Gas Analyzers and Peripherals

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration seeks gas analyzers, plant canopy analyzers, mounting kits, cables, and shipping to support fire weather and climate monitoring research. The solicitation requests open path H2O/CO2 analyzers that can accurately measure carbon, water, and energy fluxes. Plant canopy analyzers must non-destructively measure leaf area index and include GPS. Proposals are due by September 1st and will be evaluated based on technical approach and price, with award made to the responsible offeror providing the most advantageous solution.

There is no set-aside designation. The opportunity falls under NAICS code 334516 and PSC code 6510. Requirements include delivery of twelve gas analyzers and three plant canopy analyzers within 60 days to Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Key details specify the gas analyzers must achieve 1% accuracy for CO2 and H2O with low drift, noise, and gain specifications. Plant canopy analyzers require 1.5 million reading memory. The award value was not estimated but will support research in 2023 and ongoing climate monitoring.
