Notice of Intent to Sole Source

Purchase of the LMP-3000 Halocarbon Monitor,  used for sampling and measuring tracer gases of filtration systems that utilize carbon filters. The instrument contains an electron capture gas chromatograph that utilizes the high electron affinity of gases or vapors with halogen group elements to provide a measurable signal and report the concentrations on a digital display. Our specific application is for the in-place filter certification testing of carbon filters and their filter banks for mechanical leakage. Our application requires a specific tracer gas, Vertrel XF, to be used. This instrument is the only portable model available to meet this requirement, which requires a conversion to be compatible with the tracer gas Vertrel XF. This instrument also allows for sampling of both upstream and downstream samples, whereas other commercial models require separate systems for upstream and downstream sampling. The item to be purchased is one (1) LMP-3000 Halocarbon monitor. This instrument includes a shipping case with the purchase.System Requirements:
1.) The required instrument is the LMP-3000 Halocarbon Monitor.
2.) The LMP-3000 Halocarbon Monitor must undergo the special conversion to be compatible with the tracer gas Vertrel XF.
3.) The total quantity for purchase is one (1).
