Study of the effects of humidity on the W80 MC3268/3269 trajectory-sensing signal generators during stockpile laboratory testing
This report documents the study that was performed from October 1993 through June 1994 to determine the effects of humidity on the W80 MC3268/3269 Trajectory-Sensing Signal Generators (TSSGs) during the test bed build and laboratory test processes. Mason and Hanger, Silas Mason Co., performs the disassembly and inspections along with the test bed build processes at the Pantex Plant in Amarillo, Texas. The laboratory testing of the TSSGs is performed at Sandia`s Weapons Evaluation Test Laboratory (WETL), located at the Pantex Plant. This report summarizes the historical sequence of events, the engineering analyses and decisions, and the future plans for controlling the ingress of moisture into the TSSGS during laboratory testing.
