NONEProcedure
Use alkaline rust remover solution.
Clean the strainer element and the metering plug ultrasonically (Alkaline Rust Remover Method). Refer to SPM TASK 70-13-02-300-503.
Use solution code 058
Process assembly in alkaline cleaner at 140 - 170 deg F (60 - 70 deg C) for 15 - 30 minutes. Do not exceed 60 minutes, ultrasonic process time.
NOTE
Alkaline rust solutions change the color nickel-cadmium from the typical olive to various shades of gray. The removal of the chromate conversion coating of the nickel-cadmium causes this color change. This color change does not reduce corrosion protection by nickel-cadmium.The purpose of chromate conversion coating is to give a visual indicator that the nickel-cadmium deposit has been diffused.
Ultrasonic clean the strainer element and the metering plug ultrasonically (Heavy Duty Alkali Cleaner Method). Refer to Cleaning-001 TASK 73-13-41-100-201.
Clean the strainer element and the metering plug by one of the procedures that follow:
Use clean water.
Water must be at ambient temperature.
Rinse with water.
Remove any sign of carbon with a stiff bristle, non-metallic brush.
Keep air pressure at 30 psi (206.8 kPa) maximum discharge pressure.
Dry the strainer element and the metering plug with filtered clean, dry, compressed air until dry
Examine the strainer element and the metering plug.
