Machinery and apparatus for filtering or purifying gases

Tender description

Magnox (MxL) has procured a number of variants of Ductile Cast Iron Containers (DCICs) from Gesellschaft Für Nuklear-Service mbH (GNS). To make these containers suitable for use, it is necessary to fit a vent assembly to prevent any pressure build-up in the package and to ensure the diffusion of flammable gases, typically hydrogen and methane, from the container. The vent must ensure that pressure within the container during normal operations remains below the Pressure Systems Safety Regulations 2000 (PSSR) threshold of 0,5 barg. The vent shall ensure adequate dispersal of flammable gases during storage in the Interim Storage Facility (ISF) such that the atmosphere in the container remains below the appropriate Lower Flammable Limit (LFL). The scope involves supply of batch order Filter Units (up to 900 Nr units) for GNS Yellow Box® &, GNS MOSAIK® EI Vent Assemblies & Vent Assemblies for the GNS MOSAIK® U-EI DCICs and the associated quality assurance records.
