It is a necessary piece of equipment needed to access raw information of thousands of genes imbedded on a microscopic slide. Delivery time is June 1, 2003. The USDA, ARS, NCAUR is interested in purchasing a Timken Extreme Pressure Test Instrument . The Description is: Automatic Loading Device: Pneumatically operated system to lower test weights at controlled rate of 2 to 3 lbs/sec. Maximum Test Pressure:- Timken Test block pressure (.022 in . scar width): 92,300 psi. Automatic Grease Feeder: Electro/mechanical system to feed at 45 + 9 grams per minute. Electrically disarms test fluid circulating pump motor. Fluid Circulating System: Approximately 3 liter reservoir with heater, oil pump and control valve. Control valve stops flow of lubricant automatically within three seconds of pump stopping. Cooling System: Oil reservoir cooling jacket uses lab tap water or other user supplied cooling medium to cool test oil. Temperature Control: Digital temperature controller for heating recirculating fluid. Coefficient of Friction(COF) accessories and procedure for measuring COF. Cabinetry: Heavy construction steel with electro/mechanical compartment, weight storage area, accessory drawer and instrumentation panel. Maximum Space requirement:7x2 in (L) x 60 in (W) x 65 in (H). The instrument must be capable of conducting the following test methods: 1)ASTM D 2782"Standard Test Method for Measurement of Extreme-Pressure Properties of Lubricating Fluids (Timken Method). 2)ASTM D2509"Standard Test Method for Measurement of Load-Carrying Capacities of Lubricating Grease (Timken Method).
