Procedural Tests for Anti-G Protective Devices. Volume II. G-Sensitivity Tests

Abstract

In this volume, an examination of anti-G valve failures is reported, as well as the results of 9 short-term investigation dealing with acceleration protection equipment and studies on the USAFSAM Human Centrifuge. These studies involved: the CWU-9/P undergarments; the Statham PM131TC pressure transducer; the Ready Pressure Anti-G valve; the ALAR 'High flow' and 'Special' anti-G valves; accelerometer calibration, continuous ECG recording; control-center data distribution; closed-loop centrifuge control; and the Medilog recorder.
