(e) Supervisors.
Laboratory supervisors will:
1. Assure that temperature and humidity recording systems are
maintained in continuous operation. A chart driven by electricity will be
considered "continuous."
While not an environmental requirement, it is
recommended that annunciators which provide audible notice of a drift from
temperature control be installed.
2. Assure that the recorded environment plots are monitored at
the beginning of the workday and after the lunch break. These observations
are especially important when environmental conditioning equipment is
returned to operation after an interruption.
When records indicate an
adverse trend, readings at more frequent intervals will be taken until
conditions again become stable.
3. Evaluate recorded departure from standard conditions to
determine cause and initiate prompt action to regain acceptable environment.
(2) Lighting.
No continuous record is required.
Take action if
indicated at monitoring intervals established by m(3) below.
(3) Vibration.
A continuous record is not required.
Take corrective
action as necessary.
(4) Dust.
The reports of dust counts made will be maintained for 1
year.
m. Monitoring.
(1) Temperature and humidity.
(a) Interval. The temperature and humidity recording system will
be checked at the start of each week.
(b) Instrumentation.
meets
the
following
performance specifications will be used in performing this check. However,
instruments already on hand or locally available may be used after
submitting details to AMCC and receiving approval.
Army calibration
laboratory standards may be used.
Thermometer, Liquid-in-Glass:
Minimum Scale Division:
0.1C(p.18F) ---for monitoring---Prime Recorder
0.5C(1F) ---for monitoring---Supplemental Recorder
