Electromagnetic Radiation Hazards

COMBAT SYSTEM OPERATIONAL SEQUENCING SYSTEM (CSOSS) The Combat System Operational Sequencing S y s t e m ( C S O S S ) i s a c o l l e c t i o n o f m a n u a l s specifically designed for each class of ship. The manuals include step-by-step procedures and supporting material for combat system personnel to use in supporting the operation and maintenance of combat system equipment. Combat system readiness fundamentals are provided in the Combat System Technical Operations Manual (CSTOM). The CSOSS and CSTOM manuals cover a wide spectrum of readiness fundamentals for each class of ship. Joint instruction COMNAVSURFLANTINST 4790.20/ COMNAVSURFPACINST 4790.9 (series) provides directions to commanding officers for use of CSOSS. CSOSS is a readiness tool that provides the means to manage combat systems readiness around-the-clock, at-sea and in-port, in peacetime and in wartime. Consult your specific CSOSS User’s Guide for detailed instructions and explanations concerning the requirements of your ship class and related equipment. Your ship’s Combat Systems Officer of the Watch (CSOOW) and chain-of-command will help you find specific information about these manuals and CSOSS instructions. OTHER PUBLICATIONS Many other useful publications are available throughout the fleet. However, because of their vast number, we can describe only a few of them. You can identify many of these additional publications by checking the bibliographies of your primary publications. Electromagnetic Radiation Hazards Electromagnetic Radiation Hazards, NAVSEA OP 3565, is a two-volume manual that prescribes operating procedures and precautions to prevent injury to personnel, ignition of volatile vapors, and premature initiation of electroexplosive devices in ordnance in electromagnetic environments. Volume I is Hazards to Personnel, Fuel, and Other Flammable Material. Volume II is divided into two parts: Part I-Hazards to Unclassified Ordnance Systems, and Part II-Hazards to Classified Ordnance Systems . Volume I and Volume II, Part I are unclassified. All classified data is contained in Volume II, Part II. Procedures for Conducting a Shipboard Electromagnetic Interference Survey (Surface Ships) The Procedures for Conducting a Shipboard Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Survey (Surface Ships), MILSTD 1605 (SHIPS), provides detailed procedures for conducting an electromagnetic interference survey aboard surface ships. Navy Electricity and Electronics Training Series The Navy Electricity and Electronics Training Series (NEETS) is a multi-modular set of manuals that contain a vast amount of information. The current modules are shown in table 2-1. The NEETS modules are high-quality training aids and are excellent review publications on basic electronics for all Fire Controlmen. ALL Fire Controlmen should be thoroughly familiar with the NEETS modules. Equipment Identification Code Master Index The Equipment Identification Code Master Index, NAMSO 4790.E2579, provides a listing of equipment identification codes (EICs) in two sections. Section I lists EIC numbers in numerical sequence and identifies the equipment nomenclature assigned to each EIC n u m b e r. S e c t i o n I I l i s t s n o m e n c l a t u r e i n alphanumerical sequence and identifies the EIC numbers assigned to the equipment. Guide for User Maintenance of NAVSEA Technical Manuals The Guide for User Maintenance of NAVSEA Technical Manuals, NAVSEA S0005-AA-GYD- 030, is an important part of the technical library, because keeping the technical manuals aboard your ship up to date is essential to the operational readiness of your command’s systems and equipment. Electrostatic Discharge Control Handbook for Protection of Electrical and Electronic Parts, Assemblies, and Equipment The Electrostatic Discharge Control Handbook for Protection of Electrical and Electronic Parts, Assemblies, and Equipment (Excluding Electrically Initiated Explosive Devices) (Metric), MIL-HDBK 263, provides guidance, not requirements, for establishing and implementing an electrostatic 2-13
