Materials to
39、 be installed in submarines are to be controlled to prevent off-gassing, which contaminates the atmosphere and can result in health hazards to personnel or deleterious effects on machinery. These controls are accomplished through the Submarine Material Control Program, which is described in the Nucl
40、ear Powered Submarine Atmosphere Control Manual, NAVSEA Technical Manual S9510-AB-ATM-010/(U). Under the Submarine Material Control Program, all materials considered for use on submarines require certification and assignment of a usage category. Under the certification process, candidate materials a
41、re selected by Navy activities or contractors, and a request for certification is submitted to the Naval Sea Systems Command, ATTN: SEA 05Z9, 1333 Isaac Hull Avenue, SE, Washington Navy Yard DC 20376-5221. The certification request is accompanied by detailed information, including descriptions of th
42、e material, method of application, usage and storage. A chemical analysis is conducted, which is normally accomplished through off-gas testing. The off-gas test is required to be conducted in a Government approved laboratory designated by the preparing activity. Information pertaining to this test r
43、equirement may be obtained from the Naval Sea Systems Command, ATTN: SEA 05Z9, 1333 Isaac Hull Avenue, SE, Washington Navy Yard DC 20376-5221. Based on the chemical analysis results, a usage category is assigned to the material defining whether, and to what extent, the material may be used on submar
44、ines. 7.4 Ordering data. The contract or order should specify the following: a. CID document number, revision, and CID PIN. b. Retroreflective sheeting daytime color. c.
