Description
The Met Office Weather Radars are able to detect a very small return signal from precipitation at ranges of up to 250Km from the site. To maintain data quality the radome must have little or no effect on the returned signal. To mitigate the effect the radome structure has on the returned signal, and to ensure all electrical and other equipment within the radome is kept dry and secure from the elements requires routine maintenance of the structure to ensure it is clean, watertight, fully coated to repel precipitation (Hydrophobic)
and structurally sound to withstand environmental loadings.
This tender is to let a contract to deliver these requirements across the 18 Weather Radar sites. Please see tender ref. DN647079 Radome Maintenance for more information.
Please note the deadline for returning your completed tender is 12 noon on the 27th January 2023.
