- Description
- The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Office of Acquisition Management (OAM), Emergency Response Service Center (ERSC) on behalf of the US EPA Natioanl Exposure Research Lab in Research Triangle Park, NC intends to award a sole source purchase order under the authority of FAR 6.302 to TSI, Inc for a Laser Aerosol Spectrometer. The NAICS code for this procurement is:334516. The Model 3340 provides the unique ability of ultra-high sensitivity and high resolution particle size measurements over a range of 0.09 to 7.5um. EPA knows of no other spectrometer available that offers particle sizing covering this range, which fully covers the aerosol of interest for inhalation toxicology. The Model 3340 features a patented recessed intracavity optical surface which will allow extended operation of the instrument between maintenance, particularly when measuring high concentration secondary organic aerosol which tends to quickly contaminate instrumentation. This equipme nt also provides a level of off the shelf compatibility with existing TSI Inc instrumentation and the current data acquisition system in the Mobile Reaction Chamber. If there are any other known sources capable of providing such equipment, please submit your capability statement via email to: scott.elaine@epa.gov no later than September 26, 2013 12 noon EST. NO PHONE CALLS WILL BE ACCEPTED. The determination not to compete this requirement is at the discretion of the Contracting Officer, Elaine Scott in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(iv)(b).
