Phase Change Cooling System Specification Example for Workshop Replacements: Vented Design
Phase Change Cooling System Specification Example for Workshop Replacements: Vented Design
This is a worked specification for phase change cooling system in a vented design programme. It is the document we would send a buyer who asks what exactly they are getting: the material, the dimensions that are actually controlled, the finish, and the checks that happen before anything is packed.
The vented design version exists because the duty cycle on workshop replacements is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually documentation that arrived after the container shipped.

Example specification

| Sampling | 14 working days, 3 days per revision |
| Compliance | DOT |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Powder Coated Steel, in this example.
- List the dimensions that are actually controlled and the tolerance on each.
- Name the finish and what it has to survive.
- State the inspection level and who pays when a lot fails.

Processes involved
- sintering
- heat treatment
- die casting
- rubber vulcanisation
- injection moulding
- cold forging
Where this example applies
Programmes that run vented design most often specify this build for workshop replacements. Related applications include boat trailers, long-haul trucks, camper conversions, fleet maintenance, agricultural trailers.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 2.5 sampling on the finished lot.
- Finish inspection under agreed lighting.
- Carton drop test on the first lot of a new packing specification.
Questions buyers ask
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 3000 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 3000 pieces per line.
How is packing specified?
Individual packing, inner box quantity and carton marking are confirmed at quotation stage so the cartons arrive ready for your warehouse.
What happens if a lot fails inspection?
The lot is re-inspected against the golden sample, and replacement pieces ship on the next available booking at our cost.
Send the specification you are working to and we will confirm what we can match, what we would change and why.
