Description

USACE, Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) proposes to issue a sole source award to Kinemetrics, Incorporated, 222 Vista Ave, Pasadena, CA 91107 for twelve (12) Strong-Motion Earthquake Recorders. Of these, ten (10) will be ETNA models an d two (2) will be multi-sensor K2 models, both are manufactured by Kinemetrics, Inc. These instruments must have undergone extensive testing and practical field evaluation in a government sponsored earthquake engineering program. The specifications include : ACCELEROMETER Tri-axial force balance type internal or external mounting Range: User selectable from + 0.25g to + 4g Bandwidth: DC to 200 Hz Dynamic Range: 155 dB+ Non-linearity: less than 0.1% FSO Hysterias: less than 0.1% FSO Cross-axis Sensitivity: less than 1% Calibration: Active calibration coil DATA ACQUISITION Number of channels: 3 primary, with optional 4th Channel Dynamic range: 108dB @ 200 samples per second (SPS) Resolution: 18-bit resolution @200 SPS Sample rates: Software selectable 100, 200, 250 SPS Frequency Response: DC  80 Hz @ 200 SPS Noise: less than 8 micro-volts RMS Input range: -2.5 to +2.5 volts Sampling: Simultaneous sample and hold (no skew) Filter: FIR filter, cut-off @ 0.8 Nyquist, 120dB down Trigger: Independent channel thresholds Trigger Bandwidth IIR band pass .1 to 12.5 Hz Event memory: 10 seconds pre-trigger, 3600 seconds post-trigger, selectable in 1-second increments. I/O Features: Clock sync - 1 pps out, trigger in/out, alarm out, real time digital output (Tx & Rx),external 12V DC out, and Relay Alarm thresholds: .01 to 100% full-scale output (FSO) SYSTEM Simultaneous acquisition and interrogations required 2 - PCMCIA storage slots 1  64 MB PCMCIA memory card 1 - PCMCIA modem card option Recording Capacity: Minimum of 256 Minutes of 24-bit data on 3 channels @200 Hz. File Format: DOS or MS Windows Timing: Free running disciplined oscillator  5 microsecond of UTC. Controls: User interface to set sample rate, filter, trigger type and voltage. Interface: Interface for data retrieval and control via RS-232 or FTP via internal Modem Diagnostics: Auto diagnostics and auto alert features required to notify in the event of major system malfunctions such as RAM, power, temperature, code or timing errors. Power: Minimum of 36 hours continuous operation Consumption NTE 110 mA in active mode Rechargeable 12V gel cell battery, 6.5 Amp hour rating. PHYSICAL Housing: Reinforced Lexan or equivalent strength material, EMI/RFI Shielded External Military Style threaded connections for Inputs, Trigger, Charging, Antenna, etc. Adjustable leveling feet required. Size: NTE 12W x 15L x 8H Weight: NTE 25 lbs. ENVIRONMENTAL Operating Temperature range: -20?C to 70?C Humidity: 0  100% RH SOFTWARE Window based control and retrieval software (via RS-232 or Modem) included Windows based data review and plotting software included Two of these instruments will be configured as multi-sensor instruments for both in put from an internal and external accelerometer package. A firm-fixed price award will be made utilizing Simplified Acquisition Procedures. Any other responsible sources able to provide the supplies are encouraged to respond to this announcement within 15 days after its publication. This is not a request for qu otations and there is no solicitation available at this time. The NAICS code for this requirement is 334516 and FSC is 6640. These instruments should be delivered to USACE, Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) approximately 60 days after receipt of order.
