- Description
- The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency [U S EPA] Environmental Sciences Division [ESD] intends to award a sole source fixed-price Purchase Order using Federal Acquisition Regulation [FAR] Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures, to Colorado State University under the authority of FAR Part 6.302-1. The Government will award a Purchase Order resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer, conforming to the solicitation provisions, offers the best value to the Government. This procurement is set-aside for small business. The purpose of this acquisition is to acquire a high voltage power supply instrument that allows the operation of a microcapillary electrophoresis system that can separate compounds (such as non-active nerve agent breakdown products) within several minutes. We require this instrument to conduct our research under EP A's Research Mission. Attached are SOW, Product Description, and Product Specification. Vendor must provide Federal Tax Identification Number, Dun and Bradstreet Number and Central Contractor Registration to be eligible for award. The NAICS code for this procurement is 811212. Any firm who believes it is capable of meeting EPA??s requirement as stated herein may submit a response which, if received by January 29, 2007 by 5:00pm EST will be considered. Responses to this posting must be in writing via email to Kevin Broadnax. The estimated magnitude of this procurement is under $25,000. All questions should be directed to Kevin Broadnax via email at broadnax.kevin@epa.gov. SOW for High Voltage Power Supply A high voltage power supply is an instrument that allows the operation of a microcapillary electrophoresis system that can separate compounds (such as non-active nerve agent breakdown products) within several minutes. We require this instrument to conduct our research under EP A's Research Mission. We require a High Voltage Power Supply with the following Specifications: Product Specifications Triple Output High Voltage Power Supply with 3 Timed Relays OUTPUT POWER SUPPLIES 3 independent internal power supplies based on Ultravolt 6A series with -FMC option 2 positive, 1 negative regulated and current limited High Voltage outputs Output adjustment range: 50 to 6000 Vdc Maximum power per supply: 4 W Maximum current per supply: 550 uA Ripple with full load at 6 kV: 0.0005% V p-p Dynamic Load Regulation, 1/2 to Full Load, Max Eout per 0.1 mA: <6 V pk Line Regulation, Nominal input, Max Eout, full power: 0.01 % Vdc Stability, 30 minute warm up, per 8 hour day: <0.01 %/0.02% Vdc TIMED OUTPUT RELAYS 3 internal timed High Voltage relay circuits based on Gigavac model GR5MTA Voltage Ratings between Contacts: 15 kV pk Current Carry @ DC: 5 A Contact Resistance: 0.250 Ohm Capacitance Across Open Contacts: 1 pF Closed Contacts to Ground: 8 pF Initial Insulation Resistance: 10 GigaOhms Operate Time: 3 ms Release Time: 2ms Mechanical Life/ Rated Load: 100 million cycles Operating Temperature Range: -20 to +70 ??C Product Description Triple Output High Voltage Power Supply with 3 Timed Relays The power supply was designed specifically for use with a capillary electrophoresis cell. It has 3 variable high voltage outputs; 2 positive and one negative. The 3 supplies are internally connected to a common earth ground for safety and are voltage regulated and current limited. The voltage and current of the supplies can be individually monitored with a 4 1/2 digit display. . In normal operation the 3 power supply outputs are connected to the electrophoresis cell through the timed relay matrix. A common (COM), a normally open (NO) and a normally closed (NC) pin is available for each of the 3 relays. The relays are switched simultaneously. The output and input pins of the 3 relays are electrically isolated from each other as well as ground. The internal microprocessor initiates a timed closure of the relays that is dependant on the setting of the rotary selector switch. A custom timing sequence can also be programmed into the non-volatile memory of the processor by the end user. Custom programming is accomplished through the serial port on the supply. The programming software is available at no cost and relies on a subset of the BASIC language. The software is compatible with Windows, Linux and Macintosh platforms and is available for free download from: http://www.parallax.com/html_pages/downloads/software_basic_stamp.asp Programming requires a PC with an open serial port and 9 pin cable (not supplied).
