The NAICS code is 334514 and small business size standard is 500 employees. This is for a quantity of 2 each water flow meter per the specifications. Flow Meter Specifications 1. The flow meter shall be capable of measuring level, average velocity and surcharge depth. 2. The method of velocity measurement shall be Doppler radar. 3. The sensor shall combine advanced Doppler Radar velocity sensing technology with ultrasonic pulse echo depth sensing to remotely measure open channel flow. 4. Flow shall be calculated based on the Continuity Equation (Q=V x A), where Q=Flow, V=Average Velocity and A=Area. 5. The range of velocity measurement shall be 0.23 to 6.10 m/s (0.75 to 20 ft/s). 6. The method of depth measurement shall be ultrasonic. 7. The standard operating range for depth measurement shall be 0 to 152.4 cm (0 to 60 in.) with an optional operating range of 0 to 6.1 m (0 to 20 ft.) with 43.18 cm (17 in.) deadband, temperature compensated. 8. The flow meter shall have a surcharge condition velocity sensor option. 9. Exterior dimensions of the sensor shall not exceed 160.5 W x 432.2 L x 297 D mm (6.32 W x 16.66 L x 11.7 D in.) or 160.5 W x 432.2 L x 387 D mm (6.32 W x 16.66 L x 15.2 D in.) with Surcharge Velocity option. 10. The sensor shall be able to measure bi-directional surcharge flow. 11. Optional Intrinsically Safe models available for flow monitoring in hazardous locations. Flow Logger Specifications 1. The operating temperature for the Flow Logger shall be â€"18 to 60ÂºC (0 to 140ÂºF) at 95% relative humidity and storage temperature of â€"40 to 60ÂºC (â€"40 to 140ÂºF). 2. Power requirements of the Flow Logger shall be 8 to18 Vdc from batteries or external power source, 2.5W max. 3. The Flow Logger shall have 1, 2 or 4 sensor ports with IP67 stainless steel connector, 1 communications port and 1 auxiliary port. 4. The Flow Logger shall have primary logging intervals of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30 or 60 minutes. 5. The Flow Logger shall have secondary logging intervals available to modify the logging rate based on a defined channel alarm condition or trigger. 6. The Flow Logger data storage event log shall be 1,000 events maximum in nonvolatile flash memory. 7. Timebase Accuracy of the Flow Logger shall be 0.002% synchronized every 24 hours with server software and modem. 8. The Flow Logger shall be able to connect to a lap top or desk top PC using either USB or FS232 serial connection. 9. The Flow Logger shall have an LED indicator for operating /programming status visible on the topmost horizontal surface of the logger. 10. The internet data management software shall indicate sites in alarm condition in either a map view or list view. 11. When connected to an external power source, the logger shall be capable of power switching, i.e. drawing power from the external source and conserving the alkaline batteries inside the logger base. At the time the external power source reaches a low alarm condition, it will then switch the power draw to the alkaline batteries mounted inside the base of the logger.
