The NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Centers require sole source or brand name abrasive separator kits (N62758-5295-7604 and N62758-5295-7605 / ABRASIVE SEPARATOR KIT / 6962398-65). This is due to the kits being direct replacement parts for existing compressors and necessary for the pre-installation repair of a centralized seawater cooling pump unit. The requirement specifies that these items are the minimum needed by the government, indicating a critical need for compatibility and functionality with existing systems. Competition is precluded because these are proprietary direct replacement parts for existing equipment.
