Summary

Machine-generated summary

The School of Physics and Astronomy at Space Park Leicester, University of Leicester, is procuring a Thermal Vacuum (TVAC) System. The chamber will support environmental testing, qualification and thermal vacuum cycling of components and equipment developed by its Space Projects and Instrumentation group and commercial third parties. Requirements include high-vacuum capability (typically 1x10-5 hPa or better), wide temperature cycling (often -190 C to +150 C or higher), precise thermal control, contaminant control, structural reliability and feedthroughs for power and data to the equipment under test. The system will be installed in an ISO 14644 Class 6 cleanroom.

Description

The School of Physics & Astronomy (Space Park Leicester) has secured funding to procure a Thermal Vacuum (TVAC) System to support environmental testing, qualification, and thermal vacuum cycling of components and equipment developed under the projects run by its Space Projects and Instrumentation group and via commercial agreements with third parties (managed by Space Park Leicester). Thermal vacuum (TVAC) chambers require high-vacuum capability (typically ≤ 1×10-5 hPa), wide-range temperature cycling (often -190 °C to +150°C or higher), and precise thermal control (control surface stability in the range ±0.1 °C/min), usually achieved via liquid nitrogen, shrouds and heating platens. They include contaminant control (e.g. dry pumps), structural reliability to withstand atmospheric pressure, and feedthroughs for power and data to Equipment Under Test (EUT). The System is intended to be installed in an ISO 14644 Class 6 cleanroom at Space Park Leicester.
