Kulite Semiconductor Pressure Transducers
Kulite Semiconductor Pressure Transducers
NSWCPD intends to procure Pressure Transducers from Kulite Semiconductor Products Inc on a sole source basis. The proposed contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and award with only one source under authority of FAR 13.106(b).
The measurement application requires some semiconductor gases so that the wetted components of the pressure transducers must be made of 316L stainless steel. The statutory authority for this acquisition is 41 USC 3304(a)(1); FAR 13.106-1(b). ***** Sole source determination is based on the need to procure pressure transducers a key component in a new primary standard intended to measure the flow of semiconductor process gasses.
Description: Pressure Transducer - Sensor.The Government intends to negotiate solely with Kulite Semiconductor Products, Inc. under the authorityof FAR Part 13.106-1(b). Kulite Semiconductor Products, Inc. has proprietary rights for this PressureTransducer – Sensor.
Army Combat Capabilities Development Command – Armaments Center (CCDC), intends to issue a non-competitive Request for Proposal (RFP) to Kulite Semiconductor Products (Kulite) for High-Gravity (High-G) Pressure Transducers to support all Munitions Testing in the Precision Munitions Instrumentation (PMI) Division.
It has been determined that Kulite Semiconductor Products Inc is the sole provider of Unstead pressure transducers for ballistic range model instrumentationNASA/NSSC will be the procuring center for this effort.
NASA LaRC intends to purchase customized miniature unsteady pressure transducers from Kulite Semiconductor Products, Inc. The transducers must be interchangeable with previously procured transducers. Custom transducer and amplifier design work from Kulite Semiconductor Products, Inc. is not available from other transducer manufacturers or resellers.
