Description

Sources Sought Notice

Portable Photosynthesis System

Sources Sought #1133662-SS



This is a Sources Sought notice Only. This is NOT a solicitation for proposals, proposal abstracts, or quotations. This Sources Sought is issued for information and planning purposes only as part of USDA ARS market research and does not itself constitute an RFQ.



Background

The USDA ARS needs a portable photosynthesis system to be used in the field.

Requirements

CO2 and H2O infrared gas analyzers must be located in the sensor head, so gas concentrations are measured within the leaf cuvette mixing volume. H2O must be measured with a highly precise infrared gas analyzer, not a capacitance relative humidity sensor. The gas analyzer CO2 signal noise accuracy must be no less accurate than +/-2 µmol mol-1 @ The system must have a Sunlight Readable Touch Screen. The system must be expandable to measure gas exchange and fluorescence simultaneously over the same leaf area with full control of environmental variables. System Fluorometer must support Induction Kinetics with frequencies of 1 Hz to 250 kHz, actinic Light Output 0-3000 µmol m-2s-1 total at 25°C and have saturation light intensity of 0 to 16, 000 µmol m-2s-1 at 25°C. System Red/Blue Light Source must have Uniformity ±10% over 90% of the aperture. Instrument configuration and data acquisition must have the ability to be remotely controlled through Ethernet connection. System must have user settable Chamber Overpressure option. Unit must weigh less than 7lbs for ease of handling in the field for several hours at a time.
