About this file
This is a procurement quotation solicitation issued by the City of Carmel Fire Department in Hamilton County, Indiana, for the purchase of one handheld Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) system designated as the XplorIR. The requested equipment must include the Quantification Package, which enables identification of over 5,600 chemical threats and quantification of nearly 5,000 gases at parts-per-million levels without user calibration. The device specifications include a weight of 5.5 pounds, dimensions of 12.5" x 6.5" x 5.75", operating temperature range of 0 to 50 degrees Celsius, identification results delivered in less than 30 seconds, a 6-hour battery life, GPS and WiFi connectivity, and IP 54 dust and water resistance rating. Sealed quotes must be submitted electronically through the City's e-Procurement Portal at https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/carmelin no later than 11:59 p.m. local time on Thursday, April 23, 2026, with a question submission deadline of 12:00 a.m. on Monday, April 20, 2026. The successful quoter must execute all necessary contract documents within five days of award notification.
The quotation must include one year of warranty and support with a loaner device provision and one on-site training class accommodating up to 10 students maximum. Award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible offeror, and all submitted quotes remain valid and irrevocable for 60 days following the submission deadline. No set-aside restrictions or incumbent vendors are identified in the solicitation. All prospective quoters must register as vendors with the City's Finance Department and provide E-Verify documentation, including a screenshot of the business MOU E-Verify webpage, along with completed E-Verify and Non-Collusion affidavits, in compliance with Indiana E-Verify requirements. The City of Carmel is exempt from federal excise tax and sales tax. No specific budget range or award value is disclosed in the procurement documentation. All submitted documentation becomes property of the City and constitutes a public record unless specifically marked as confidential. The City reserves the right to reject all quotes, cancel the solicitation, or waive any immaterial defects or informalities.

It’s one thing to know if a hazardous gas or vapor is present at an incident, and another to know what the product is. But what if you could also know how much of the hazard exists in the atmosphere? That requires quantification, and the
XplorIR® now provides this critical piece of information.
The XplorIR, based on Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, can identify over 5,600 gases/vapors with extreme selectivity within seconds. With the new quantification package, the XplorIR can now quantify nearly 5,000 gases/vapors at parts-per-million (ppm) levels. This is done without any calibration required.
FTIR measurements are inherently quantitative, and the spectral response is linear with respect to product concentration. Using a reference library based on known chemical concentrations, the XplorIR can determine the ppm of a product captured within its 2-meter gas cell and report that concentration along with the product identity.
Once the concentration is known, it can easily be compared to the Immediately
Dangerous to Life and Health (ILDH) level of the product within the XplorIR software.
This allows you to make rapid tactical decisions about remediation and decon with just a few button clicks.
Going further, the XplorIR uses a proprietary, automated process which combines molecular functional groups with measured spectra to estimate quantitative data for nearly all library entries. This extends the quantitative capabilities from a few hundred compounds to several thousand. With its ability to identify and quantify up to 6 mixture components at one time, the XplorIR is a game-changer for chemical response scenarios such as clandestine labs and other situations involving complex gas and vapor environments.
