    The Naval Sea Systems Command, Naval Surface Warfare Center, Panama City Division (NSWC PCD) is issuing a brand name justification to acquire 8 gallons of Halocarbon 27S oil. This oil is essential for the oil change of NEDU's divers mixed gas transfer compressor and is a critical component for specialized life support systems in the Ocean Simulation Facility (OSF). NAVSEA 00C has approved and directed the exclusive use of Halocarbon oils due to their successful testing and qualification under U.S. Navy Diving and Manned Hyperbaric Certification Manual procedures.
