Abstract

This Performance Oriented Packaging (POP) test was conducted to ascertain whether the Mk 735 Mod 0 Shipping and Storage Container (Drawing 5619367) meets the Packing Group 11 requirements specified by the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 49 CFR, Parts 107 through 178, dated 31 December 1991. The packaged commodity used for the test was a simulated load weighing 2.6 kg (5.8 pounds) which represents the current maximum commodity weight plus an additional 0.2 kg (0.5 pounds) to compensate for future growth variations in commodity and/or packaging. Gross weight of the loaded container was 4.2 kg (9.3 pounds). The test results indicate that the container has conformed to the POP requirements.
