The U.S. Army Test, Measurement, and Diagnostic Equipment (TMDE) Activity is seeking to procure two high resolution electronic autocollimators for the Army Primary Standards Laboratory (APSL). - Government Buyer: - U.S. Army TMDE Activity, under the Army Contracting Command-Redstone, Space, Missile Defense & Special Programs Directorate - Primary contacts: Portia R. Sampson and Matthew Watts - OEMs and Vendors: - ELCOMAT (Model 229 923 ELCOMAT HR) is the only OEM explicitly referenced - Likely manufactured by Möller-Wedel Optical GmbH - Products/Services Requested: - Two (2) Electronic Autocollimators, Model 229 923 ELCOMAT HR or equivalent - Dual axis measurement - Fully automatic, software-controlled operation - Resolution: 0.005 arcseconds - Absolute accuracy: ±0.01 arcseconds over any 10 arcsecond range, ±0.03 arcseconds over total measuring range - Measuring range: ±150 arcseconds - Acquisition range: ±600 arcseconds - Control/display unit: CModul HR - RS 232/USB interface, software interface INCOLINK - AC-viewfinder prism - DAkkS (ISO 17025) accredited calibration - Unique/Notable Requirements: - Brand name or equivalent requirement for ELCOMAT HR - ISO 17025 accredited calibration is mandatory - Delivery required within 30 days after order - Equipment will be used for precise calibration of angular gage blocks, optical prisms, polygons, and wedges to improve measurement accuracy and uncertainty ratios

Description

The U.S. Army TMDE Activity (USATA) has a requirement to procure a brand name purchase of two (2) Electronic Autocollimator that will be used for angle measurements parameter for the calibration of angular gage blocks, optical prisms, optical polygons, and optical wedges. The increased accuracy will eventually allow the APSL to lower its measurement uncertainties for angular calibrations and provide a better Test to Uncertainty ratio for the secondary reference labs. The autocollimators must have an accuracy better than 0.05 arcseconds with a resolution of less than 0.01 arcseconds, and a measurement range greater than ±100 arcseconds. They must also have dual axis measurement capability, have a relatively small footprint: approximately no larger than 12in by 8in, and an ISO 17025 accredited calibration. This item shall be delivered to the Army Primary Standards Laboratory (APSL), Building 5435 Fowler Road, Redstone Arsenal, AL. The Electronic Autocollimator shall include the following specifications or equivalent (if not brand name):

Model 229 923 ELCOMAT HR Qty:2 High Resolution Electronic Autocollimator - Dual axis - Fully automatic, software-controlled operations - Resolution: 0.005 arcsec - Absolute accuracy: ±0.01 arcsec over any 10 arcsec range ±0.03 arcsec over total measuring range - Measuring range: +/- 150 arcsec - acquisition range: +/- 600 arcsec - control-/display unit CModul HR - Interface RS 232/USB - software interface INCOLINK - AC-viewfinder prism - DAkkS Calibration
