Description

Negotiations to be conducted with Miller Nelson Research, Monterey, California for two (2) model HSC-401-200 Airflow Temperature Humidity Control Systems. This equipment is capable of a relative humidity range of 30-90% at 20 degree C, 20-85% at 25 degree C, 10-75% at 30 degree C; operating temperature Range -- Ambient +2 degree C-35 degree C (without cooling option) 20-35 degree C (with cooling option); Operating Air Flow Range of 20-200 L/min. This system is specified equipment in numerous internationally accepted NIOSH respirator certification testing and operational procedures implemented under Title 42 CFR Part 84. Many domestic and foreign respirator manufacturers required to pretest their respirators before making application for NIOSH approval have duplicated NIOSH protocols and therefore, utilized Miller Nelson units. These specific units are necessary to provide consistency across NIOSH respiration certification test procedures, and compatibility with military laboratories jointly developing with NIOSH new standards for respirators.
