Located west of Rocket Assembly Building 661, Building 659 is a prefabricated RF shielded enclosure, the interior of which has been modified by the installa - tion of plywood and masonite walls and a plywood ceiling. The 9x9x 8 1/2-ft. building is insulated and air conditioned. The function of the RF shielding is to prevent accidental ignition of the igniter test samples. The test chamber, in which the igniter specimens are placed, consists of a 6-ft. length of 1O-in. diameter galvanized pipe. The pipe, mounted horizontally ona metal frame, enters the building from the outside. The end of the pipe inside the building is provided with a hinged plate which is closed during testing. The end of the pipe outside the building is fitted with a 90° elbow which opens downward to direct the blast,resulting from ignition,against the concrete slab on which the building rests. A workbench and storage cabinet are provided within the building. Lighting over the workbench is 50-ft. candles. A 115 volt, single phase weatherproof receptacle is located outside the building, adjacent to the door.
