TM's as listed in TB 43-180 and this TB are met.
2.
DA Label 163 is:
aa. Used when any of the following conditions exist:
i. Range(s) could not be properly calibrated to RADIAC instrument tolerance,
but the range(s) is otherwise serviceable.
ii. RADIAC instrument was calibrated against a different standard or utilized
a different calibration technique than identified in appropriate TM or TB (as listed in TB
standards.
bb. Annotated in Blocks 7a and 7b with the information that required its use.
See example below.
a. PARAMETER/VALUE
b. TOLERANCE/UNCERTAIN
40%
500 mR/hr range
NOTE
When a TACTICAL instrument cannot be calibrated to within
proper tolerance, but range(s) is otherwise serviceable, that
instrument will be considered unserviceable after the CALBR
VOID date on the DA Label 163. The RADIAC instrument
must be repaired or replaced prior to recalibration.
(4) Annotate DA Form 7372 in accordance with instructions given in TB 750-25,
Appendix D.
(5) Promptly return instrument calibration report, and attached DA Form 7372
(and DA Form 2417, Instrument Rejection, if applicable) to the using organization.
(6) Maintain a library/file consisting of the following:
(a) RADIAC instrument (owner's) manual for the ACTIVE-type
instruments encountered.
(b) Appropriate Army TM's and TB's associated with TACTICAL instruments.
(c) Appropriate radiological safety publications (Appendix A).
