59 -- AN/UDR-13 POCKET RADIAC (PR) DUE 063098 POC Point of Contact -- Ted Do, 732-427-5994; Charles A. Kaiser, 732-427-5996, AMSEL-RD-NV-S/CCD-RD E-MAIL: AN/UDR-13 Pocket Radiac (PR), MATEJKA@doim6.monmouth.army.mil. The U.S. Army Communications Electronics Command (CECOM) is conducting a market investigation to seek companies with the interest/ability to perform the production deployment phase of the PR. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. The PR is a compact, lightweight unit that is capable of detecting, measuring, and displaying total dose of prompt initial neutron and gamma radiation from nuclear detonations plus the dose-rate and total dose from residual gamma radiation. The total dose is measured by the dedicated dosimeter of the PR and is displayed in dose units from 1 to 999 cGy. The dosimeter electronics of the device is resettable to evaluate a mission dose as required. The total accumulated dose is measurable to 999 cGy with an overrange capability to 2000 cGy. The gamma dose rate detection and measurement mission is accomplished by the ratemeter portion of the PR for gamma radiation in the range from 0.1 to 999 cGy/hr. The PR uses microprocessor technology and on-board memory to provide flexibility andfeatures such as a self-test mode, visual and audible alarms, and hands-off operation. The PR uses four (4) 1.5V AAA Alkaline batteries that last a minimum of 40 hours under continuous use. A SLEEP MODE with automatic wakeup is included to conserve battery power. Data readout and warning/mode messages are provided by liquid crystal display and via an RSA-=232 data port. The PR production contract will be solicited as a full and open competitive bid, five (5) year multi-year, firm fixed price (FFP) contract. Members of the industrial community who desire a copy of the ROC, and/or General Requirements for review should provide a written request to the above contact point. Any desired response to the offering must be made at no cost to the Government. A response to this market survey should be received NLT 30 Jun 98. (0056)
