Seismically Qualified

Seismically Qualified Perma-Con® Enclosure System

Project Scope:
  • AVLIS prototype testing requires a large isotope containment enclosure. Containment enclosure to meet seismic load requirements for Oak Ridge site, and be easily assembled and deconnable.
  • Containment certified to meet 0.4 inches water column negative pressure and have maximum in-situ air infiltration of less than 300 CFM.
  • Automatic air damper system to preclude leakage upon power loss.
  • On-site compliance certification testing required for air tightness.
Description:
  • RPS designs and delivers a modular panel enclosure measuring 16′ wide x 28′ long x 12′ high.
  • Modular panels are modified to incorporate seismic bracing to meet site criteria.
  • Pneumatic damper control system for power failure closure of air dampers.
  • Welding performed IAW AWS Structural Welding Code D1.1 (Certified Welders).
  • Certificate of compliance issued after successful on-site testing.
