About this file
This document provides calibration and shelf life management requirements for various equipment used by the Consequence Management Support Center (CoMSupCen). Over 250 items are intensively managed, including identification devices, radiation detection equipment, gas monitors, pipettes, batteries, filters, and protective suits. Most items have Type I shelf lives ranging from 3 to 60 months, requiring disposal after expiration. Some items like filters have Type II shelf lives allowing inspection and testing to extend storage up to 120 months. The document specifies calibration intervals for items ranging from 90 days to 5 years, and outlines procedures for submitting items for repair or replacement through supply channels.

The above page of shelf life items is just a small snapshot of the over 250 intensively mangaged items in the warehouse. Most items are classifed as Type I shelf life and must be destroyed or disposed of when expired. Some items are classified as Type II shelf life and can be re-inspected and/or tested to extend the storage life past their expiration/re-inspection dates.

| Excerpt of DOD Manual 4140.27-M, Page 1-xxv: | |
| Shelf-Life Item. An item of supply possessing deteriorative or unstable characteristics to the degree that a storage time period must be assigned to ensure that it will perform satisfactorily in service. All shelf-life items are classified as one of the following two types: |
TYPE I - An individual item of supply, which is determined through an evaluation of technical test data and/or actual experience, to be an item with a definite non-extendible period of shelf-life. One exception is Type I medical shelf-life items (FSC 6505), which may be extended if they have been accepted into and passed testing for extension through the DoD/FDA Shelf-Life Extension Program (SLEP).
TYPE II - An individual item of supply having an assigned shelf-life time period that may be extended after completion of visual inspection/certified laboratory test, and/or restorative action.
