Response Date: May 9, 2008 5:00 p.m. ET
In accordance with FAR 13.106, t he US EPA National Enforcement Investigations Center (NEIC) is announcing its intent to purchase a Tekmar 14-9800-100, Stratum Purge & Trap Sample Concentrator; a Tekmar 14-6689-086 Interface Cable to 6890 and installation of the equipment. The brand name justification is as follows. NEIC currently owns a purge-and-trap/gas chromatograph/mass spectrometer that is used for analysis of volatile organic compounds in support of criminal and civil environmental investigations. Due to contamination from previous project samples, a new concentrator is needed. The equipment must be able to work in concert with the Tekmar auto-sampler already in use at NEIC. Only a Tekmar Stratum Purge & Trap Concentrator allows the auto-sampler to retain the full functionality required for the thorough and efficient analysis of volatile organic compounds.
