THE ARL CONDUCTS APPLIED RESEARCH INTO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND TRANSPORT. THE ATMOSPHERIC SCIENCES MODELING DIVISION OF ARL REQUIRES TWO (2) CRDS ANALYZERS AND ONE (1) PHONO CONVERTER FOR ATMOSPHERIC NITROGEN OXIDE MEASUREMENT FOR FIELD DEPLOYMENTS ON A NUMBER OF RESEARCH AND MONITORING PLATFORMS, INCLUDING FIXED GROUND SITES, MOBILE (INSTRUMENTED VEHICLE) PLATFORMS, AND AIRCRAFT PLATFORMS. THE INSTRUMENTS WILL BE USED IN THE UPCOMING UTAH SUMMER OZONE STUDY (USOS) FIELD INVESTIGATION SCHEDULED FOR SALT LAKE CITY IN SUMMER 2024. THEY MUST BE HIGHLY SENSITIVE, RUGGED, ROBUST, ACCURATE, AND PRECISE, AND MUST BE CAPABLE OF FAST RESPONSE. THE REQUIRED INSTRUMENTS ARE DESIGNED TO DIRECTLY MEASURE THE CRITERIA POLLUTANT NITROGEN DIOXIDE (NO2) KNOWN TO AFFECT HUMAN HEALTH. THEY FEATURE ADVANCED SPECTROSCOPIC TECHNIQUE INNOVATIONS, WHICH ENABLE PRECISE AND REAL-TIME MEASUREMENT OF NO2 CONCENTRATIONS IN AMBIENT AIR. THEY HAVE A FAST RESPONSE TIME OF AT LEAST 1 HZ MEASUREMENT CYCLE, AND ARE DUAL CHANNEL FOR SYNCHRONOUS MEASUREMENTS OF NO, NO2, AND NOX. THEY MAKE TRUE NO2 MEASUREMENTS WITH LITTLE INTERFERENCE, AND DO NOT USE CHEMILUMINESCENCE. THIS BRAND OF CRDS AND PHONO ARE THE ONLY BRAND DETERMINED TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE ARL. DELIVERY WITHIN THREE (3) MONTHS FROM DATE OF AWARD. ***THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS AND NO SOLICITATION PACKAGE IS AVAILABLE.
