- Description
- Solicitation N00421-09-T-0098 is issued as a request for quote (RFQ). This action is not set aside for small businesses. The Government intends to purchase on a firm fixed price basis and to solicit and negotiate the proposed purchase order. The contract line item numbers and descriptions are Clin 0001, 1 each, Video Borescope System that is highly survivable and portable for the maintenance of Navy aircraft engines and airframe components on land and on-board Aircraft Carriers. The Video Borescope System shall meet the parameters set forth below: The video borescope shall incorporate a full set of features and functions including stereo measuring for damage assessments. Must be simple to operate and capable of operation in harsh environments as well as be durable to withstand harsh handling. Base Unit Shall be a sealed body construction for survivability in harsh environments. Shall contain no lamps, which may require cooling fans that ventilate to the atmosphere. Weight The video borescope system shall weigh less than 16 lbs. completely assembled with battery installed. Survivability The video borescope system shall, in its operational state, meet the following Mil-Std-810F tests: 1. Explosive Atmosphere, Method 511.4, Procedure I 2. Blowing Rain, Method 506.4, Procedure I 3. Sand and Dust, Method 510.4, Procedure I 4. Salt Fog, Method 509.4 5. Humidity, Method 507.4 6. Vibration, Method 514.5, Procedure I 7. Shock, Method 516.5, Procedure IV Operating Temperature The operating temperature of the video borescope insertion tube shall be 0ºF to 212ºF The operating temperature of the video borescope main body shall be -4°F to 120°F. Hi-temperature warning system Because video borescopes can be damaged by inserting them into hot engines: The video borescope system shall incorporate a Hi-temperature warning system, which at a minimum shall provide the following functions for high temperature warning: 1. Shall display a Hi-temperature warning indicator on the screen as the temperature rises above180ºF. 2. Shall display a second Hi-temperature warning indicator on the screen as the temperature reaches 212ºF. 3. Shall additionally display a Hi-temperature warning message on the screen at 212ºF to prompt the user to remove the scope from the hot engine averting damage to the insertion tube. 4. Shall additionally sound and an audible alert at 212ºF to provide redundant warning. Battery operation The video borescope system shall incorporate a rechargeable internal sealed battery. The battery shall provide no less than 2.0 hours of continuous operation on a single charge. The video scope system shall include two batteries. The video borescope system shall include a quick charge, sequential recharger that charges two batteries. The recharger shall be capable of fully recharging a battery in less than 2.0 hours. Insertion tubes The insertion tube shall be 4.0mm in diameter and shall be 2.0 meters in working length. The insertion tubes shall contain no fiber optics for greater reliability. LED illuminated tip adapters The video borescope system shall contain LED’s in the tip adapters so there are no lamps to replace in the system making it more reliable. And, so there are no fibers in the insertion tube making it more reliable. Automatic Recognition Video borescope tip adapters All tip adapters for the video borescope system shall be 4.0mm in diameter and incorporate automatic tip recognition. Which can reduce the possibility of FOD due to tip lose. The system shall include tip adapters with the following optical characteristics: 1. Field of view: 120 degrees, Direction of view: Forward, Depth of field: 4mm to 190mm. 2. Field of view: 120 degrees, Direction of view: Forward, Depth of field: 25mm to Infinity. 3. Field of view: 120 degrees, Direction of view: Side, Depth of field: 6 to Infinity. 4. Field of view: 50/50 degrees, Direction of view: Forward/Forward, Depth of field: 5 to Infinity. 5. Field of view: 50/50 degrees, Direction of view: Side/Side, Depth of field: 4 to Infinity. The video borescope system shall automatically display a message on screen to let a user know if a tip adapter is attached or detached to the scope and which tip by part number it is. The video borescope tip adapters shall be manufactured with a double locking thread attachment feature. The double locking thread attachment in conjunction with automatic tip sensor provides redundant FOD deterrence by displaying a warning message on the video screen. If the tip should come loose it would settle between the two sets of threads while a message on screen would alert the user that the tip is loose thereby allowing the user to extract it safely from the engine. The video borescope shall incorporate an ‘O’ ring seal to prevent infiltration of liquids into tip adapters. Measurement The video borescope system shall provide both stereo and scalar measurement technology and shall allow for in field stereo tip set up. The video borescope system shall provide an on screen dynamic range finder (DRF), with real number read out to assist the user in assessing proper measuring distance. The DRF shall display a ‘real time, real number’ tip to target distance. The DRF is intended to aide the user in determining the best distance for accurate measurements via real time display of real tip to target distance in inches or millimeters. Image storage The video borescope system shall provide three ways to store images: 1. Internal solid-state memory. 2. Removable compact flash memory card. 3. Removable thumb drive memory. Monitor The system monitor shall be a minimum of 6 “, measured diagonally, for easy viewing. It shall be completely removable from the base unit to facilitate field interchangeability. Additionally reducing potential repair costs. Clin 0002, 1 each shipping charges to NAS Patuxent River MD 20670. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. The Government will not pay for any information received. Facsimile proposals are acceptable, email attachments are preferred. This request for quote will close on 17 June 2009. All responses must be received by close of business on 17 June 2009. Award is expected to by 30 June 2009. All questions and concerns must be addressed in writing and sent via email to Donna Giovenco. For information contact Donna Giovenco, Code 2.5.1, telephone 301-757-6530, fax 301-757-8959, email: donna.giovenco@navy.mil
