D. SALINE CHARATERISTIC:
The supplied to be acquired is a transformer to provide high voltage (20kV) from a 120V power source to replace the transformer in the Flash X-ray machine used in the Space Electronics Branch Radiation Effects Laboratory that failed. The SET Rad Lab has commitments to Government agencies to provide radiation effects testing using the Flash X-ray and is unable to do so until the transformer is replaced. The Flash X-ray dates to the 1960s. The electromagnetic products are uniquely manufactured for this outdated unit, which will require modifying an existing transformer with a unique set of windings. This replacement should provide the function and fit the container (form factor).
Must fit into an oil bath, be compatible with an oil bath, fit into the container, and provide current or voltage requirements.
Specifications:
Primary voltage = 120V Secondary voltage = 20kV Primary current = 6A Secondary current = 50mA Turns ratio = 120:1 Frequency = 60 Hertz
Shipping and Handling is FOB: Destination to Kirtland AFB, NM 87117
