Explain the Magazines
Mags are protected by Mag Spray. The Mag spray is may be activated manually at the 3-way valves, solenoids, remotely, or automatically. The system is focused around the 3-way valve and the various methods of opening it.
Manual activation via the 3-way valve is simple. Remove the pin and turn the indicator to the open position for 30 sec. When complete spraying; the valve must be turn to the close position prior to returning to the neutral position. These sequences of closing a manually activated valve must be carried out in ensure the system may be fired remotely and automatically.
The automatic system is activated using a heat detector. At 58 °C the heat detector will send a signal to the DCS to place the ship into smoke control. At 62 °C the heat detector will send a signal to the DCS to fire the Mag Spray. This is accomplished by sending an electrical signal to the solenoid which opens and allows pilot pressure to operate the 3-way valve.
The solenoids may be operated manually as well and through push buttons on the DCC. The DCC is a two finger operation, one to hold the open button and the other the hold the plunger for a given mag spray.
All Mag Sprays are fitted with an isolation valve which is usually pinned open. The solenoids are co-located in the same zone as the isolation valve and are throughout 3 deck.
Explain the Chaff Magazine
The Chaff Mag is located in 01E. This Mag Spray is different than the others in the scene that the chaff rockets are located in the cabinets within the Chaff Mag. The Mag Spray nozzles are located within each of these lockers. The isolation is in 3E O/S the steam line and the 3-way valve is in 01 D on the false bulkhead FWD of Radar Room No. 1.
Explain the 57mm Magazine
The 57mm Mag is located in 4C. This Mag Spray is also different in that it also has nozzles located in the FSB lobby to cool the ammo lift. The isolation valve is located in the 3C lobby and the 3-way valve is O/S the door to the 57mm Mag.
Explain the Port and Starboard Torpedo Magazine

Discuss the Floodable Lockers
3.1.2.1. Flag Deck (3)
There are three floodable lockers on the flag deck. The isolation valve for these lockers may be found in the 2E passageway O/S FWD Switchboard.
3.1.2.2. Port Mezzanine Deck (2)
There are three lockers here, only the after two are floodable. The isolation valve is located on the AFT Hanger face, above the door entering the 1J lobby.
3.1.2.3. Stbd Hanger Lobby (1)
There are two lockers in the 1J lobby, of which only the after one is floodable. The isolation valve is located on the AFT Hanger face, above the QM’s Lobby.
3.1.3. Non-Floodable Lockers (6)
There are a total of seven non-floodable lockers on HMCS VILLE DE QUEBEC, they are not floodable because they often contain smoke which are activated by salt water. They are located as follows;
1. Port Bridge Wing (1)
2. Stbd Bridge Wing (1)
3. Port Mezzanine Deck (1, FWD Most)
4. Stbd Mezzanine Deck (1)
5. Port Hanger Lobby (1, FWD Most)
6. Quarter Deck (1)
Discuss Ammunition Policy and regulations
3.1.5.1. Limitations
1. 0 °C - 32 °C are normal range, action must be taken to ensure these limits are maintained.
2. Greater than 49 °C for 24 hrs requires a UCR be raised
3. Relative Humidity must be limited to levels less than 95%
3.1.5.2. Rounds
Ammo rounds should be conducted weekly in home port and daily in foreign port. Rounds should be conducted during peak temperature hours. Temperature, Relative Humidity, Contents, and Damages shall be recorded.
Discuss Radiation Hazard
There are two types are RadHaz; Ionizing and Non-Ionizing radiation. Ionizing radiation is electromagnetic waves at frequencies above 300 GHz and will cause damage to personnel on a cellular level. Non-Ionizing radiation are electromagnetic waves between 3 kHz and 300 GHz; this is cause injury to personnel primarily through RF burns and re-radiation.
If work is being conducted on or around an item which may re-radiate, all HF transmitters within 100m must discontinue.
3.2.3. Types of Non-Ionizing Radiation
3.2.3.1. Hazard of Electromagnetic Radiation to Personnel (HERP)
Instructions are given in MARCORD 43-2 Annex B. This annex provides the Minimum Exposure Limit (MEL) for each emitter fitted to Halifax Class Vessels. This should be consulted prior to allowing any man-aloft weather on our ship or another.
3.2.3.2. Hazard of Electromagnetic Radiation to Ordinance (HERO)
Instructions are given in MARCORD 43-2. The safe distance for HERO Safe Ammo is 1m and 5m for HERO Unsafe Ammo When Ammo/ De-Ammo, all emitters will be off. This will not detonate the Ammo, it will damage the Ammo.
3.2.3.3. Hazard of Electromagnetic Radiation to Fuel (HERF)
Instructions are given in MARCORD 43-2. In the case of fuels the flash point is the concern for HERF. The fuel is safe if the flash point is above 60 °C, which is the case of DFO and JP5. However, below 60 °C the Fuel is not HERF Safe and must maintain a MEL of 10m. Any unknown fuels should be treated as if their flash points are below 60 °C.
3.2.3.4. Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
This is not strictly a safety issue, it may cause interference with other systems which may become damaged.
