    SECTION IINTRODUC TION

    1- i. PURPOSE.l-Z. This manual provides a description of boilerplate 13, which is the firstApollo vehicle used in the booster compatibility test series. (See figure i-i.)Boilerplate modules economically simulate flight rated modules for test purposes,incorporating only the structures and systems required for a particular test.These modules are combined to form spacecraft configurations for selected tests.Each boilerplate configuration is described in a separate manual.

    I-3. SCOPE OF MANUAL.

    I-4. A physical description of the overall boilerplate and its major components(modules) is provided in illustration, text, and tabular form. System operationis described in text, tables, and diagrams. Sufficient detail is provided toidentify the configuration of the flight test article and to differentiate it fromother boilerplates used in subsequent flight tests. The manual is system-orientedwith emphasis on system configurations intended for use in ultimate spacecraftflight-rated systems. Research and development (R&D) systems are treated ingross terms and in case of customer furnished equipment reference is made tocustomer documents for detailed information. No recovery of boilerpiate 13 isplanned; therefore, no complete flight rated systems are installed.

    1-5. ARRANGEMENT OF MANUAL.

    1-6. The manual is in six sections. This section contains information relativeto the manual only and includes references to supplementary documents. SectionII contains a physical description of the complete flight test article and operationaldescription of equipment other than R&D instrumentation and launch escapesystem. Abrief description of the launch vehicle Saturn I is included. SectionsIII, IV, V, and VI provide operational description of the launch escape system,communications and instrumentation system, environmental control system, andelectrical power system.

    2-11. STRUCTURE. The truss-type tower structure is the base of the launchescape assembly. It is an open frame of welded titanium tubing covered withsilica-filled Buna-N rubber for thermal insulation. Each of the four legs isattached to the command module by an explosive bolt. (See figure 2-2. )Attachments at the top of eachtower leg facilitate tower alignment. (See figure2-3.) The structural skirt is attached between the top of the tower structureand the base of the launch escape motor. The housing of the launch escapemotor forms the structure between the structual skirt and the interstagestructure. The interstage structure (figure 2-4), is a welded-sheet aluminumstructure which houses the tower jettison motor exhaust nozzles and variouselectrical components. Two access doors facilitate installation and removalof the components. The ballast housing and the nose cone are of welded Inconelsheet construction, and are bolted together to form a single conical structureto house the sheet lead ballast and the Q-ball. (See figure 2-5.)

    Z-I2. LAUNCH ESCAPE SYSTEM MOTORS. The three launch escape systemmotors are stacked above the tower structure. Boilerplate 13 launch escapemotor and pitch control motor are inert. The tower jettison motor utilizes astar-grain solid propellant of a polysulfide ammonium perchlorate formulation.The jettison motor has two fixed nozzles. Passive thrust vector control is usedto obtain proper jettison trajectories.

    2-13. LAUNCH ESCAPE SYSTEM ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICCOMPONENTS. The electrical and electronic components in the launch escapesystem consist of launch escape sequencers (contained in the command moduleand on the structural skirt), hot wire initiators, and associated wiring harnessesand attachements. Redundant wiring harnesses are bonded to the exterior of thelaunch escape motor, and associated redudant harnesses are integral to thetower structure. Each tower structure harness has a breakaway plug that allowsthe harness to detach itself from the command module when the launch escapetower is jettisoned. The wiring harnesses provide the means of connecting therocket motor and separation circuits with the sequence controllers, and theinstrumentation components with the communications equipment.

    2-14. SEQUENCERS. Three sequencers are provided to program the sequenceof events during the mission. Two tower sequencers located on the structuralskirt are identical in size and shape. Each tower sequencer is approximately2. 5 inches in width, 8.25 inches deep, and 3. 75 inches high. See figure 2-3for location. A mission sequencer is installed in the command module. It isa single enclosed assembly approximately 15 inches in width, 8.25 inches deep,and 7 inches high.

    2-15. HOT WIRE INITIATORS. The two hot wire initiators for the towerjettison motor are threaded plug devices. Both initiators contain the electricalcircuitry and explosive necessary to detonate the motor igniters. The initiatorbody is 1 inch long with 0.75-inch flange, 0.45 inch from the threaded end.Threads are located on one end and an electrical connector at the other end.The electrical connector contains four pins to supply power to two independentbridge wire circuits.

    2-16. LAUNCH ESCAPE TOWER UMBILICAL CONNECTORS. Two electricalumbilical connectors join the electrical systems of the launch escape assemblyand the command module. These connectors are located on the plane ofseparation adjacent to the escape tower leg wells of the forward heat shield ofthe command module. (See figure Z-2.) The receptacle portion of the connectoris attached to the command module structure. The plug is attached to thenearest tower leg by a lanyard. When the escape tower separates from thecommand module the lanyard pulls the plug from the receptacle. The plugs arepart of the launch escape tower wiring installation and separate with the tower.

    2-20. FORWARD HEAT SHIELD. The forward heat shield forms the apex ofthe command module. It consists of a sheet-metal cover and a fiberglasshoneycomb radome assembled together, with the assembly bolted to the com-mand module. There are no provisions for separating the forward heat shield,since recovery is not planned.

    2-21. AFT HEAT SHIELD. The aft heat shield forms the convex base of thecommand module. It is constructed of aluminum honeycomb bonded to the innerand outer skins of the laminated fiberglass and is attached to the primarystructure of the command module by four adjustable struts. Three of the strutsare dummy shock struts (figure 2-9) installed at longerons No. 2, No. 3, andNo. 4. The tension tie at No. 1 longeron contains a flange that allows it to beused as a dummy strut and a tension tie. Two holes are provided in the shieldfor installation of the umbilical electrical connectors. Six holes in the shieldallow the command module bearing points to protrude, and three holes permitattachment of the command module to the service module. (See figure 2-11.)

    2-2Z. SERVICE MODULE AND ADAPTER. (See figure 2-i0.)

    2-Z3. The service module includes the insert and is used in the boilerplate 13configuration primarily to transmit loads from the launch vehicle to the space-craft. The command module rests on the service module at six compressionbearing points. Three tension tie bolts hold the command module matingbearing points firmly seated. The six bearing bolts are adjusted to facilitatecommand module to service module alignment. An exterior non-structuralfairing is located between the command module and the service module. Thefairing houses a non-functioning separation mechanism, a support structurefor distributing basic loads imposed by the command module to the servicemodule, and fixed umbilical connections between the two modules. The com-mand module and service module will not be separated during the mission; and,therefore, no pyrotechnics are installed. The service module-to-insert andinsert-to-adapter interfaces are joined with 12 bolts each. The adapter isbolted to the instrument unit using 32 bolts. The holes for these 3Z bolts arecadmium plated to provide electrical bonding.

    2-30. COMMAND MODULE TO SERVICE MODULE TENSION TIE BOLTS.(See figure 2-11.)2-31. The tension tie bolts utilized to bolt the command module to the servicemodule are steel rod and turnbuckle assemblies. The assemblies are cadmiumplated. The turnbuckle is used to preload the command module to the servicemodule compression bearing points. The assemblies are approximately 42 incheslong. Two of the assemblies use 7/8-inch hexagon steel rods 28.5 inches long.The third tie at longeron No. 1 uses l-i/4-inch round steel rod 28.6 inches longon which hexagonal wrench flats have been machined. No pyrotechnic chargesare installed on boilerplate 13 configuration. The tension tie at longeron No. 1also is utilized as a vertical strut to help hold the aft heat shield in place.2-32. UMBILICAL CONNECTORS.2-33. The umbilical connectors onboilerplate 13 consist of electrical connectorsand plugs located in the planes of separation of the modules; a GSE umbilicalconnector for ground support equipment, and a coolant umbilical connector.These connectors join the electrical systems of the modules while the modulesare attached and provide a means of disconnecting the electrical systems uponmodule separation. There is no requirement for module separation duringboilerplate 13 mission; therefore, the necessary hardware for umbilical discon-nect is omitted except for GSE separation. The GSE umbilical supplies theelectrical power while the boilerplate is on the pad. The coolant umbilicalsupplies the fluid coolant from GSE equipment on the pad.Z-34. GSE UMBILICAL CONNECTOR. A GSE umbilical is located in theskin of the service module approximately 18 inches below the top, on the +Zplane. (See figure 2-8. ) This umbilical is equipped with a primary (pneumatic)and a backup (hydraulic) release mechanism. Both systems are armed by asignal from NASA control GSE. Pneumatic and hydraulic pressures are suppliedby facility equipment. On initial command, a solenoid actuates the nitrogenpressure which ejects the umbilical. If this system fails to operate, i0 milli-seconds later a hydraulic actuator trips a lanyard which then disconnects theumbilical.2-35. COMMAND MODULE TO SERVICE MODULE UMBILICAL CONNECTORS.Umbilical connector receptacles are recessed into the outer surface of the aftheat shield of the command module. They are approximately IZ inches fromthe outer edge and located near longeron No. 6. The receptacles are part ofthe command module aft compartment wiring installation. The plug portionsof the connectors are part of the service module wiring installation.2-36. SERVICE MODULE TO INSERT UMBILICAL CONNECTOR.

    3-16. The mission sequencer located in the command module controls thesequence of events that are necessary to execute a successful launch escapetower jettison operation. The sequencer contains the logic circuits to directthe timing and order of the electrically initiated steps of the mission. Completeredundance of the entire sequential network is provided for reliability. Themission sequencer logic circuits send the electrical signals to operate themotor switches in the tower sequencer for firing the explosive bolt squibs andigniting the tower jettison motor. Table 3-3 gives mission sequencer functions.In addition, the mission sequencer provides compatibility of monitoring criticalevents as they occur, thus providing an input to the instrumentation system.

    3-17. TOWER SEQUENCERS. (See figures 2-3 and 3-3.)

    3-18. Two tower sequencers are attached to the underside of the structuralskirt. The sequencers receive input signals from the mission sequencer. Thetower sequencers provide electrical signals to fire the tower separation squibsand the tower jettison motor provides electrical signals to separate the launchescape assembly from the command module. The sequencers provide circuitsfor monitoring the functional status of the critical control circuits via GSEduring checkout operations. The sequencers also include circuits that controlthe operation of the sequencer and, if necessary, reset an armed condition ofthe subsystem within the tower assembly during checkout operations. Use oftwo sequencers provides total redundancy for reliability.

    SECTION IVCOMMUNICATIONS AND INSTRUMENTATION

    4-1. PURPOSE.

    4-2. The communications and instrumentation system provides a means ofacquiring and conditioning preselected information and of transmitting thisinformation to earth monitoring equipment. (Refer to table 4-1 for measurementlist.) The system also provides for tracking of the spacecraft during the mission.The Q-ball contains some instrumentation equipment, the information being usedfor guidance. The Q-ball system is not connected functionally with the Apollocommunications and instrumentation system but is described in this section.

    4-3. DESCRIPTION. (See figure 4-i.)

    NOTE

    For detailed descriptive and checkout informationfor the R&D electronic equipment furnished byNASA, refer to applicable NASA document.

    4-4. COMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT.

    4-5. Communications R&D equipment consists of the telemetry system andradar transponders.

    4-6. TELEMETRY SYSTEM. The telemetry system consists of three FM/FMtelemetry subsystems; one subsystem containing two PAM channels, the trans-mitters of each operating into the antenna system. In addition to the transmitter,each telemetry subsystem includes subcarrier oscillators and subsystem Acontains a 90 x i0 and a 90 x i-1/4 commutator, the latter commutator beingused for temperature measurements.

    4-7. Transmitting frequencies of the three systems are as follows:

    a. Telemetry system A Z37.8 mc

    b. Telemetry system B 247. 3 mc
