Tenders Are Invited For Laboratory, Optical And Precision Equipments (Excl. Glasses) – Glider

Laboratory, Optical And Precision Equipments (Excl. Glasses) – Glider. Prambel The Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon Gmbh (Hereon) Is A Non-Profit Research Institution And One Of The 18 Member Institutions Of The Hermann From Helmholtz Community Of German Research Center E. V. The Expenses Of The Hereon Are Financed By The Bund (Bmftr - Federal Ministry Of Research, Technology And Space) And 10% By The Four Consortium Countries (Schleswig -Holstein, Hamburg, Lower Saxony And Brandenburg). The Statutory Task Of Society Is To Operate Research And Development In Multidisciplinary Network, Especially In The Fields Of Material Research, Coastal, Climate And Environmental Research As Well As Regenerative Medicine. Power Description For The Helmholtz Center Hereon Is To Be Procured Underwater Glider With The Configuration Described Below. The Description Takes Place In English And German In The Event Of Discrepancies, The German Description Alone Counts. Configuration The Configuration Of The Underwater Glider Includes The Following Specifications: - The Glider Is Driven By A Buoyancy Engine. This Engine Must Be Able To Achieve An Absolute Volume Change Of About ± 400 Ml For A Vehicle Weight (Outside The Water) Of Around 50-80 Kg. - The Buoyancy Motor Must Be Designed For A Depth Of At Least 200 Meters. - The Gliders Energy System Must Include A Rechargeable Lithium Battery Package. - The Glider Must Be Equipped With A Altitude To Avoid Collisions With The Sea Floor. - The Glider Must Be Equipped With A Flashing Light Or Another Warning Light To Warn Nearby Ships When The Glider Is On The Surface. - The Glider Must Be Able To Digitally Communicate Via The Iridium Satellite Communication System. - The Glider Must Be Able To Communicate Via An Additional Radio System That Works Over A Short Distances Of 3000 M Or More (At Sea). - The Glider Must Be Compatible With An Existing Microstructure Measurement Package From Rockland Scientific, Which Enables The Microt Temperature And Shear Sensors To Be Physically Mounted On The Bow Of The Glider Fuselage. To Minimize Fuselage-Induced Flow Effects Caused By Disorders, See Sensor Configuration. - The Glider Must Be Modularly Expandable In Order To Absorb Additional, Potentially Simple, Tailor -Made Sensors. - The Glider Must Be Modularly Expandable In Order To Include An Additional Wet Shaft Or A Flooded Fuselage Section (Not In Combination With An Additional Battery Shaft, See Next Point). - The Glider Must Be Modularly Expandable In Order To Include An Additional Battery Shaft (Not In Combination With A Flooded Or Wet Shaft, See Previous Point). - A Suitable Transport Container For The Glider Must Be Included In The Delivery. Sensor Configuration The Sensor Configuration Of The Glider Must
