ARMY TM 9-1290-365-24&P 1.5.11 Chairs. Chairs are generally not recommended within the protected areas. If used, due to physical impairment of personnel, they must be of conductive construction, making good electrical contact with the grounded floor material, and must have conductive seat covers. 1.6 CORROSION PREVENTION AND CONTROL. While corrosion is typically associated with rusting of metals, it can also include deterioration of other materials, such as rubber and plastic. Unusual cracking, softening, swelling, or breaking of the materials may be a corrosion problem. If a corrosion problem is identified, it should be reported using Standard Form 368, Product Quality Deficiency Report. Use of keywords such as “corrosion”, “rust”, "deterioration", or "cracking" will ensure that the information is identified as a CPC problem. Army users submit Product Quality Deficiency Report (SF 368) to: Commander, U.S. Army Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center ATTN: AMSTA-AR-WAW-C/Customer Feedback Center Rock Island, IL 61299-7300 FAX: DSN 793-6653, Commercial (309) 782-6653 E-mail: [email protected] 1.7 DESTRUCTION OF ARMY MATERIEL TO PREVENT ENEMY USE. Only the commanding officer can give the order to destroy materiel to prevent enemy use. Refer to TM 750-244-6. 1.8 DECONTAMINATION OF COMPONENTS. The components of the M93 MVS have been coated with a chemical agent resistant coating (CARC) to aid you in the decontamination (deliberate removal of a chemical agent hazard) by one or a combination of chemical treatments, evaporating with hot air absorbents, or other methods. There are two levels of decontamination. a. Partial - just enough contamination is removed or neutralized to allow soldiers to sustain operation. b. Complete - When contamination is reduced to a level that permits soldiers to operate for extended periods without wearing protective clothing; e.g., mask, gloves. The application of CARC has improved the efficiency by which the decontamination process can be accomplished. Therefore, it is important that you maintain this coating through the proper application of paint, which contains CARC properties, whenever you apply paint. For additional information and instructions pertaining to nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC) decontamination, refer to FM 3-5 (NBC Decontamination). Complete instructions regarding the application of CARC are provided in TM 43-0139 (Painting Instructions for Army Materiel). 1.9 REPORTING EQUIPMENT IMPROVEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS (EIR). If your M93 MVS needs improvement, let us know. Send us an EIR. You, the user are the only one who can tell us what you don't like about your equipment. Let us know why you don't like the design or performance. Put it on an SF 368 (Product Quality Deficiency Report) and mail it to: Commander, U.S. Army Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center ATTN: AMSTA-AR-WEP/Customer Feedback Center Rock Island, IL 61299-7300 FAX: DSN 793-6339, Commercial (309) 782-6339 or (309) 782-3065 E-mail: [email protected] 1-7
