Page 1 of 6 Page 6 of 6 STATEMENT OF WORK FOR Cryogenic Photon Absorption Spectroscopic Analysis & Reports For All Electrical Circuits & Equipment SCOPE: All electrical circuits and equipment require inspection to detect any anomaly that could result in interruption to hospital services, or adversely affect patient care. Using InGaAs liquid nitrogen cooled photon absorption spectrometer allows analysis of the electrical circuits and equipment without any interruption to hospital services, and has no adverse affect on patient care. The InGaAs liquid nitrogen cooled photon absorption spectrometer allows analysis of the electrical circuits and equipment without removal of any panel covers. This allows inspection of the circuits and equipment without exposing patients, staff, visitors or contractors to live energized conductors or parts. Cryogenic Photon Absorption Spectroscopic Analysis will detect any electrical anomaly in its earliest stage, allowing repairs to be made with minimal or no adverse affects to hospital services or patient care. The contractor shall furnish all labor, transportation, materials and a Cryogenic Photon Absorption Spectrometer instrument necessary to perform the Cryogenic Photon Absorption Spectrographic Analysis for all electrical circuits located at the James A. Haley Veterans Hospital (JAHVH), 13000 Bruce B. Downs Blvd., Tampa Florida in accordance with the paragraphs below. QUALIFICATIONS OF INSPECTION PERSONNEL The contractor shall provide an experienced qualified inspector with a minimum of 5 years Cryogenic Photon Absorption Spectrographic Analysis experience using InGaAs liquid nitrogen cooled Photon Absorption Spectrometer.
