheres. For insurance of a satisfactory tracer function, it is recommended that the blending and pelleting buildings be air conditioned in a manner which will hold the humidity of the atmosphere les
38、s than 60 percent. 6.5 Alter nate test ina p rocedu res. - Alternative testing procedures may be proposed by the contractor when such testing and procedures provide a5 a minimum the quality assurance prrivisions specified herein. Prior to applying alternative procedures, the contractor shall describ
39、e them in a written proposal and shall demonstrate that their effectiveness is equal to or better than the quality assurance provisions specified herein. Alternative testing procedures must have the approval of the Government Contracting Officer prior to use. 6.6 ShiDpina ,- If shipment is necessary
40、, Department- of Transportation (DOT) Class and Marking cited on the affected item drawings is applicable. Material must be adequately and properly packaged in accordance with applicable DOT Packaging Requirements (paragraph 173.61, CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS (CFR) Title 49) . O 6.7 Hazard notice.
41、- The tracer and igniter charge and the tracer and igniter charge composition described herein are flammable and/or explosive and consequently present hazards in manufacture, handling, storage and shipment. The contractor should recognize these hazards and take appropriate measures to guard and prot
42、ect against fire, explosion, adverse environment, corrosive atmosphere, rough handling, and electrically induced incidents. 6.8 Prawinas . -Drawings listed in Section 2 of this specification in the heading U.S. Army Armament Research and Development Engineering Center (ARDEC) may also include drawin
