OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL

1.14

The manual shall address all components and aspects of the EM shielding and

shall include, but not be limited to, the following:

a.

A complete set of assembly drawings to include penetration

locations and installation details.

b.

The construction specification on EM shielding.

c.

Shield penetration schedule.

d.

Power/signal filter schedule.

e.

Test plan.

f.

The prepared preventive maintenance instructions for periodic

inspection, testing and servicing, lubrication, alignment,

calibration, and adjustment events normally encountered. Complex

preventive maintenance events shall be extracted from or shall

refer to detailed vendor or manufacturer data. This information

shall be derived from an evaluation of engineering data

considering local environmental conditions, manufacturer's

recommendations, estimated operating life for the specific

application and use of the equipment, and types of job skills

available at the operating site.

g.

Spare parts data approved and verified by the shielding specialist

prior to submission. The data shall include a complete list of

recommended parts and supplies with current unit prices and source

of supply.

h.

Provide a list of hardness critical items (HCI) requiring periodic

inspection to maintain EM shield integrity. Hardness critical

items are those components and/or construction features which

singularly and collectively provide specific levels of HEMP

protection, such as the EM shield, surge arresters, EM shielded

doors, shield welding, electrical filters, honeycomb waveguides,

and waveguides-below-cutoff.
