4.3 COLOR OF SEAL

The seal body will be colorless, transparent (see through) type, which shall give complete visualization of its fixing mechanism and shall show clear indication if tampered with. Also seal’s anchor can be of different colour like Red, Blue, Yellow, Green and Orange etc for necessary area wise applicable colour coding i.e. two different colour in same seal, which makes seal unique.

4.4 SPECIAL SIX LEVEL SECURITY FEATURES

• 4.4.2 Micro text matter/symbol readable with magnifying lens at minimum four places. (Nano text coding)
• 4.4.3 Special colour codes (weather resistant)
• 4.4.4 Laser type with contrast colour serial no. at two points i.e. unique type numbering on anchor and female part positions with special Psychological effect (German technology)
• 4.4.5 Two stand lace wire connected with male and female part of seal. (Inox 304 grade)

4.5 DESIGN

The seal will be anchor type, tamper evident with eight locking system and shall be of different color codes (for e.g. one particular color shall be used by M&P Organization other by the (OP) Wring and 3rd by the purchasing/inspecting agency.

4.6 SIZE OF THE SEAL

• 4.6.1 The size of the female part body of the seal shall be 20 x 14 x 7 + 0.5 mm.
• 4.6.2 The size of two wire hole should be sufficient to insert seal wire, but in case, more than 1.0 mm + 0.2 mm.
• 4.6.3 Wall thickness should not be less that 0.8 mm.

4.7 SERIAL NO. OF THE SEAL

Non repeat seven digits numeric Sr.No, on the seal shall be Laser type in contrast color. Its should be provided on anchor flap i.e. on the top of anchor part and on the bottom side of the female part.

4.8 MONOGRAM

The seal shall have facility for embossed type monogram of COMPANY logo in 8mm circle on front side and rear side of body of seal.

4.9 SEAL WIRE

Seal wire should be molded in seal in such way that it should be connecting male female part of the seal and remaining open wire will be used for sealing. The non corrosive non magnetic inox 304 grade, two twisted wires, each of 0.45 + 0.01 mm dia with over all diameter of wire 0.9 + 0.05 mm, so that it can easily insert into the female portion where the diameter of two hole shall be 1.00 mm + 0.2 mm. Total seal wire length should be of 160 mm. (open wire length)

5. TYPE TEST

The seal shall be type tested for the following tests, and type test should not be more than 5 year old.

• (1) Boiling water test.( Four Hours )
• (2) Pull out test
• (3) Chemical test
• (4) Melting point ( 280 to 295°C)
• (5) Temperature withstand test (147°C for one hour)
• (6) Tensile strength of sealing wire(braking load)
• (7) Specific gravity (ASTM D 792-08)
• (8) Ultra violet resistance test for 24 hours as per ASTM G 154-12a

6. ROUTINE TEST

The seal shall be tested at the manufacturer’s works for the following tests:

• 1. Visual Check: l. e. workmanship and other features as mentioned above.
• 2. Dimensional Check: as per drawing.
• 3. Boiling water test: The seal shall be emerged in the boiling water for more than four hour and there shall not be any affect on the seal and the seal shall remain in tact condition. Even, with the help of any sharp instrument, pulling with puller i.e. by applying mechanical force, the seal shall not come out from the female part. In case, it comes out, the same shall damage the seal, so that it can not be re-used.
• 4. Pulled out test: After locking the seal, if the seal is pulled with mechanical force with the help of puller or any other instrument, sharp instrument etc. at normal condition, the seal shall not be unlocked without any damage.
• 5. Seal wire: In case, if someone tries to pull the seal wire and in any of the test mentioned at Sr. No. 3, 4 & 5 in that case the male / female portion of the seal should be damaged and the same can be seen visually being a transparent one.
• 6. Chemical Test: The seal shall be kept in the concentrated acid for minimum one hour, the same shall remain in tact condition and if try to unlock the seal, the same shall be damaged.

In short, if the seal is tested for any of the above tests, in no condition the male and female part shall be separated without affecting damaging the seal. In case, if they are separated, the seal shall have sufficient temper evident. Also, if seal wire is pulled out from the seal in any of the above tests, it shall not come out from the seal without damaging seal.

6.1 SAMPLING CRITERIA:

As per IS 4905. The seals, used in testing, shall be destroyed in the presence of inspecting officer.

ADVANTAGE :

• TRIPLE LOCKING SYSTEM WITH PRE LOCK FACILITY
• CAVITY DESIGN OF FEMALE PART, AND NO ROOM SPACE BETWEEN MALE AND FEMALE PART OF SEAL
• SEALS ARE AVAILABLE IN BODY CLEAR TRANSPARENT AND MALE PART OF DIFFERENT COLOURS LIKE RED, BLUE, ORANGE GREEN, YELLOW ETC, SO CUSTOMISED COLOUR CODING CAN BE GIVEN BY CUSTOMER BY APPLICATION WISE AND AREA WISE.
