1.0 Preamble

U.R.Rao Satellite Centre (URSC), Bangalore is engaged in the development of

spacecrafts for various applications such as Communication, Remote Sensing and Scientific

activities. Each spacecraft consists of 1 or more batteries with Lithium ion cells from different

manufacturers. Presently, batteries for the spacecrafts of ISRO are being realized by URSC with

in-house capacity and with limited external work force support for assembly and testing of

new design and development work, and standard batteries requirements are met by industry

with a production quantity of 8-10 batteries per annum.

Nature of work and the responsibilities of the Vendor are to carry out Battery Division

activities including operation and maintenance of facility of Battery Division, ISITE,

Marathahalli, Bengaluru. The main work involves incoming inspection of materials, Acceptance

and Matching of cells, Fabrication of modules/batteries, Acceptance Testing of

cells/modules/batteries, testing of cell balancing electronics and Storage & Maintenance of

cells/batteries. All works to be carried out by trained work force as per ISRO requirements.

At present, ISRO is the sole user of the space quality batteries in India and is in

possession of the technology for Design, Assembly and Testing of space quality batteries.

Considering strategic importance of this product for ISRO and the space program of our

country and the major growth in demand as foreseen in this area, ISRO is keen to sign a

contract for fabrication, assembly, testing and maintenance of 5 to 10 space quality batteries

per annum at ISRO premises.

2.0 Scope of Work It is planned to invite EOI (expression of interest) to OPERATE AND MAINTAIN THE

FACILITY FOR FABRICATION, ASSEMBLY, TESTING AND MAINTENANCE OF SPACE BATTERIES

at ISRO premises ISITE.

The entire activity is planned to be carried out in a phased manner.

During initial Phase (Phase-1), on-the-job training will be given to the vendor for Battery

fabrication and testing activities. The Battery fabrication and testing activities will be carried

non flight materials/elements, jigs shall be provided by URSC/ISRO.

Subsequently, after successfully realizing different types of batteries (quantity TBD) , if

vendor is willing to take up procurement of all elements & materials for on-board and ground,

jigs, fixtures as required and then he can separately quote, during phase-2. Vendor shall return

the jigs, fixtures and all elements, materials procured can be returned to URSC after

completion of his contract or termination of contract. Vendor shall take up battery fabrication

and testing activities on an end-to-end basis at ISITE facility in phase-2.

The scope of the work to be entrusted through a fabrication & testing order envisages

Fabrication of Li-Ion batteries of different capacities, wiring/welding.

o Preparation of test samples for input raw materials (plastic films, adhesives etc)

o Inspection of fabricated elements/components, Inspection of on-board

electrical components.

Testing of space quality Li Ion Cells, modules, batteries of different capacities & types,

electronic cards.

Testing and maintenance of cells and batteries.

Calibration and maintenance (Annual Maintenance Contract) of test equipments, hot

& cold chambers, data acquisition systems and interfaces consoles.

Support TDP when required.

Documentation for logbooks, work instructions, check lists, data entry related jobs,

reports for test results, as per Battery Division requirements.

A detailed description of activities to be carried out is given in Annexure 1.

The work may be carried out mainly at ISITE, Marathahalli, Bangalore and if needed also at any

other related organization or at any other Indian Space Research Organization centers in

Bangalore, as per the requirements and under the technical guidance of Engineers of Battery

Division, ISRO satellite Centre, in accordance with the terms and conditions contained

hereinafter.

EOI Page 5

The space quality Li-ion cells and batteries are very expensive, delicate and hazardous items

when not operated under specified conditions. Therefore utmost care shall be taken while

handling/testing cells and batteries. Safety of individuals, cells and batteries and facility is of

prime importance.

Note: Typical time line for battery fabrication (2 to 3 months) & testing (1 ½ to 2 months). Both

fabrication and testing shall take 3 to 5 months depending on the capacity of the battery (5Ah

to 270Ah) as per Annexure-1. All these activities shall be carried out under the guidance and

supervision of vendors and are also periodically audited by System Reliability Group,

URSC/ISITE.
