## Notice

HSE are about to commence a research programme at our Science and Research Centre in Buxton which requires the sudden release of up to 30 litres of gaseous hydrogen at an initial pressure of 70 MPa. The release has to represent the sudden rupture of the storage vessel, and approximately 40 to 60 such releases are anticipated. A bespoke double bursting disc unit and discs are required for this research. Additional information: Responses and requests for clarification must be submitted via the In-Tend supplier e-procurement portal. Registration is free of charge and this can be done via the following link: https://in-tendhost.co.uk/hse. All tender documentation is also available via the portal above.
