Petroleum Quality Analysis System - Enhanced (PQAS-E) Analytical Lab Equipment Upgrades

The U.S. Army is conducting market research (Sources Sought) to identify a single vendor capable of supplying replacement analytical instrumentation for the Petroleum Quality Analysis System‑Enhanced (PQAS‑E) used by the 209th Aviation Support Battalion, 25th Combat Aviation Brigade. The requirement includes three specific subsystems: the OptiMPP Mini Pour Point Analyzer, the SLFA‑60MI X‑Ray Fluorescence Sulfur Analyzer, and the PQAS‑T7 Automated Titration System, together with all accessories, installation, calibration, verification, and operator familiarization services. Vendors must confirm whether they can provide the complete set of equipment and support; if not, they must detail which items they can furnish. The equipment must fit within existing shelter dimensions, power constraints, and integrate with current data acquisition systems at Wheeler Army Airfield, Hawaii. Key technical standards include ASTM D7346, D7689, D4294, MIL‑STD‑3004C, and ISO‑17025. • Replace three analytical subsystems (pour point, sulfur, titration) for aviation fuel quality testing. • Must meet ASTM and MIL‑STD performance criteria and operate within specified temperature/humidity ranges. • Includes full delivery, installation, calibration, and one‑year warranty plus annual preventative‑maintenance package. • Equipment must be compatible with existing PQAS‑E lab infrastructure and power supplies (100‑240 V, 50/60 Hz). • Vendor must state ability to supply the entire solution or specify partial capability.
