Technical Specifications Fluorescent Penetrant System DLA Land and Maritime Product Test Center, Mechanical Lab, VTM Objective:

This is a description of the DLA Product Test Center, VTM (not an acronym) Lab, requirements for the procurement of a liquid penetrant testing system. In generating this statement, the Government’s objective is to acquire a penetrant testing system which expands VTM’s overall testing capability of inspecting larger parts and for inspection efficiency. This system will allow the test center to test larger items and will have the ability to test items requiring higher penetrant sensitivity.

General Requirements:

1. NSN 6635-01-663-6127, MLF 250 (3 Station) or equivalent item.

2. Penetrant testing system must be new, not refurbished.

3. Penetrant system must be capable of performing a Type 1-Fluroescent, Method D-Hydrophilic, Sensitivity Level 4, Form D-Non-Aqueous Developer inspection.

4. Working height of system should be approximately 36 inches.

5. System must be “turnkey” after set-up. Contractor must supply all necessary connectors, cables, hardware, etc.

6. Part envelope must be at least 20” x 40” x 20”.

7. System must be provided with a penetrant application station/module, penetrant removal module, a dryer module, and an inspection module. The dryer and inspection module may be incorporated into one unit.

8. System shall have deployable dark-light curtains for the removal and inspection modules to allow no greater than 2-foot candles of white light infiltration when deployed.

9. System shall have an integrated drain rack incorporated into the penetrant application module that is equivalent of the part envelope.

10. (x2) additional small parts baskets fabrication of stainless-steel mesh and have a work volume of approximately 1 cubic foot shall be provided.

11. The penetrant removal and inspection modules shall be provided each with an ultraviolet light source with a center wavelength of 365 nanometers and be capable of supplying a light intensity of 1200 microwatts/centimeter square on the test surface and from the mounting point. Light sources shall be capable of being removed from mounting point to be hand wielded.

12. System shall be supplied with (x1) TAM Z5 Test Panel.

13. Penetrant application shall be via dip or brush method.

14. Emulsifier application shall be by spray, auxiliary pump sprayer of two-gallon capacity shall be provided.

15. Pre-Rinse and Emulsifier removal shall be by water spray. Water spray may be provided with street hookup or by pump sprayer. If by pump sprayer, a two-gallon capacity pump sprayer shall be provided. A water line is available for hookup at the test center.

16. System shall be provided with gage to accurately measure concentration of emulsifier.

17. System shall be capable of removing spent material (penetrant, emulsifier, water) by integrated pump to a waste drum. A waste line is not currently available for hook up at the test center.

Warranty: Contractor shall provide a minimum one (1) year warranty on all components, labor, and travel from date of installation at the DLA Product Test Center, Mechanical Lab, Cols, OH. The warranty will include all costs for repair or replacement as required.

Other Requirements:

1. Delivery: 10 weeks from Contract Award Date.

1. Contractor shall give notification to Craig Sheppard (craig.sheppard@dla.mil / 614-692-1266) when the system will be delivered and set-up date.

1. All shipping costs are to be included in the quoted price.
