- Description
- The U.S. Geological Survey has a requirement for a contract allowing USGS Science Centers to place orders, AS NEEDED, for small portable seismometers (with the specific characteristics defined below) suitable for H/V seismic ratio (HVSR) investigations for a period of 1 year starting on the date of contract issuance. There must be 2 model choices of seismometers. Minimum Technical Specifications: MODEL 1Portable Low Frequency seismometer that can record 3 components of seismic motions suitable for H/V spectral analysis and estimation of depth to bedrock using measurements of ambient seismic noise, to include data download analysis software, per attached list of MINIMUM TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS (Included Below) - Triaxial seismometer capable of recording three components of motion in the micro-tremor ( 1 mm/sec) amplitude ranges- Capable of passive (ambient-noise) recording - Portable- Built in digitizer and control unit with minimum of I GB data storage - USB cable for data transfer to PC- Minimum frequency response: 0.1-256 Hz- Sampling rate: minimum range of 128 to 512 samples per second- Battery powered- Three copies of software capable ofo data downloado spectral and directional analysiso HI/V analysis MODEL 2 Portable Low Frequency seismometer that can record 3 components of seismic motions suitable for H/V spectral analysis and estimation of depth to bedrock using measurements of ambient seismic noise and capable of interfacing with an external geophone and active trigger source suitable for estimation of subsurface velocity structure using seismic refraction, SASW and MASW techniques; to include data download and analysis software, per list of MINIMAL TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS (Included Below). - Triaxial seismometer capable of recording three components of motion in both the micro-tremor ( 1 mm/sec) and earthquake strong-motion ( 45 m/sec) amplitude ranges- Capable of passive (ambient-noise) recording and active recording with a triggered source- Ability to record data from a minimum of 1 external geophone- Portable- Built in digitizer and control unit with minimum of 1 GB data storage- USB cable for data transfer to PC- Minimum frequency response: 0.1-256 Hz- Sampling rate: minimum range of 128 to 1024 samples per second- Internal GPS module- Internal wireless transmitter/receiver for multi-unit synchronization- External trigger cable with a minimum length of 50 meters- Option for external 4.5-Hz geophone with cable- Battery powered- Three copies software capable of o data downloado spectral and directional analysiso H/V analysiso seismic refraction, SASW and MASW forward modeling and analysis RFQ 10ERQQ0179 will be issued on or about 02/18/2010 with written quotes due on or about 02/24/2010. The NAICS code is 334516. The anticipated award date of the contract is 03/01/2010. A vendor must be registered at http://www.ccr.gov to be awarded the contract. All responsible sources may submit a bid or quotation which shall be considered by the agency. FAX response to 703.648.7367 or email to: xxxxx@usgs.gov.
