THIS IS A NATIONAL GUARD TITLE 32 EXCEPTED SERVICE POSITION. This National Guard position is for a ELECTRONIC MEASUREMENT EQUIPMENT MECHANIC, Position Description Number D1201000 and is part of the ID G4 CSMS, National Guard. THIS POSITION IS INDEFINITE (NOT TO EXCEED 5 YEARS) AND MAY NON-COMPETITIVELY CONVERT TO A PERMANENT POSITION.
What You'll Do
- →(1) Calibrates and repairs TMDE within support capability and authority including various levels of calibration as designated in technical bulletins, manuals, etc.
- →Performs functional electronic, physical, and radioactive testing involving interpretation and analysis of measurement data, in accordance with cyclic inspection requirements.
- →Analyzes and isolates component malfunctions; calculates and determines tolerances; and performs tests and calibrations in accordance with instructions, which are often vague and incomplete, and may require the preparation of diagrams and instructions to facilitate the calibration action.
- →Diagnoses equipment, makes repairs, and replaces defective parts/components such as integrated circuits, printed circuit boards, electronic condition coils, radiation detector boards/circuits, crystals, transistors, tubes, transformers, condensers, diodes, relays potentiometers, and related components.
- →(3) Following repair, tests by applying signals in known amplitude and wave shape into oscilloscopes to observe wave pattern.
- →Isolates faults by taking measurements and comparisons in voltage, amperage, ohms, henries, power factor, watts, temperature, humidity, microns, footpounds, decibels, sensitivity, noise, stability, Voltage Standard Wave Ratio (VSWR), impedance, phase, absolute pressure, time intervals, displacement, flow rate, etc., to determine performance of equipment.
- →If signal is distorted, traces it through electronic stages to locate malfunctioning part.
- →Checks sweep rate by feeding known signal to an oscilloscope and observing wave pattern to correct shape and size.
- →Operates equipment to complete range checking for proper operation of positioning controls.
- →Adjusts with trimmer potentiometers; and if calibration is still not possible, adds or removes sufficient resistance to permit balancing of circuit.
- →As needed, contacts the using organization to obtain information concerning the nature of the malfunction.
- →Uses equipment schematics to analyze circuits by preparing block diagram showing major components such as amplifiers, filters, oscillators and indicators.
- →(4) Determines purpose in operation characteristics of each major section.
- →Refers to technical manuals and manufactures specifications to obtain information on operation characteristics of circuit components such as integrated circuits, microprocessors, decoders, latching networks, notch filters, logics, controllers, programmable gain amplifiers, digital displays, transistors, tubes, transformers, coils, relays, motors, and similar devices.
Requirements
- ✓There are no additional educational requirements for this position.
