## Summary

The University of Strathclyde is planning a procurement for an integrable power amplifier and multi-environment chamber tailored for power systems and power electronics research. This procurement falls under the goods category and is classified within the education sector. The deadline for prospective suppliers to register their interest is 1700hrs on 17th July 2020. Located in Glasgow, UK, the University will engage with interested suppliers ahead of the tendering phase, which is anticipated to begin after 1st September 2020.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses that specialise in advanced electronic equipment, environmental test chambers, and related technologies. Companies with expertise in providing high-power amplifiers or custom environmental systems will find themselves well-positioned to compete. The engagement process initiated by the University of Strathclyde allows suppliers to showcase their capabilities and align their offerings with the university's specific technical requirements, potentially leading to fruitful partnerships and growth in the education sector.

## Notice

The University of Strathclyde seeks notes of interest from suppliers able to provide an integrable power amplifier and multi-environment chamber for power systems and power electronics research. The offered equipment must have these essential features: >> Minimum of 4 four-quadrant power amplifiers each rated at 50kW (405Vac and 800Vdc), capable of full control (voltage and current) with analogue inputs for interface. >> Environmental chamber (1m3) integrated with vibration table capable of the following characteristics >>> Temperature -70degC to +180degC >>> Humidity 20 to 95%RH >>> Pressure 101.3 to 0.1kPa >>> Vibration MIL-STD-810 with the ability to generate user specific profiles via analogue or digital interface. The environmental chamber should have electrical inputs (external to the chamber) and outputs (inside the chamber) capable of carrying current for 405V 3-ph 200kW and 800Vdc 200kW. The expected weight for the device under test is 150Kgs.
