About this file

This document is a Request for Information (RFI) for the Bureau of Reclamation's (BOR) Materials and Corrosion Lab. BOR is seeking to purchase eight (8) Interface 1010E Potentiostat/Galvanostat/ZRA and one (1) Interface Power Hub (120V) to support their current testing activities, which primarily use four Gamry potentiostats. The potentiostats are used to qualify commercial coatings for use in BOR's coatings specifications and for other electrochemical and corrosion testing. The RFI is not a solicitation for proposals, but a request to identify firms that can meet BOR's requirements under NAICS code 334516, Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing. Interested parties are asked to submit a capabilities statement, GSA number, UEI number, business size/status, point of contact, and past work experience by September 3, 2024 at 5:00 PM ET. No contract will be awarded as a result of this RFI.

Statement of Work (SOW)

Title: Multichannel Potentiostats

1. Background The Bureau of Reclamation’s (Reclamation) Materials and Corrosion Lab uses laboratory potentiostats for performance testing of commercial coatings via electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and electrochemical and corrosion tests. The potentiostats are used to qualify the commercial coatings for use in Reclamation’s coatings specifications. Potentiostats are also used for combinatorial testing and continuous corrosion monitoring, polarization tests, and cyclic voltammetry to aid in cathodic protection design.

Reclamation has four Gamry potentiostats used for qualifying commercial coatings: a FAS2 Femptostat, Reference 600+, and two Reference 620’s. The Reference 620’s are new and operable. The FAS2 runs on Windows 7 (Government computers require Windows 10), and the Reference 600+ has a noisy fan that the manufacturer will not replace.

The existing units are often running at capacity for EIS measurements on coatings, and additional capacity is needed to meet BIL-funding project needs. The downtime results in extended task timelines to troubleshoot and complete testing. Purchasing additional potentiostats now with a multichannel interface for simultaneous measurement on up to eight channels will increase capability, allowing for high throughput and helping to ensure efficient testing during increased workload due to BIL-funded projects.

New potentiostats from Gamry Instruments are desired to maintain compatibility with all existing hardware and software. This provides efficiencies for data collection and analysis as well as for technical support from the manufacturer.

2. Scope This scope of work is to purchase eight (8) Interface 1010E Potentiostat/Galvanostat/ZRA; one

(1) Interface Power Hub (120V) (with power cord) to support the current testing that is primarily using four Gamry potentiostats. These instruments are extremely sensitive, allowing for high accuracy measurement of EIS on protective coatings with high impedance values due to their ability to measure very low currents.

The purchase is to include hardware/software, cell cables, and calibration cell, as well as shipping and lifetime technical support.

3. Tasks Deliver one complete multichannel potentiostat system meeting the following minimum specifications:

P a g e 2 | 3

a) One (1) Interface Power Hub (120V), eight (8) Interface 1010E Potentiostat/Galvanostat/ZRA, and dedicated software:

i) Each channel can be run both independently and simultaneously

ii) The test system reduces the number of AC outlets/power cords for eight independent potentiostats and a laptop computer from 10 AC outlets/power cords to 2 AC outlets/power cords

iii) No sacrifice in performance to gain higher experimental throughput

iv) Instrument USB ports max power supply current 50 mA

v) 10-port High Speed USB hub

vi) Potentiostats containing Direct Digital Synthesis to accurately measure impedances up to 1010 ohms.

vii) Potentiostats containing nine current ranges from 10 nA to 1 A, maximum current of

100 mA, and 20 V compliance voltage.

viii)Hardware and software that is computer controlled and able to run on Microsoft operating system, Windows 10 or better.

b) Power cords and cables to connect the computer to the Interface Power Hub and

Interface 1010E potentiostats.

c) Calibration cell.

d) Instrument manual.

The system shall be plug-and-play and usable once setup. No additional modifications prior to production level work should be required. The system shall be provided with up-to-date equipment calibration documentation and shall be manufactured with all new parts.

The system shall include at least a two-year warranty provided by the supplier. Supplier must have lifetime technical support.

4. Qualifications The Contractor must have at least 10 years in business of providing complete potentiostat systems for corrosion and protective coating evaluations and technical support.

5. Delivery The supplier is responsible for delivering the entire system, as detailed in the Tasks Section, to the loading dock at entrance S-6 of Building 56 on the Denver Federal Center in Denver, Colorado – this type of international delivery is sometimes referred to as “Delivered to Place.” The supplier is responsible for ensuring the system is undamaged during the shipping process and comes equipped with all required parts.

6. Place of Performance POC and delivery address will be provided at time of award.

P a g e 3 | 3

7. Period of Performance The system shall be ready to be delivered within 90 days of contract award.
