Description
The University of Southern Mississippi is soliciting sealed bids for the purchase and delivery of a heater chiller system for the Oyster Hatchery and Research Center. The system includes low-profile drop-in water chillers, air-cooled reversible heat pumps, and commercial-duty heat/chill pump units. The equipment must be new, unused, and of current production, and must meet specific technical requirements. The university reserves the right to determine equivalency.
The key requirements of the project include:
• Providing a heater chiller system for a marine and freshwater aquaculture research environment
• Ensuring the equipment is suitable for freshwater and saltwater systems
• Maintaining stable process water temperatures
• Ensuring the equipment is rated for outdoor or sheltered exterior installation
• Meeting specific technical requirements for each type of equipment, including compact, low-profile drop-in configuration, air-cooled design, and digital temperature control.
