Pressure Test of PPP-C-96 Cans.

Abstract

The Air Force Packaging Evaluation Agency (AFPEA) is aware that overprotection is a costly condition that exists in some packaging applications. In an attempt to find lower cost packaging that is qualified to provide equal protection within a certain limit, most cost effective containers are currently being investigated. One such type of container was sent to the AFPEA from Ogden ALC, Hill AFB UT, to determine if this sample was structurally designed to withstand 15 psig pressure without leaking. All container specimens (four each) tested under this project were found to be adequate. There were no leaks found when tested according to the appropriate military specifications. (Author)
