AN INVESTIGATION OF DELAY TIME VARIATION IN PRODUCTION LOADED MK 14 MOD 0 DELAY ACTUATORS,

Abstract

Efforts concerned an investigation of the cause of delay time variations in production loaded MK14 MOD O delay actuators for use in bomb fuze MK 257 MOD 0. Initial production actuators had erratic delay times which did not meet the specification requirements. The cause for the erratic delay times was determined to be gas leakage through the phenolic initiator plug. When the leakage was corrected the actuators met the specification requirements with ease.
