This is a Market Survey to locate sources for spares for the IREMBASS. We are buying 52 of each Sensors that are part of IREMBASS. The Sensors are the following: DT-561A/GSQ (NSN 6350-01-345-3561, P/N C5088161), DT-562A/GSQ (NSN 6350-01-348-3145, P/N C5088162), DT-565A/GSQ (NSN 6350-01-346-7717, P/N C5088165). The DT-561A is a magnetic sensor that responds to disturbances in the earth's magnetic field surrounding the sensors transducer a magnetometer that is internally mounted. The DT-562A is a seismic sensor monitors the seismic (earth tremors) and acoustic (sound) activity in its detection radius. The DT-565A is an infrared sensor responds to temperatures changes in a narrow field of view directly in front of the transducer only. In addition 175 Monitor/ Progammers (AN/PSQ-7, NSN 5895-01-292-0838) will be procured. The PSQ-7 program the sensors and displays information on sensor activation. The developer and current source for these items is Lockheed Martin Communication System (LMCS), Cage 11447. Detailed technical data is available for these items, however the Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) needed to test these items is not available at the present time. This ATE which is a Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) of an estimated cost of $1.2M are being used on the IREMBASS Program at the present time.
