The B-52 ALQ-155 R/T Shipping and Storage Container (CNU-552/E) is a sealed, welded aluminum, controlled breathing, reusable container. The container is engineered for the physical and environmental protection of the ALQ-155 R/T during worldwide transportation and storage. The container consists of a base and a completely removable cover equipped with the special features listed below. The base is a one piece skid/double walled base extrusion with forklift openings, humidity indicator, pressure equalizing valve and desiccant port for easy replacement of desiccant (controls dehumidification). A silicone rubber gasket and quick release cam-over-center latches create a water/air-tight seal at the base-cover interface. Stacking pads on the lid provide for stacking of like containers up to 16 feet high. Polyethylene foam (4 pcf) cushions provide shock and vibration protection for the item to 59 G's. Sheer resistant, aluminum pins and lock washers hold the cushions in place to the interior of the container.
