ATTACHMENT 2 - Autoclave 3822-Photo Binder.pdf

This is a photographic attachment document providing visual reference materials for an existing autoclave unit (Model 3822) at the National Animal Disease Center. The images include photographs of the autoclave's external features, such as the front panel, front-angle view, and entry area (labeled as 3822L entry and 3822L-room interior), as well as internal components and operational elements including the date plate, disconnect mechanisms, drain vessel, and internal views of multiple sections designated as DVL-1 through DVL-4. Additionally, the document contains photographs of the piping systems associated with the unit.

These photographs serve as reference documentation for the solicitation (1232SA26Q0779) issued by the Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service for the replacement of two passthrough autoclave/sterilizers at the National Animal Disease Center in Ames, Iowa. The visual documentation of the existing Model 3822 autoclave allows prospective vendors to understand the current equipment specifications, physical dimensions, spatial constraints, and operational infrastructure that must be accommodated by replacement units, enabling them to provide accurate quotations for the commercial autoclave equipment required under this Request for Quotation.
