SCOPE OF WORK: The Aerobiology Center of Excellence will be housing, transferring, performing aerosol exposures, and analyzing results thereof, concerning non-human primates and rodents in a BL3 laboratory environment. To this extent, space has been allocated for three ( 3) independent Class III Biological Safety Cabinet (BSC) lines for support of this research. Each Class III BSC will be nominally eight foot long & double sided, enabling work access from both long sides. An easily removeable transport/decontamination DC powered cart (nominal four foot length) will be provided at one end, and be secured with locki ng clamps designed to ensure repeated sealablility to Class III leak rate standards. Design of the system will permit transport cart portability from the animal holding room doors, to each Class III BSC docking adapter. Animals & work material will enter/ exit through the transport cart access door, and the entire system, (transport cart, docking adapter, Class III BSC) will be designed for decontamination via VHP & paraformaldehyde generator apparatus. (Note: VHP & Paraformaldehyde generators are USAMRIID provided, connection ports are only required). An additional dunk tank system will be installed on the opposite end of the glove box. Concept drawing with sufficient design details to permit a technical review will be required at time of proposal submission. Adherence to general layout, scope of operations, and specifications will be essential to proper evaluation. Ergonomic considerations are also essential. Location of glove ports, sloped viewscreens, access doors with method of closure, portability of transport carts, accessibility of internal/external services, and human inter-relationships (i.e. Show drawing de tail of human accessibility) with these factors shall be considered. 10.1 DUAL SIDED CLASS III BIOLOGICAL SAFETY CABINET MINIMAL ESSENTIAL CHARACTERISTICS (THREE REQUIRED) 10.2 CLASS III BIOLOGICAL SAFETY CABINET TRANSFER CART MINIMAL ESSENTIAL CHARACTERISITCS (SIX REQUIRED) 10.3 FACTORY ACCEPTANCE TESTING 1. The following factory tests must be performed at a minimum and a test report shall be generated: 2. Supply & exhaust HEPA filter integrity test. 3. Electrical testing. 4. Cabinet pressure test to verify continuous operation at a negative pressure of 0.5 W.G. 5. Positive pressure containment test. Both Double Sided Class III BSC Glove Box & the Class III Transfer Cart must pass a Sulfur Hexafluoride or Helium leak test. An SF6 leak rate no greater than 5 x 10-7 cc/sec. at 6. 3 W. G. positive pressure. Helium acceptance criteria is 1.5 x 10-5 cc/sec. at 3 W.G. positive pressure (33% helium) 7. Representatives of USAMRIID may elect to witness the Factory acceptance testing 10.4 INSTALLATION & ON SITE TESTING Manufacturer will receive the Class III systems at USAMRIID. Unloading, uncrating, setting in place, leveling, assembly, and make ready for final utility connections will be a part of this contract. After USAMRIID provides utility connections to the Class III systems, an on site certification to Class III standards to replicate factory testing will be accomplished. Th e manufacturer will engage the certification firm already qualified at USAMRIID. Final test reports shall be provided to USAMRIID.
