Sources Sought for SEL-2440

Notice of intent to use a brand name product.  The Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command, Pacific (NAVFAC Pacific) is performing a market survey to determine if other potential sources of supply can provide a transformer protection relay that has equal performance requirements as the SEL-2440, manufactured by Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories (SEL), 2350 NE Hopkins Court, Pullman, WA 99163.

Fiscal Year 2027 SIOP PROJECT P-8026 ELECTRICAL BACKBONE Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard and IMF Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii, requires transformer protection relay that has equal performance requirements as the SEL-587Z.

Provide discrete programmable automation controller with the following capabilities:

• Distributed Automation and Control – Provide a discrete programmable automation controller to perform high-speed monitoring, control, and automation of substation equipment using configurable logic, distributed input/output (I/O), and communications capabilities. Support bay control, equipment interlocking, alarm processing, and local automation functions.
• Discrete Input/Output – Provide configurable digital inputs and outputs for monitoring equipment status, controlling circuit breakers, disconnect switches, alarms, and auxiliary equipment. Support high-speed input processing and output operation for critical control applications.
• Communications and System Integration – Support integration with protective relays, SCADA systems, real-time automation controllers (RTACs), and intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) using industry-standard communications protocols as required.
• Reporting and Monitoring – Provide Sequential Events Recorder (SER), event logging, alarm indication, and diagnostic capabilities to document equipment status changes, control operations, and system events for post-event analysis and maintenance.
• Substation Integration – Support distributed automation architectures through programmable logic, time-synchronized event recording, and Ethernet and serial communications, enabling reliable coordination of protection, control, monitoring, and SCADA functions throughout the substation.
