COMMERCE BUSINESS DAILY ISSUE OF JULY 28,1995 PSA#1398U.S. EPA Region 4, 345 Courtland Street N.E., Atlanta, GA 30365 66 -- ATOMIC ABSORPTION SPECTROPHOTOMETER GRAPHITE FURNACE SOL
W5-40870-F4 due 091495. Contact Point, Larry D. LaRue, (706) 546-3165,
Contracting Officer, Jeffrey L. Napier, (404) 347-2374X6836. It is the
intent of the U.S. EPA to negotiate with Perkin Elmer for the
acquisition of an Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer Graphite
(Transverse) Furnace with multi-analyte capability. This instrument
should be able to perform EPA Method 200.9 and achieve detection limits
for Sb. As Se. T1. below 1 uqL while performing simultaneous analyses.
This instrument must have the following components: a suitable sample
introduction system for liquid samples, a graphite furnace capable of
the rapid heating necessary for stabilized temperature platform
furnace operation, a background correction system that will resolve
analyte signal from background on a fast transient basis (Zeeman effect
background corrections is required), lamp power supplies for both
hollow cathode lamps (HCLs) and electrodeless discharge lamps (EDLs),
and optical system for isolating wavelengths of interest, a detector
capable of processing more than one analyte signal at a time, a cooling
unit to provide removal of excess heat from the furnace, a fume
extraction system, when coupled with the laboratory hood, provides a
safe removal of all vaporized sample matrix, analyte, and matrix
modifier and a computer, printer and software for controlling the
instrument and accessories. (206) Loren Data Corp. http://www.ld.com (SYN# 0463 19950727\66-0011.SOL)
