Laboratory Test Request

Commercial Electronic Product Contaminant Identification Testing

Project Description

BUDGET APPROVED ($5000-$10,000)
Contract Laboratory needed for contaminant identification testing found in liquid cooling a commercial electronic product with a 50/50 mix of propylene glycol. We are seeing rapid o-ring failures with our mixture and need to determine what the contaminant is that is causing the failures.

We have several possibilities and to help narrow down the culprit, we are hoping to get a sample tested to know what is causing the swelling of the o-rings. The items that could be introducing the contaminant are a lab chiller, a friction stir weld cold plate, or a liquid to air heat exchanger. We are seeing failures with EPDM, Buna-N, and FKM o-ring (all tested with used fluid in a controlled environment).
