REQUIREMENTS DOCUMENT

Aeroflex RD-301A Weather Radar Test Set

The United States Coast Guard (USCG) requires an to support the USCG marine navigation surface search, AN/SPS-78 radar systems on board most CG marine vessels. The requirement is detailed in Table 1 below:

Table 1:

CLIN Part Number Description UOM QTY

001 RD-301A IFR Aeroflex RD-301A Weather Radar Test Set EA 1

002 NA Calibration w/certificate EA 1

This is a brand specific requirement. Only the specified part numbers will fulfill the Coast Guard’s requirement. No substitutes.

Established test procedures and quality assurance standards are incorporated utilizing the IFR Aeroflex RD-301A Weather Radar Test Set. Any alternatives will require extensive reengineering, testing and research. Changes to all established quality assurance technical procedures and documentation will lead to delays and impact mission response. See Attachment 1b- Testing and Calibration Document_ ISO IEC 17025 2017.

The units being procured must be issued under warranty for a minimum of 30 days following the receipt of the units by the Government.

INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE TERMS:

Supplies will be inspected/accepted at:

TESTING PROCEDURES:

RD-301A Radar Test Set will be tested with calibrated Keysight MXG Analog Signal Generator, Model N5183B, 9 kHz-13GHz and a calibrated Keysight N9343C Multiband Spectrum Analyzer, 1 MHz – 13GHz to (one) ensure the accuracy of the RD-301A Radar Test Set for radio frequency measurement, (two) measurement accuracy of pulsed RF power in both peak and effective power, (three) measurement accuracy of the Pulse Reoccurring Frequency (PRF), (four) measurement accuracy of both course and fine attenuation adjustments for IF sensitivity.

The RD-301A Radar Test will be tested to ensure its functionality and capability with a AN/SPS- 50, 25kW, RF power output, Marine Search Radar system, to ensure that the RD-301A can (one) track the pulsed modulated radio frequency transmitted from this radar without the use of additional means, such as external analog trigger to synchronize the RD-301A Radat Test Set to the AN/SPS-50 Radar system. The RD-301A must be able to track the AN/SPS-50 radar pulse modulated RF transmitted output through a bidirectional coupler without no additional aids or means, (two) provide two target returns by producing pulsed modulated radio frequency echo returns in the form of targets for PPI display on the SPS-50 radar PPI display. All control knobs, meters and LED indicators must be in full working order.

PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE:

All units must ship within 60 days from date of award.

SHIPPING ADDRESS AND INSTRUCTIONS:

All units must be shipped to USCG, C5ISC-ERF, 2401 Hawkins Point Rd., Bld.88-1, Baltimore, Md 21226, C/O Anthony S. Kritsings. USCG Technical POC Anthony S. Kritsings, Technical Representative, (410) 762-6669, Anthony.S.Kritsings@uscg.mil Awarded vendor must ensure test equipment is adequately protected against shipping and handling impacts and water intrusion. Packaging of sufficient thickness to protect against falls of up to six feet is a must.

It is important that the awarded vendor send either an email and/or phone call to the technical representative as to when material is shipped and include shipping tracking number information.

Failure to do so can result in delays in receipt of material and invoice verification.

SECTION 508:

Section 508 Requirements do not apply to this procurement.
