Leakingin a manner that would not cause injury to the operator shallnot constitute failure in accordance with Specification F 1750.6.5.2 Amarkers performance may not be enhanced, includ-ing but not limited to increasing

28、the markers velocity withoutthe use of tools or disassembly.6.5.3 All LVP markers shall only operate in semi-automaticor pump mode and may not operate in other discharge modes.7. Performance Requirements7.1 Marker FunctionThe cocking or pumping mechanismof a LVP marker shall not cause a marker to di

29、schargeunintentionally while a marker is being cocked in accordancewith the manufacturers instructions. This does not limit theuse of “auto-triggers.” Markers shall be a pump or a semi-automatic, or both, as defined in this specification.7.2 Disabling DeviceDisabling devices shall be providedon all

30、LVP markers and all such devices shall keep from firingmarker whether or not the marker is cocked. All such devicesshall be clearly marked to indicate the “safe” and “fire” or “on”and “off” positions in accordance with 3.1.6. All such devicesshall be capable of preventing the markers from being dis-

31、charged when a weight of 13.6 kg (30 lb) is applied to thetrigger. Tests shall be conducted in accordance with 8.3.7.3 Accidental DischargeMarkers should not accidentallydischarge when exposed testing in accordance with 8.3.8. Test Methods8.1 No precision statement on any of the following testmethod

32、s is available at this time.8.2 Disabling Device Test:8.2.1 SignificanceThis method determines if the disablingdevice will withstand a 13.6 kg (30 lb) applied weight withoutfailure, causing the marker to discharge.8.2.2 ApparatusA trigger weight system having a 13.6 60.02 kg (30 6 0.05 lb) weight. A

33、rrange the weight system sothat the weights can be picked up by the trigger of the markerwith the marker in a vertical position, muzzle up. (A springgage capable of measuring the trigger force can be used insteadof the weight system.)8.2.3 Test SpecimenThe test specimen shall consist of anew LVP mar

34、ker selected in accordance with the manufactur-ers usual quality assurance practices.8.2.4 Procedure:8.2.4.1 Conduct the test at SATP.8.2.4.2 Conduct all tests without LVRM Projectiles in themarker.8.2.4.3 Place disabling device in “safe” position or theelectronic switch in the “off” position.8.2.4.

35、4 Apply a 13.6 kg (30 lb) load at the center point of thetrigger for 30 s with the load applied to the center of the faceof the trigger and remove the load.8.2.4.5 Put disabling device in the “fire” position or theelectronic switch in the “on” position. The marker must notdischarge as the safety is

36、disengaged.8.2.4.6 Test the marker for proper trigger and disablingdevice action.8.2.4.7 The marker passes the test if it withstands the loadapplied without causing the marker to discharge during theapplication of the load and does not discharge upon thedisengagement of the disabling device, and the

37、 disablingdevice and trigger function properly after testing.8.3 Accidental Discharge Test:8.3.1 SignificanceLVP markers should not dischargewhile their disabling device is disengaged.8.3.2 Test SpecimenThe test specimen shall consist of anew LVP marker, selected in accordance with the manufactur-er

38、s usual quality assurance practices.8.3.3 Procedure:8.3.3.1 Conduct the test at SATP.8.3.3.2 Attach a properly charged propellant source if re-quired in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. Testdischarge the marker.8.3.3.3 Leave the marker in the ready to discharge condi-tion.8.3.3.4 Susp
