6.5 Star burning time. The star burning time is defined as the

time from the appearance of the first colored light from the

the light from the star has decreased-to approximately less than 10

percent of the peak brillance.

6.6 Cost of check test. The contracting officer should arrange

for the contractor to be reimbursed for the expense incurred in the

performance of the check tests. The tests shall be conducted at

Government expense without cost to the contractor who loaded the

primers or to the contractor assembling the primers in the signals

and shall not constitute a basis for rejection against either

contractor except where deterioration has occured as a direct result

of carelessness in handling, storage, etc., permitted while the

primer lots were under the jurisdiction of either contractor.

6.7 Signal assembly. The signal assembly will be considered

safe to transport provided no evidence exists of loose powder or

composition in the box, or missing, loose or protruding primers.

6.8 Signal assemblies . The signal assemblies will be

considered free of damage that will effect the intended function

provided the top seal has not been broken by movement or

displacement of the top, or the case side has not been distorted

sufficiently to prevent ejection of the star assembly.

6.9 Changes for Previous Issue. Asterisks are not used in this

revision to identify changes with respect to the previous issue, due

to the extensiveness of the changes.
