- Description
- This is not a solicitation announcement. This is a sources sought notice only. This is not a request for proposals and in no way obligates the Government to award any contract. The purpose of this sources sought notice is to gain knowledge of any commercially available vendors that may be of interest to the USCG. The United States Coast Guard Aviation Logistics Center is conducting market research to determine if any vendors are available that can supply Uninterruptable Power Supplies (UPS) for use with the C-130 Airborne Sensor with Palletized Electronic Reconnaissance (CASPER) system designed to provide target classification, evaluation, and identification by use of a state-of-the-art FLIR/EO sensor. Data obtained from the system is transmitted to operational commanders and is used to interdict suspect targets on law enforcement (counter-narcotics and fishery) patrols, as well as search and rescue missions. The UPS will be installed aboard operational Long Range Surveillance aircraft (HC130H) and must meet the following specifications: Parameter Values Input Voltage AC (AC Input) 115 / 200V AC, 400 Hz 3 Ph WYE Input Power Factor > 0.95 Input Connector MS3102R20-15P (Mate MS3106E20-15S) Battery Voltage 108 V DC Nominal Battery Charge Voltage 124V DC Battery Low Warning 96 VDC Output Voltage 115 V AC 400 Hz Output Power 3 KW Over Load Capability 110% for 5 Minutes Harmonics Distortion THD < 5%, Single Harmonic < 3% Efficiency ≥ 80 % Load Regulation < 3 % No Load to Full Load Output Connector MS3102R20-19S (Mate MS3106E20-19P) Input / Output Isolation Galvanic Isolation between Input & Output Protections Input Circuit Breakers Indicator lights for Over Load, Over Temp, and Low Battery Operating Temperature -20° C to 50° C Storage Temperature -20° C to 50° C Operating Humidity < 95% NC Automatic sensing circuit to switch from AC Power to Battery Backup and alarm to notify operator Battery Enable/Disable Function Size (W/O Handles & Connectors) 24" (L) x 19" (W) x 7" (H) Rack mounted from the sides Chassis Slides Cooling Forced Air by Internal Fans Extra Ruggedization Extra Filtering for MIL-STD-461 Compliance Weight shall not exceed 130 lbs.
