AI Contract Overview
The U.S. Army TMDE Activity is procuring one Model 1056A-200 Ratemeter Digital Geiger-Mueller system and one Model 897A-210 Geiger-Mueller Detector System for use at the Army Primary Standards Laboratory at Redstone Arsenal, Alabama. Both systems require a range of five decades from 10² to 10⁵ mR/h, an energy response within 15 percent from 80 keV to 1.5 MeV, an integral analog preamplifier, and a single cable connection between detector and ratemeter. The ratemeters must operate without external power at the detector location and support remote placement up to 2000 feet for the Model 1056A-200 and up to 1700 feet for the Model 897A-210. Both units include an 8 µCi 36Cl check source, are seismically qualified, and designed for a life expectancy of approximately 10⁵ rads. The Model 1056A-200 features a wallmount IP65-rated enclosure with an LCD graphical display, while the Model 897A-210 is specifically compatible with the 955A GM Area Monitor and draws all power from the ratemeter. All equipment must be delivered to Building 5435, Fowler Road, Redstone Arsenal, AL 35898, under solicitation PANRSA-26-P-0000-035924, with responses due by July 16, 2026. Point of contact for inquiries is Portia Sampson, with secondary support from LaToya Whitsett.
