About this file
This document outlines the minimum specifications for an automated fiber analyzer to be used by the USDA Agricultural Research Service Grazinglands Research Laboratory in El Reno, Oklahoma. The analyzer must be equal or comparable to the Ankom Delta Automated Model and capable of performing neutral detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber, and crude fiber determinations using filter bag technology. It must have computer controls for easy method selection and automated delivery of solutions and rinse water. An internal pump system is required for chemical delivery to eliminate handling. The unit must allow batch processing of twenty-four samples at a time and have dimensions of 56.61 cm by 38.1 cm by 58.42 cm to fit on the laboratory benchtop and allow for maintenance. The related federal contract opportunity is solicitation number 12805B23Q0742 for fiber analyzers and in vitro digestibility incubators from the Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service Plains Area.

Minimum Specifications
Ankom Automated Delta Fiber Analyzer
Equal or comparable to Ankom Delta Automated Model Abbreviations: NDF, neutral detergent fiber; ADF, acid detergent fiber; CF, crude fiber To perform NDF, ADF and CF determinations using filter bag technology.
Computer Controls: Easy selection of specified analytical method. Provides automated delivery of selected/specified NDF, ADF, and CF analytical method solutions and rinse water. Provides operations monitoring. Provides diagnostics.
Internal Pump System for automated chemical delivery of solutions and rinse water for NDF, ADF and CF supported methods to eliminate/reduce chemical handling for increased safety.
Maintenance Panel should allow for easy access for visual inspection, maintenance, or repair.
Auto Flush/Auto Clean operation to allow continuous transition between methods and maximize operations.
Connection Ports for Solutions: Should allow for a minimum of five (5) connections for chemical solutions/reagents. And provide easy connection and transition between fiber methods.
Should allow for a direct connection to hot water supply for automatic rinses and safety.
At a minimum, should provide batch processing of twenty-four (24) samples at one time using filter bag technology.
120 volt operational unit.
Overall Dimensions –56.61 cm (22.29”) L x 38.1 cm (15”) H x 58.42cm (23”) D
Research requires continuity in the treatment of samples through the years. Therefore any deviations from the above specifications may be considered unacceptable.
The overall dimensions of the Delta model [56.61 cm (22.29”) L x 38.1 cm (15”) H x 58.42cm (23”) D] fit in the benchtop in the laboratory. Allows for sufficient space on each side as well as minor maintenance.
