Facility for studying long-term effects of vacuum on materials described in report. Vacuum storage system maintains specimens at constant temperature and high vacuum. Enables specimens to be removed easily and safely for analysis. Nitrogen storage system maintains specimens at 77 degree F in pure, dry nitrogen gas under gauge pressure of 2 to 4 psi. Enables comparison of control specimens with specimens exposed to vacuum. Instrumentation-and-control system measures and records operating parameters and generates control signals and alarm indications as necessary.
