Firms responding shall specify that their products meet the specifications provided below and provide detailed product information to show clear technical compliance. Additionally, sales history including recent commercial companies sold to shall be included to determine commerciality. The specific technical requirements for the Vibration System are as follows: Definition of Costs: Cost includes equipment, delivery, installation, initial calibration, first year maintenance, minimum one year warranty, and initial training. Test Area Size: Must provide horizontal and vertical testing capacity. Include a minimum 1440 mm x 1440 mm slip plate for horizontal testing. Include a 762 mm x 1440 mm guided head expander for vertical testing. Slip plate and head expander shall have a 4" grid of 3/8 UNC inserts for payload attachment. Maximum Exterior Dimensions (Shaker and Slip Plate): 108" x 56" x 68" (L x W x H) Performance: Must be able to maintain the following conditions for testing: Displacement (pk-pk) - continuous of 76.2 mm Sine Force (peak) = 35.6 kN Max. Acceleration (sine peak) = 90.9 g Random Force (rms) = 32.5 kN Max. Acceleration (random rms) = 76.1 g Velocity (sine peak) = 1.8 m/s Usable Frequency Range of 0 Hz - 2.6 kHz Have a minimum internal load support capacity of 600 kg Controller: Provide closed-loop control for random, swept-sine, resonance dwell, classical shock, random- and sine-on-random, shock SRS, and field data replication. Power loss protector module to ensure smooth shaker shutdown and save data if power is lost. Environmental: Vibration system must be able to operate in the following environmental conditions: Temperature: 10 - 30ºC Power: Must be able to operate on: 480VAC/60Hz/Three Phase, 100 Amps Max 110VAC/60Hz, 30 Amps Max Control/Display: Must be able to control and display the vibration systems. Data Collection: Must be able to record the vibration parameters and data. Must be able to auto-generate plots/graphs in MS Word format. Must be compatible with Windows 7. All interested firms shall submit a response demonstrating their capabilities to produce the requested equipment to the Primary Point of Contact listed below. As stipulated in FAR 15.201, responses to this notice are not considered offers and cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract.
