36C25525Q0318 - INFRARED OVEN

STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW) *ALL ITEMS HEREIN THAT MENTION BRAND NAME PRODUCTS MAY BE SUBSTITUTED FOR A LIKE OR SIMILAR ITEM* 1. INTRODUCTION This solicitation is to provide the Veterans Health Administration, Robert J. Dole VA with one (1) Infrared Oven for use in the Robert J Dole VAMC Prosthetics Laboratory. This Infrared oven is needed to be able to heat plastics to fabricate prosthetic limp components for Veterans receiving prosthetic services.

2. BACKGROUND The Wichita VAMC currently uses a HIX CORP Infrared Oven to heat plastics to form prosthetic limb components for test sockets. The current oven was acquired in 1983, is beyond its current life cycle, and due for replacement. The new oven will provide the prosthetist with updated features to allow for more efficient heating and increasing safety to clinician with rotating cart feature not on current oven.

The new oven will allow our Prosthetist to create test sockets efficiently, reducing heating time up to 10 minutes per socket, as well as reducing energy consumption. The sensor on the new oven will measure material sag and alert clinician that material is ready to be formed, reducing opportunity for human error regarding time management with multitasking.

The mobile cart facilitated switching between the Teflon covered work surface and vacuum forming frame quickly saving space and reducing potential for harm (clinician does not have to carry hot plastic to new station). 3. SCOPE OF WORK The contractor shall furnish and deliver IR Oven Turn W. Sensor (701E40=S – US) within 8 weeks from purchase. Contractor shall provide standard 2-year warranty from date of delivery.

4. TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS A. Salient Features for 701E40=S – US Infrared oven with rotatable material cart and sensor. Sensor for exact measurement of the material sag depth with acoustic and optical signal. Mobile material cart with rotation function facilitations switching between Teflon-covered work surface and vacuum forming frame quickly and saves space State-of-the-art infrared quartz tubes with single reflectors ensure an even heating.

Optical temperature sensor permits continuous monitoring of the material surface temperature. Simple operation via a central element with temperature setpoint entry and timer function. Storage function for user-defined heating processes Graphical progress indicator for monitoring. Heat insulated housing, enclosed on all sides Space saving sliding door. Stainless steel front panel with 3 viewing windows.

B. Technical Requirements:

Equipment: Opto-electric Infrared Oven measuring head for measuring the surface temperature. PID controller, temperature continuously adjustable from 30 C to 250 C. Temperature indicator with setpoint and actual value and programmable timer function. SPS controller with touch panel.

Material Cart: With rotation function for switching between sheet materials and vacuum formed sockets. Mobile with 4 castors with brakes. Usable area on material cart W x D 1,260 mm x 1,040 mm.
