SN 2530-00-920-8511 gets the right-hand wheel cylinder on the trailer for the
Ingersoll-Rand 250-CFM air compressor. Order NSN 2530-00-872-9301 for the
left-hand cylinder. The NSNs listed in Fig 52 of TM 5-4310-452-24P get the
wrong wheel cylinders.
All P-D-680 solvents, except for Type III, have been
labeled as toxic substances, flammable material, hazardous
waste and air pollutants. Even Type III generates some envi-
ronmental concerns.
P-D-680 has been replaced by a new degreasing solvent,
MIL-PRF-680. The new solvent is non-toxic, recyclable,
and not listed as a hazardous waste with the EPA. It also per-
forms just as well as the old P-D-680 solvent.
You can continue to use any stock of P-D-680 you have
on hand if local environmental laws allow. But once that
stock is depleted, order the new MIL-PRF-680 that replaces
your P-D-680 with these NSNs:
It will take some time to change all the TACOM TMs that list P-D-680 in their
expendable/durable supplies and material lists, so pencil in the new NSNs yourself.
The complete word’s in TACOM Technical Advisory Message 101. You can
access the message on the US Army Petroleum Center’s website at:
