The monitor must be compatible with the existing ChemDAQ monitoring system and provide twenty-four-hour continuous monitoring. The contractor must also provide system commissioning with in-service training for SPS staff. The contract is a 100% Total Small Business set-aside, and the NAICS code for the solicitation is 339112. The following are the key features of the required monitor: • Must be able to provide upgraded monitors and sensors for sensor calibration and exchange for the currently installed and in-use ChemDAQ monitoring system. • Must be 100% compatible with the already installed and in-use ChemDAQ monitoring system. • Must supply the facility with a sensor exchange program that provides calibrated sensors every 4 months (three times a year) for 1 Peracetic Acid Sensor and 2 Hydrogen Peroxide Sensors. • Sensors must be calibrated to targeted gases. • Must be able to provide Peracetic Acid as well as Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) monitors and sensors. • Peracetic Acid and Hydrogen Peroxide sensors must provide twenty-four-hour continuous monitoring. • Vendor will upgrade the current system and provide onsite in-service training for SPS staff. • Area monitors that continuously track and display all time-weighted average (TWA) exposure within respect to the OSHA limits: Action Level (AL), Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL), and Excursion Limit (EL). • Area monitors must be able to continuously track and display early warning alarms/alerts. • Area monitors must allow for customizable low and high-level alarms. • Area Monitors that are independent from each other, operating under their own power, with a built-in battery backup, thus eliminating the possibility of total system failure. • Area monitors must provide a display of instantaneous, 15-minute TWA, 8-hour TWA, and activate alarms at the point of measurement to provide the best protection to personnel in the event of a leak.
