Description

Performance Specification for the F-16 Expanded Enhanced Fire Control Computer (EEFCC) Power Converter Assembly for Block 25, 30 and 32. This announcement constitutes a Sources Sought Synopsis. The following information is provided to assist the Air Force in conducting a Market Research of Industry to determine potential contractors who have the skills, experience and knowledge required to successfully completing this effort. This is not a Request for Proposal or invitation for Bid. The F-16 Support Division, Avionics section has a requirement for manufacture and delivery of the Power supply (NSN: 5998-01-253-2280), PN: 7565637-021. The Power Converter Assembly is for the Enhances Expanded Fire Control Computer (EEFCC) within the F-16 Block 25 and 30 Weapon System. The Air Force would like to replace this Shop Replaceable Unit, Power Converter Assembly with a new design, under Falcon Flex Program (Form, Fit and Function Interface Requirement). We are seeking contractors who are interested in designing and manufacturing high reliability Power Converter Assembly using modern technology rather than traditional build to print requirements. Interested parties would be required to design a new Power Converter Assembly and manufacture as many as 725 units to replace the existing units which are the cause of unacceptable support problems in the F-16 Weapon Systems. A top level drawing describing of the current Power Converter Assembly is available. Interested parties are requested to submit two copies of a summary of the capabilities and facilities they have which will allow them to perform the development and manufacture of the new Power Converter Assembly. The Government does not intend to contract on the basis of this request or otherwise pay for the information solicited. Here is some of the Power Converter Assembly Specification. The converter shall operate with input voltage ranging from 102 to 124 V rms, 400 Hz, three phase. The converter output voltages measured at P1 will be different than original and within room ambient -45 to +70C shall be as follow : 15.00+/-0.60 V dc -15.00+/-0.60 V dc 5.00 +/- 0.40 V dc The output ripple voltage are measured at P1 with bandwidth limited to 100 KHz, shall be as follow: 15 V 72 mV rms max -15 V 72 mV rms max +5 V 36 mV rms max The input current to the converter at 115+/-1 V ac, 400+/-20 Hz, three-phase input at nominal load, measured in the three-phase neutral line, shall be 2.20+/-0.25A dc and 1.00+0.30. Written responses must be submitted by May 30, 2001 to 00-ALC/LGFAC ATTN: Mac Mesdaghi, F-16 Core Avionics System Engineer, 6070 Gum Lane BLDG 1213, Hill AFB, UT 84056-5820. If any technical question call Mac at (801) 775-4586.
