Aerospace and Telecommunication Engineering Support Squadron’s oil
analysis lab provides fluid and particle analyses for the Royal
Canadian Air Force’s aircraft fleets. Part of that service includes
filter debris analysis wherein wear particles, generated within an
aircraft component, are extracted from the fluid’s filter and examined
under a microscope. The metallurgyof critical particles needs to be
determined to provide the aircraft maintenance personnel with vital
information during the repairs. The lab did have an Energy Dispersive
X-ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometer but that one is no longer
serviceable.
A new Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence spectrometer is needed to
provide the lab technicians with a relatively simple means to determine
the various metals composing a single particle or an overview of the
various metals captured on aMillipore membrane.
The requirement is subject to the provisions of the North American Free
Trade Agreement (NAFTA), and the Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT).
