Request for Information Requiring Activity: U.S Army Test, Measurement, and Diagnostic Equipment Activity (USATA) PAN NUMBER: USATA NG-W80RA6-26-20C; UPR 13033 NAISC: 334515 NOTICE TYPE: Sources Sought/Request for Information SYNOPSIS: The Army Contracting Command - Redstone, Redstone Arsenal, Alabama 35898 on behalf of the U.S. Army Test, Measurement, and Diagnostic Equipment Activity (USATA) hereby issues the following Sources Sought/Request for Information (RFI) to ascertain the level of interest of potential vendors desiring to contract for procurement of: The US Army Primary Standards Laboratory (APSL) requires UV detector standards for use with the 365 nm UV calibrations at the Primary and Reference laboratories. The UV detector standard shall include two detectors: a Working Standard and a Check Standard. The requirements for both detector housings are: 1. The housing must be circular with a 1.500 inch outer diameter. 2. The front surface of the housing forms a reference plane. The detectors must be placed 0.335 inches behind the front surface. 3. The clear aperture of the front surface must be large enough to expose the entire active area of the detector. 4. Must include a cap or cover to protect the detector when not in use. Specific requirements for the Working Standard are: 1. UV damage resistant Silicon irradiance probe with adjustable position detector. Opto Diode Corp. model UVG100 or comparable detector. 2. High precision current-to-voltage preamplifier with gains by thermally stable feedback resistors from 1E+3 to 1E+8 ohms. Specific requirements for the Check Standard are: 1. Spectrally flat, 5 mm, Pyroelectric Detector Probe with two selectable gains: 1 G? and 10 G?. 2. Analog power supply that includes signal output and temperature output BNC connectors.
