DCSSP Flashcards

1
Q

Assuming and Relieving

A

All logs must be reviewed by DCWS/EWS and EDO/ECOW. All abnormal conditions will be annotated in the logs and are a turn over item. CHT will be turned over at 15%. All carry items are to be turned over along with DCSSP Hydra.

A

Halon is activated by pulling the safety pin and raising the lever on either the local or remote bulk head mounted 5-pound CO2 actuator.

87
Q

How long is the time delay for halon discharge after actuation and why is there a delay?

A

The time delay is 60 seconds to allow time for ventilation to shut down prior to halon being discharged. The delay for unmanned spaces is 30 seconds and is to allow time for any ventilation to shut down before halon is discharged.

88
Q

What is a salt water sprinkling system?

A

It provides salt water from a firemain to sprinklers in various spaces such as magazines, alternate weapons assembly, crew messrooms, RAM mounts, stores conveyers, tire storerooms, solid waste processing rooms, and flammable gas cylinder storerooms.
