Lot Information
Lot 1
The University seeks notes of interest in a planned procurement exercise for the Supply, Delivery & Commissioning of an Environmental Test Chamber. The University anticipates that the supplied solution will conform to the below requirements: The potential tender is for the supply of an Environmental Test Chamber assembly capable of testing equipment under Temperature, Humidity, Pressure and Vibration conditions. The successful supplier is expected to provide the Environmental Test Chamber and any ancillary equipment needed to meet the requirements of the tender as a turn-key solution. Including, but not limited to; Shaker plate and fixings, cooling systems, compressors, pumps, guide systems etc. The successful supplier is expected to deliver all necessary equipment to the University, carry out all required on-site assembly and associated functional testing. The chamber assembly should have 3m^3 of useable internal space for test equipment under Temperature, Humidity and Pressure testing The supplier should provide a shaker plate that can accommodate test equipment up to 1m^3 and a payload of over 100kg. The system must be capable of temperature ranges from -70C to +180C (derating acceptable for vibration testing) and a rate of change of 3C per min for heating and cooling under test conditions. The system should be capable of relative humidity conditions from 10 to 95% in the climatic range of +10C to +85C with up to 10kw of heat dissipation. The system should be capable of pressure ranges from 101.3 (atmospheric) up to 0.1kPa (1mbar). The chamber assembly must have Vacuum feedthrough connectors consisting of: -AC sockets with capability up to 200kVA (3ph + N + PE) -DC sockets with capability up to 250A (DC+,DC-) -Hydraulic connectors -Fibre Optic (Aurora interface) and analogue (I/O interface) connectors. The supplier shall provide a vibration system capable of vertical and horizontal excitation directions. If necessary, the supplier shall provide a guide system with the Environmental Test Chamber assembly which assists in efficient and flexible installation and removal of any Device or System Under Test. The system shall provide the ability to carry out automated programme processes as well as document and archive information via the manufacturers proprietary software (PC based). The system shall consist of an external control system, capable of controlling and monitoring test events as well as running dynamic and historical reports via a HMI. Capability of SCADA integration is also required, to facilitate real-time control and data analysis. The supplier/manufacturer shall provide a permanent calibration license for the Test Chamber and Vibration systems. The supplier/manufacturer shall install and functionally test all the associated safety systems necessary to comply with the relevant machine design and safety regulations for the installation. Additional information: To be involved in pre-tender engagement, interested suppliers are asked to register their interest against this notice within 5 working days of its publication.
