NASA Langley Research Center is seeking to acquire Kulite Pressure Scanners (or equivalent) to replace outdated hardware for accurate pressure measurements significant in engineering and computational fluid dynamics assessments. The purchase includes two models, each featuring multiple pressure channels (16 to 64), and specific design criteria such as compact size and thermal compensation for temperatures ranging from 0 to 130°F. Additionally, the scanners must tolerate vibration, deliver high accuracy (±0.2% or better), and support various pressure ranges.
Accompanying software requirements include compatibility with modern programming languages like LabVIEW or MATLAB, an auto-zero function, and the ability to timestamp data collection. The manufacturers should demonstrate continued support for their products, with quick operational setup and routine calibration capabilities, preferably aligning with Mensor standards. The project aims for completion within 8-10 weeks following the contract award, emphasizing the urgency and technological necessity for efficient data acquisition systems at NASA Langley.
