E-MAIL: Dahlgren Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center, sd13@nswc.navy.mil. The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) is requesting information on a Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) to provide AC/DC power for worldwide deployment in harsh physical and electrical environments, such as installations on mobile or tracked communication vehicles in support of US Marine Corps mission requirements. An UPS that has been fielded by the US military or that meets US military requirements is preferred. The UPS must be packaged (or be capable of being packaged) with a max weight of 92 lbs (including battery) and a max envelop of 6.6x17x17 inches. The UPS shall have the following minimum input, output, and environmental characteristics: Simultaneous AC and DC inputs-AC takes precedence over DC-which takes precedence over internal UPS battery; Surge/spike protection for input power; Alarms for loss of AC power/vehicle battery power below threshold/and internal battery nearing discharge threshold; AC Input of 80-280 Volts/47-63 Hz frequency/<20 Amps/Power Factor Corrected to 0.8 min; DC Input of 22-32 Volts at 70 Amps, Continuous Output Power of 1000W (either AC or DC); AC Output 115 Volts 5%/60 .5 Hz frequency/sinusoidal waveform at less than 1.5% THD; DC Output 24 Volts 5%; Conversion Efficiency AC or DC greater than 75%; Internal Battery can supply 500W continuous for 30 min./1000W continuous for 15 min.; Electronic Magnetic Pulse (EMP) protection; Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI) Protection per MIL-STD-461C-Notice 2; Operating Temperature from 0 0F to 120 0F; Storage Temperature from -250F to 150 0F; Shock Temperature from 0 0F to 70 0F and 120 0F to 70 0F in 10 minutes or less; Turn-on Temperature from 0 0F to 40 0F in 10 minutes or less; Humidity from 10 % to 95% (non-condensing); Altitude from 0 to 15,000 ft (operating) and 0 to 40,000 ft (non-operating); Shock/Drop per the latest Military Standard (MIL-STD); Operate in conditions of blown precipitation per MIL-STD-810E-506.3-Procedure II notice I; Operate in Sand/Dust at least 3.5 mph, 20 minutes per MIL-STD-810E-510.3-Procedure I & II; operate inclined on any axis; Fungus-No nutrients or contaminants per MIL-STD-454M-Requirement 4; Transportation Vibration in wheeled vehicle and tracked vehicles @ 10 mph over cross country terrain per MIL-STD-810E-514.4-Procedure I category 8; 1000 BTU max @ nominal input and full load. This information includes sources, contract vehicles, technical information and approximate cost of government-off-the shelf and commercial-off-the shelf products that can meet the requirements. NO SOLICITATION EXISTS AT THIS TIME. This request is for information only. This inquiry is intended to identify likely commercial products that will fill part or all of the requirements for the UPS and obtain a summary of each product's capabilities. As industry may expect to see portions of submitted information in future solicitations, no proprietary information may be submitted. All interested firms shall e-mail to sd13@nswc.navy.mil by 30 June 1999, 2:00pm EST. Please reference number N00178-99-Q-3006, provide company name, point of contact, telephone and fax numbers, e-mail address, information regarding business capabilities and business size. THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT INTEND TO AWARD A CONTRACT ON THE BASIS OF THIS REQUEST FOR INFORMATION OR OTHERWISE PAY FOR THE INFORMATION SOLICITED. The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division, Dahlgren Laboratory Procurement Division is implementing Electronic commerce (EC) in the acquisition area, therefore synopsis and resulting solicitations with any applicable amendments will be available on the World Wide Web at http://www.nswc.navy.mil/supply under Procurement Division.
