The US Air Force Petroleum Office (AFPET) seeks proposals for an Integrated Cryogenic Liquid Sampling and Gas Analysis System to ensure the quality testing of Aviator Breathing Oxygen (ABO) and Compressed Breathing Air (CBA). The Statement of Work outlines the scope, specifying required components such as a sampling system, sample vessels, analyzers, and training. Key specifications include adherence to Department of Defense standards, ASTM practices for cleanliness, and careful material selection to prevent contamination. The system must be portable, capable of accurately sampling and analyzing gaseous samples for contaminants following specific threshold limits. It stipulates rigorous testing protocols for pressure integrity, mechanical functionality, and cleanliness assurance. Additionally, the gas analysis system must integrate advanced technology for moisture and contaminant detection, operating in a lab environment with automated functionality. The proposal must include installation services, support options, and a two-year warranty on delivered items. Delivery is expected within 120 days to multiple specified locations. This initiative is essential for maintaining the safety and reliability of air force operations related to critical breathing apparatus.
