9.50a,m, lath April, to consider contract specification M.G.O.ll5 forthe supply of 22 kw. searchlight generating sets. p .j Present - Major P.A. Billie )Captain R,M, Huey ) - Z. Branch, Department of the ArmyLieut. H.
Beresinsky )(10g0Mr. R.A. Gladwell - Chairman, Elect. Advisory Panel,Ministry of Munitions as representativeof Director of Ordnance Production.Mr. H.G. Small - Ordnance Production Directorate.Mr. G.B. Clerk —
Standardewaygood Ltd.The minutes of this meeting are to include the initialleddraft copies of specification No. MGO.ll5/Australia together withattached schedules A, C and D. In addition to what is containedinuthese drafts
the following discussion took place. Reference tovarious clauses means clauses of specification No. MGO.ll5.It was pointed out by Major Billie that specification MGO.ll5is a contract specification and not a tender
specification also thatit is based on the original Army tender specification MGO.ll/186written in June, 1940, on information and experience gained in themeantime and on the information supplied in Dtandard-
Waygoodstenders for this contract. .It wascation wouldthe trailer,thought thatMr. Gladwellpointed out by Major Billis that a separate specifi- .be written for the fitting of the generator set toprobably by the trailer contractor. Mr.
Gladwellsome mention of this should be made in clause (1)suggested that the manufacturer might like thesatisfaction of seeing set run after mounting on trailer. Mr.Clerk disagreed on grounds of there being a definite limit
tocontractors responsibility. It was decided to n t i *1_ j o nc ude anyclause dealing with parallel operation of these sets after Mr. Glad-well raised this point.With regard to noise, Major Billis stated that Army GeneralStaff had
not a hI pproac ed C.M.A. with a request for reduction innoise. Mr. Gladwell advised that skewing blades of the generator Pfan had considerably reduced noise in the Skelley set.$ome discussion ensued on the question of
Ford V.8 endinet be b M " 'Vi Rum ere and hr. Clerk was reassured by Fords, Geelong,Uconcerning the supply of heavy Duty Truck Type engines (No.CO9WFS—6098-B) and the necessity for a running in period of
notmore than 15 hours. Mr. Gladwell, however, advised of hisexperience with 25 K.V.A. sets requiring up to 20 hours running ina d st-t 1 + Q 'n a ec ,h.t piston clearances differed among various Fordengines.Considerable
discussion ensued on various governors, notablythe Fesca A Clo. . r. a_adwell informed the meeting that the S.E.C. hadhad satisfactory test figures with these governors on the 25 K.VhLsets, but could not state the name of
the mQpufQ"f1 Q» T_ L ~ ~»~ _ “J is- wv‘Lrv~I Mr. Clerkgave some idea of the performance of the Howard governor.
K/A ‘f /ji//// /4/41’ i 2 ‘II 7 On resumption of the meeting on 18th April, 1941, Mr. Gladwellraised the question of standardization of governors, Major Billisgclnted out that the 22 kW. sets will be many times the numberof 25
K.V.A. sets required and that no 25 K.V.A. Sets Of th8final design had yet been produced. For these reasons and toprovide an extra reserve of power the speed in clause (7) waslaid down at 1800 r.p.m. -Major Billis pointed
out that finalization of specificationMGO.l15 would allow Standard-Waygood to get ahead with the jobbut need not necessarily result in non-standardisation. In anycase many jobs cannot be completely standardized without
seriousdelay to production.Mr. Gladwell pointed out that the Electrical Advisory Panelhad regarded standardization as of paramount importance and thatthey had been working on the 22kW. set over six months.Mr. Clerk
pointed out that hold-ups in general were largelydue to efforts made by the Ministry of Munitions to standardize.It was agreed by all present that it was of paramount importance toarrive at decisions permitting Standard-
Waygood to proceed withthe job.Major Billis stated that Army had asked Ordnance Productionin “anuary for a meeting to be held to finalize the contractspecification. Mr. Gladwell stated that D.O.P. had (1) requestedthe
Advisory Panel to write a specification embodying theirexperience with Skelley sets, (ll) requested Mr. Gladwell toconfirm this specification with °tandard-Waygood.Mr. Clerk stated that Mr. Gladwell a preached him on
January15. with a new specification No. OPD/M/20/g also that on February12. they received a letter from New South Wales Board of AreaManagement as a preliminary advice asking them to accept the jobon the dual basis
of specification MGO.ll/186 with corrigenda andOPD/M/185/lA as outlined in Standard-Waygoods letter of February4 and February 7.Major Billis pointed out that OPD/M/1A had never beenapproved by the Army and in fact
had not been seen until considerablelater than the date mentioned, viz. Feb. 12.The question of sprung pivot meters was discussed and Mr.Clerk stated that firm deliveries of such items as instrumentswas most important to
the Contractor and that considerabledifficulty was experienced during manufacture of 4-kW. generatorsets with delivery of instruments from Australian manufacturers.Ihe question of lighting the trailer was raised and it
waspointed out that this would be entirely separate from the lightingarrangements on the generating set.The schedules A, C and D were discussed and Mr. Clerkpointed out that the question of weight of the flywheel could
not bedefinitely settled. It was agreed, however, that the maximumweight should be 2500 lbs. The overall dimensions of the setwere settled on the basis of telegraphed advice received by Mr.Clerk during the progress of the
meeting. MP- Clerk Stated Choice Ofcast or fabricated generator frame not yet finally decided,The meeting concluded at l u.m.“W Q2 /4:;i§4l' Lieut. /4/41 ‘' ’ /4/41ry , _, ~ yr, ; /4/41{’(’ '\
