- Description
- The National Weather Service (NWS) Radar Operations Center (ROC) has a requirement to�procure 50 optical encoders to replenish logistics spares, which are used in the Weather�Surveillance Radar 1988 Doppler (WSR-88D). The ROC supports the Next Generator Weather�Radar (NEXRAD) program, which is a network of 160 high-resolution S-Band Doppler weather�radars jointly operated by the NWS, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and the United�States Air Force known as the Tri-Agency. The NEXRAD program provides the NWS with the�ability to accurately detect, analyze, and forecast weather events in support of local warning and�forecast and safety of flight operations overseen by the Tri-Agency. The NEXRAD program�provides essential data needed to achieve Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic and�Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and NWS objectives and goals. NEXRAD data underpins�NWS forecast/warning services-critical for meeting WeatherReady Nation goal to protect life and�property, and reduce disruption from high-impact weather events. The continuous availability of�stock is a critical element supporting the NWS mission. The optical encoders National Stock Number (NSN) 7050-01-388-0992, Agency Stock Number�(ASN) Reference Identification R400-2A1A1A2A1 are used within the NEXRAD Radar. The�associated equipment Source Control Document part number is 14636-5017 has been provided�within this document to be referenced for manufacturing. Additionally, the information included within this document are to be�considered to be the minimum technical requirements that optical encoders must meet to be used�in the NWS ROC WSR-88D.
