Description

The USDA, ARS, NWISRL is purchasing a carbon nitrogen analyzer.� We are accepting quotes for equipment that meets all of the following specifications. Instrument must be capable of analyzing carbon and nitrogen via high temperature combustion. System must be able to analyze carbon and nitrogen at the same time and operate in a separate mode where nitrogen is analyzed alone. System must have an integrated position top loading sampler for automated ash removal with 90 sample capacity or greater. Instrument must be capable of analyzing both solid and liquid samples. Sample analysis must be able to analyze up to 1 g of organic sample (e.g., soil) and up to 4mL of aqueous solution (e.g., water) using an open inert stainless steel reusable crucible (5 mL volume to allow sample sizes noted above) that do not require encapsulation of the sample (i.e., sample can be directly weighed into crucible) System must allow both helium (99.995% pure) and argon as a carrier gas and oxygen (99.995% pure) as the combustion gas. No other gases should be required. The footprint must be 30 inches X 30 inches (WxD) or less to fit on available lab benches. Oxygen dosing should be automatically controlled with software to prevent over-dosing. Instrument must be able to operate with a 110/120 VAC standard United States wall outlet. For carbon and nitrogen must be able to detect down to approximately 0.1 mg and for carbon must be able to detect up to 500 mg, for nitrogen must be able to detect up to 200 mg. EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD We will be making a best value decision based not only on price, bout also on technical acceptability of the quotation, past performance evaluations, and compliance with solicitation requirements.
