Cabin Pressure Tester Set

This federal government document is a Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition (Brand Name) issued by the National Guard Bureau on behalf of the 138th Fighter Wing (138FW/138 MXG). The purpose of the justification is to authorize the procurement of a Tronair 15-7609-6000-FJ Cabin Pressure Test Set and a Nano purification separator under a firm-fixed-price contract funded by Air Force Operations and Maintenance (O&M) appropriations. The Tronair test set is required to perform critical cockpit seat cabin pressurization testing on F-16 aircraft. According to the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, the Tronair system is the only approved equipment capable of conducting these specific cabin pressurization tests. It must be paired with the Nano purification hardware when an oil-free hangar air source is unavailable. Although restricted to these specific brand-name items, the requirement will be competed to maximize competition among authorized distributors. Market research indicates that while Tronair and Nano are the sole manufacturers, multiple third-party sources are available to fulfill the procurement, satisfying the brand-name limitation requirements under FAR 6.302-1.
