C-3.2 Voids ventilation system description. The void areas are provided with forced fresh air ventilation by
electrically driven fans. Two fans mounted high on deckhouse port and starboard bulkheads provide ventilation to
eight void areas; void 1 In bow, voids 2 port and starboard, voids 3 port and starboard, voids 4 port and starboard,
and void 5 in stem. In addition, two fans mounted In ducting at rear of ROWPU space exhaust hot air from voids 4,
which contain three diesel generators. Two louvered hatches with covers and ducting provide fresh air Intake from
the stem weatherdeck into voids 4 - one in port and the other In starboard. The voids ventilation system also
includes air ducts, electrical wiring, controls, and both mechanical and electrical emergency shutoffs.
C-3.3 Heating and air conditioning system. The dayroom and workshop are provided with heated and cooled air
from a HAC unit on the forward bulkhead in the workshop . This unit forces either heated or cooled air through
overhead ductwork into the workshop and dayroom. Bulkheads In both rooms are well Insulated so that a
reasonable temperature is maintained. The control to select either heating or air conditioning (AC) is on upper right
side of box containing heating element above the AC unit. The AC controls are on front of the unit. The heating
unit, located in ductwork above the AC unit, uses an electrically powered element. Both heating and AC use the
blower fan In the AC unit to move air into the dayroom and workshop The thermostat for the heating portion of this
system Is on the port bulkhead in dayroom near the refrigerator receptacle Both dayroom and workshop are also
equipped with a mushroom-style, nonpowered ventilator in the deckhouse top
The AC unit's water cooling condenser is provided seawater from one of two sources. If seawater pumps In
void 2 starboard are operating, and the proper valves open, they provide seawater for cooling the AC condenser and
for cooling the chlorination unit. When these pumps are not operating, seawater for cooling is provided by an AC
cooling water pump. This pump draws seawater from the forward seachest through a set of AC seawater strainers in
void 2 port and provides water for cooling both the AC unit and the chlorination unit For details, see TM 55-1930-
209-14&P-2, Seawater Systems.
