QUALiTY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS Licensed by Information Handling Services_ - -_-I_- NIL-R-55231 NI - 977770b 0404505 b - MIL-R,-55231( EL) 4.1 Responsibility for inspection. Unless otherwise specified in the contract or pur- chase

33、order, the supplier is responsible for the performance of all inspection require- ments as specified herein. Except as other- wise specified, the supplier may utilize his own facilities or any commercial laboratory acceptable to the Government. The Govern- ment reserves the right to perform any of t

34、he inspections set forth in the specification where such inspections are deemed neces- sary to assure that supplies and services conform to prescribed requirements. 4.2 Classification of tests. Testing of the equipment for reliabiilty shall be classified as follows: (a) Preproduction reliability tes

35、ting. (b) Pilot-production reliability testing. (e) Quantity-production reliability test- ing. 4.3 Measurements. Measurements during reliability testing, and criteria of satisfactory performance, shall be as described in the in- dividual equipment specification or the con- tract. Reliability testing

36、 shall be entirely separate from preproduction evaluation and from quality-conformance inspection of sup- plies for Government acceptance. 4.4 Data handling. The contractor shall collect data in accordance with the provi- sions of The TG-3 Report, for inclusion in the test reports specified by 3.4.

37、4.5 Environmental and stress conditions. Environmental and stress conditions during reliability testing shall be in accordance with The TG-3 Report and as specified in the individual equipment specification or the con- tract. 4.6 Debugging. In order to exclude the early failure period, each item sub

38、jected to reliability testing shall first have been sub- jected to a suitable run-in period which is satisfactory to the authorized representative of the contracting officer. 4.7 Preventive maintenance and repair. _- No preventive maintenance shall be per- formed during reliability testing except th

39、at scheduled before initiation of the testing. The schedule shall be subject to approval by the authorized representative of the contract- ing officer. In addition, no adjustment or re- pair shall be made on a test item except that necessary to enable a failed item to meet the measurements specified

40、 during reliability testing ; however, except as otherwise speci- fied, adjustment of operator controls shall be permitted at any time. 4.8 Related inspection. Items used for re- liability testing shall first undergo and pass the normal, short-time inspection (usually called “Group A”) cited in the

41、individual equipment specification, as well as any other inspection required by that specification to be performed in connection with the relia- bility testing. Such inspection shall be re- peated after completion of reliability testing, before the test items are offered for accept- ance on contract

42、. 4.9 Reliability testing. Reliability testing shall be performed in accordance with The TG3 Report and as follows : 4.9.1 Preproduction relhbility testing. When preproduction reliability testing is specified, it shall be performed concurrently with other preproduction testing on addi- tional items

43、as specified in the contract. 4.9.1.1 Procedure I. When procedure I is specified, the contractor shall conduct in- formatory testing for the number of oper- ating hours specified in the contract. 4.9.1.2 Procedure II. When procedure II is specified, preproduction reliability testing shall continue u

44、ntil pilot production testing for reliability is initiated or decision is reached, whichever occurs first. If the test ends in a reject decision, necessary correc- tions shall be made in all the items on pre- production reliability test and the test shall be started over again. No other modifica- ti

45、ons shall be made except as agreed to by the authorized representative of the contract- ing officer. Licensed by Information Handling Services4.9.2 Plot-prodzcctioIt reliability testing. When the pilot production phase is specified, the procedure shall be as described in this paragraph. The test ite

46、ms shall be in addition to those used for pilot-production quality- conformance inspection. Pilot-production re- liability testing shal be initiated as soon as pilot production items become available. If any test item is modified during this test, al1 remaining items in the test group shall be modif

47、ied at the same time, to incorporate the change. The nature of the modification shall be evaluated by the contractor and the authorized representative of the contracting officer, and agreement reached as to whether or not the modification has invalidated data already generated during the pilot-produ

48、c- tion reliability test. If it is determined that the data have been invalidated, the con- tractor shall return to time zero and start the pilot-production reliability test over again. 4.9.2.1 PTocedure I. When procedure I is specified, the number of items to be sub- jected to reliability testing a

49、nd the total operating time (“up”-time) shall be as speci- fied in the contract. 4.9.2.2 PTocedwe II. When procedure II is specified, the contractor shall test a suffi- cient number of items from pilot production to complete the pilot-production reliability testing within the time schedule cited in the contract. (Table 2 of The TG-3 Report shows the maximum operating time required for a decision.) Test schedules shall allow for time when the test items are not in operation (cooling time, repair time, etc.) 4.9.3 Qzutntity-p.i.oduction Teltbility test- hg. Whe
