MODUK DEF STAN 02-612 PDF

The main focus of this Def Stan is on the ferromagnetic (static magnetic) signature, but the signature control systems required to control the other electromagnetic influences (static electric, corrosion related magnetic, alternating magnetic, alternating electric) are also described in outline together with other sources of guidance applicable to degaussing system design.

The system engineering guide provides information on the process used to set signature goals, and how acceptance criteria for signature control systems will be set against these goals. The methods of electromagnetic signature measurement are also described in sufficient detail for the system designer to understand the existing facilities that are available to measure and assess vessel electromagnetic signatures.

Magnetic treatment and low magnetic construction are described to the extent necessary for their consideration in the process of designing degaussing systems.
