Re: 4dr-este-tic Pressure Test of the Bare B54-'O (SADM) Uniet",

end of the MC1677 Underwater Pressure Renistent Case Con-
tnining the B54•0 Unit"t" .

Object of Test
— G7\
0 The object of this tact was to evaluate the B54-0 (SADM) Unit"t"
-r-- with a Phase B3, MC1321 Interval Timer, when subjected to the fourth
ed end sixth of a series of environments that duplicate the exposures
of Systems Confirmation Test Program Unit No. 4. These tests are
ydrostatic pressure tests.

Authorization for Test

This test was requested by Division 7146 in an Environmental Test Order

0
received March 28, 1963. Mr. J. A. Anderson was the coesultent. The
materiel for test was received April 4, 1963.
SUMMa r y

The B54-0 (SADM) Unit"t", bare and in the MC1677 Underwater Pressure
O Resistant Case vas subjected to a one-hour hydrostatic pressure test

No veter entered the SADM during the test of the bare unit.

Water filled the MC1677 and entered the Dial Cover of the SADM during
the test of the MC1677 containing the B54-0.

Fenct 4 onal N,ensurements and Methods

The weight of the SAD, bare and in the MC1677, was measured initially
end fellowing the pressure tests using a Trainer Scale.

- The pressure in the hydrostatic tankexternel to the unite was monitored

during each test using Baldwin Pressure Transducer (S 4065) and a -
Baldwin Sercin Indicator (Se53403) See Figure 1.

MCI677 Undereter Frc.irc aesistant Case in which the SADM, unit"t",

wes pieced, These units were each subjected to a hydrostatic pressure
test as follcrso:

are - Initially the SADN was visually inspected, new

g:case applied to ne 0-rings Of the MC1466 Lock Secured Cover
and Dial Cover (See Figure 4), and the unit weighed. The
SL)..M was then submerged in water in the 18-inch hydrostatic
pressure tank and eubjected to an external pressure of 24 psis
for one hour. A bottle of compressed nitrogen was used to
pressurize the hydrostatic tank for this test (See Figure 1),
Following completion of this test the SADM was removed from
the pressure tauk, the external surface of the unit dried,
and the unit weighsd. There was no change in weight of th,e
unit.. The dial cover and MC1466 cover were then removed end
the unit visually inspected. This inspection showed no
evidsne of water under either cover.

MC1677 with SADM - Initially the 1'iC1677 and SAD were visually
inspected and new grease applied to the 0-rings of the MC1677,
Dial Cover, cad MCL466 Cover (See Figure 4). The SAM was
than piasd in the MCI677, and the MC1677 containing the SADIi
ve!.ghad, The unit was then submerged in water in the 18. alch ,

hydroct,lzc pressure tank end subjected to an external pressure

of 94 psi for one hour. The same method was used for this
test as for the teat of the bare B54-0 (See Figure I), Fol
lowin: co:::pistion of this test the unit was removed from the
pressure tank, the external surface of the unit dried, and the
unit weed. The weight of the unit had increased by 3.69
pounds, The MC1677 See Figure 3), Dial Cover, and MC146t5
Cover (Sea irz cre /,) were removed from the SADM, and the aAaA
