The BOSMAL Automotive Research and Development Institute Sp. z o. o. in Poland from Europe region has released this tender for 1. Subject of the order The subject of the order is the delivery of a completely new dust chamber with vertical air movement for testing resistance to dust ingress. The dust chamber must ensure the performance of tests in accordance with the methodologies valid on the date of the offer submission, as follows: • PN-EN 60529 IP5X, IP6X • ISO20653 IP5KX, IP6KX • PN-EN 60068-2-68 method La2 2. Test objects The chamber will mainly test electrical and electronic devices or their housings with the following parameters: • weight up to 750 kg • details of small height (in relation to the height of the chamber): max HxWxD [m] 1.5x1.5x2.5 • control cabinets/switchboards with maximum dimensions: HxWxD [m] 2.2x1.0x2.5 The dimensions of the chamber should be appropriate to meet the requirements of the PN-EN 60068-2-68 standard (p.4.2.3) (e.g.: the volume of the product should not be greater than 25% of the volume of the test chamber, and its base should not be greater than 50% of the horizontal working surface of the testing chamber) 3. Required parameters of the dust chamber: Required parameters are given in Table 1 Table 1- No. Required parameters 3.1 Dimensions of the working space: minimum HxWxD [m] 2.5 x 3.2 x 2.5, maximum HxWxD [m] 3.0x3.7x3.0 3.2 Double doors with an inspection window in at least one leaf 3.3 The floor surface of the chamber should be level with the laboratory floor surface to allow easy loading of parts into the chamber (installation in a trough) 3.4 The chamber control system should enable the setting of: • the temperature inside the chamber with a resolution of at least 0.1℃. • dust activation time (dust activation system start/stop time), dusting, including continuous or periodic mode (1 s resolution), • vibration system operation time (dust shaking off system) (with 1 s resolution), • test time (with 1 s resolution in the range of at least 99 h), • regulation of the negative pressure applied to the object with a resolution of at least 0.1 kPa and pump operation time. 3.5 Monitoring of humidity and temperature inside the chamber (continuous temperature recording, humidity measurement at least before starting the test). The chamber should have the ability to save data to a network drive or, if necessary, be equipped with a computer based on the latest Windows operating system. 3.6 Test dust drying system enabling regulation and maintenance of the temperature inside the chamber up to 80 degrees Celsius. 3.7 Workspace pressure compensation equipped with a replaceable filter. 3.8 Dust concentration measurement system (the offer must include the basic system assumptions). 3.9 The dust distribution system should enable the use of at least the following dusts for testing: Arizona A2, Arizona A4, talc, Portland cement, mixture: 70% quartz sand, 15% chalk, 15% kaolin (as per NO-06-A107) 3.10 The scope of delivery should include a leak tester enabling automatic leak checks of the tested objects with the following parameters: • pressure range from approx. -1 to 5 barg • leakage measurement with a resolution of 0.0006 ml/min or better • the tester should have the ability to differentially measure tightness 3.11 If the offered tightness tester does not support tests with a negative pressure applied to the object, an additional vacuum pump with flow and pressure measurement should be included in the delivery 3.12 The chamber should have the ability to remotely control the test status and parameters – connection e.g. to a LAN network and dedicated software 3.13 Digital inputs / outputs of the chamber: • at least 4 programmable digital outputs (programmable on/off times from the moment of starting the test) • digital input enabling the test to be started by another external device • digital output signaling the dusting phase • digital output signaling the set temperature • digital output signaling the alarm status 3.14 200mm diameter passages - 2 pcs. 3.15 Chamber interior lighting 3.16 Detailed guidelines according to PN-EN 60068-2-68 method La2 3.17 Floor load capacity: minimum 750kg 3.18 Chamber should enable the exchange of working dust, the offer should include a description of the method/system of dust removal and loading 3.19 Minimum 24-month warranty Additional requirements: 3.20 The Contractor shall specify in the offer the method of construction of the chamber, whether it will be delivered as a whole or in the form of modules (working chamber as a whole + machine room and control as subsequent modules), whether the device will be integrated/assembled on-site from components (panel sheathing, bolted sheet metal, etc.). This information is necessary to ensure the appropriate parameters of the installation room (e.g. height/width of the entrance gates and the room) 4.
