- Description
- The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) plans to conduct negotiations on a sole source basis with CPS Instruments, Inc. for a disc centrifuge particle size analyzer. Qualified organizations are encouraged to submit a capabilities statement which addresses the requirements and contains material in sufficient detail to allow NIOSH to determine if the organization can provide this requirement. Capabilities are to be received in the NIOSH contracting office no later than fifteen (15) days from the date of this announcement. Submit written information to: Patricia Rose, CDC/PGO/AAFB, 4676 Columbia Parkway, Cincinnati, Ohio 45226, Mail Stop C-4. Reference #000HCC95-2004-09993. The intent of this synopsis is to determine whether alternative sources exist. Information received will be used solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination by the Government not to complete this proposed requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. All responsible sources may submit a response, which shall be considered by the Agency. CAPABILITIES REQUIREMENTS: Through this announcement, alternate sources are being offered the opportunity to demonstrate their capabilities to provide the equipment specifically identified as follows. To be considered qualified, sources must submit a capabilities statement, which demonstrates in writing that they can meet the following technical specifications for a disc centrifuge particle size analyzer: Description A disc centrifuge capable of measuring the size of suspended particles from less than 10 nm in diameter to greater than 10 ?m, within a range of liquids, and capable of characterizing samples with a dynamic range of over 500. The disc centrifuge analyzer must be capable of running at speeds up to 24,000 RPM, allowing characterization of particles as small as 3 nanometers. NIOSH research requires a disc centrifuge which can analyze particles as small as 3 nanometers. Technical Specifications for a Disc Centrifuge Particle Size Analyzer Maximum Disc Speed 24,000 RPM Minimum Measurable Size < 0.01 ?m Maximum Measureable Size > 10 ?m Dynamic range: >500 Minimum Resolution 10% Minimum Accuracy (Compared to calibration standard) +/- 2% Reporting Modes Weight, Surface Area, Number Autogradient Builder Included Speed ramping Disc Included Gradient able to run multiple samples Required
