- Notice Number: 145034240107SM Notice Type: Sources Sought Synopsis Title: Industrial Physics PM710 Bench-Top Paramagnetic Oxygen Analyzer Response Date: August 7, 2024 This is a SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS and is not a pre-solicitation announcement. The purpose of this Market Research and Sources Sought Notice is to gain knowledge of potential qualified U.S. Domestic businesses, which could include Small Business, HUBZone, 8(a), Service Disabled Veteran Owned, Women Owned Small Business firms and even Large Businesses. Responses to this Sources Sought Synopsis will be used by the Government in making appropriate acquisition decisions. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR), Earth Systems Research Laboratories (ESRL), Global Monitoring Laboratory (GML) has used a Beckman E2 paramagnetic oxygen analyzer to measure the percent oxygen in gas cylinders containing natural air or a mixture of oxygen and nitrogen (synthetic air) since the mid-1980s. The Beckman instrument has failed and is not repairable due to its age (~40 years old). The Industrial Physics PM710 has performance characteristics that are comparable with the current Beckman instrument. The GML needs a new bench-top paramagnetic oxygen analyzer like the PM710 in order to maintain continuity with previous work conducted over the last 30 years, and maintain a similar level of uncertainty in calibration work related to measurements. INTENDED USE/PURPOSE: The Industrial Physics PM710 paramagnetic oxygen analyzer is the bench-top version of the PM700 series instruments. The instrument utilizes a magneto-dynamic (dumb-bell) transducer for high performance oxygen analysis. It has a performance level of less than or equal to 0.05% precision on percent level oxygen, which is required to ensure the continuity and similarity within GML�s research. �This is the only known instrument that can meet the Government�s needs, and this notice�s intent is to identify any other products that meet the full requirements listed below. SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS/ESSENTIAL SALIENT FEATURES: General Specifications: PM710 Bench/Panel Mount 190H x 237W x 410D (mm) 8.5kg Technical Specifications: Measurement range: Autoranging from 0.01 to 100% O2 Detection limit: 0.01% O2 Display resolution: 2 decimal places (0.01 to 99.99%) Display type: 5-digit High Visibility LED Response time: 90% of reading (T90) less than 6 seconds Linearity: Better than �0.1% O2 Zero-point drift: Better than �0.1% per week Repeatability: Better than �0.03% O2 Pressure compensation: Automatic compensation option Temperature influence at zero: < �0.05% O2/�C Temperature influence span: < �0.20% of measured value /�C Barometric pressure influence on zero: No influence Barometric pressure influence span: 1% air pressure change causes 1% change in reading without automatic compensation (option) Operating Conditions: Sample Gas Pressure: 0.1 to 5 BarG Ambient Temperature: -10 to +45�C Sample Connections: 1/8"" OD Compression fittings Communications: RS232/485 Power Requirements: Power Supply: 230/115 Vac, 50/60 Hz at 40VA Options: High/Low Alarms: 2-volt free changeover contacts. Rated 240V, 3A Analogue Outputs: Scalable 4-20mA (0-20mA), 0-10V, 0-100mV all isolated Pressure Compensation: Integrated absolute pressure compensation, 800-1100 mBar Sample Stream Options: Internal sample pump, Flow alarm, Pressure regulator Ex-Proof Sensor Housing: Use this option for explosive gas mixtures (e.g. H2, Butane, CO, H2S etc.) Features and Benefits: Paramagnetic sensor with PID temperature control for best in class performance Optional barometric pressure compensation for purity analysis Auto calibration option Large auto-ranging LED display Specific to oxygen Excellent linearity and accuracy Operator Interface/Diagnostics: User-friendly menu Read-only mode available Diagnostic capabilities Fault alarms Output and Alarm Options: For charting, process control, or remote monitoring: RS232 / 485 Analogue outputs (three channels) High / low alarms Fault alarms Sampling Systems: Bypass flowmeter Pressure regulator Sample pump Flow alarm DELIVERY SCHEDULE: Deliver by 60 days after date of award. The North American Industry Classification Code (NAICS) is 334516 with a size standard of 1,000 employees. Interested firms shall provide, in writing, a brief narrative (no more than 3 pages in length) and documentation to support your firm�s capability and experience meeting the requirements herein and include your firm�s name, address, point of contact, telephone number, UEID Number, CCR CAGE Number, business type and size (i.e., small, large, non-profit, educational, etc.). Any response that does not include this information will not be considered. The Government will review your response to determine if your firm has the experience, knowledge and capability to provide the items as specified above. This request for information does not constitute a commitment, implied or otherwise, that a procurement action will be issued. Nor does this request for information constitute a commitment, implied or otherwise, that any procurement action may be issued for the Government�s requirements. No entitlement to payment of direct or indirect costs or charges by the Government will arise because of the submission of contractor�s information. The Government shall not be liable for or suffer any consequential damages for proprietary information not properly identified. Proprietary information will be safeguarded in accordance with the applicable Government regulations. All contractors doing business with the Government are required to be registered and active with the System for Award Management (SAM) website. NOTE: THIS SYNOPSIS IS NOT CONSIDERED A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL BUT A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ONLY. No solicitation document is available. No contract will be awarded based on responses received to this notice.
