The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), Cold Regions Research Laboratory (CRREL) intends to award a contract on a sole source basis Silixa LLC upon the basis of the authority provided at FAR 13.106-1(b).
ERDC-CRREL in Fort Wainwright, Alaska intends to procure one (1) Silixa ruggedized distributed temperature sensor (DTS) unit (model XT-DTS M) with an XT-DTS enclosure made of stainless steel that includes an optical splice tray with external fiber reference chamber, solar panels, and batteries to power the DTS, and a technician to install the device on-site at the Arctic Infrastructure Research Center (AIRC) in Fairbanks, AK.
Requirement: The Contractor shall provide the following exact brand and models to be fully interoperable with CRREL-s existing units in order to maintain integrity and consistency with data already collected and to connect with portions of CRREL-s fiber optic array:
Ruggedized Distributed Temperature Sensor (DTS) (p/n XT-DTS M): Stand-alone unit with an on-board PC and user-friendly software interface with four (4) optical channels. This unit must be able to operate in temperatures ranging from -40˚C to +65˚C; sustainable on solar or wind power without compromising superior accuracy and reliability. Unit must provide temperature resolution from 0.01˚C. Spatial sampling must be 25cm and a 65cm spatial resolution with a 10km maximum range. Unit must be configurable to produce both single-ended and double-ended measurements with a minimum measurement time of one (1) second. Unit needs to have a variable range feature. This feature varies the laser repetition rate to optimize temperature resolution for any length of fiber. Unit must have self-calibrating utility and on-board solid-state storage. The system needs to have low power requirements (12-24V DC). Unit must contain the capability to be configured and controlled remotely via a wireless or satellite link enabling ...
