The procurement process, titled PURCON 1075, falls under the industry category of 'Instruments for checking physical characteristics' and 'Research and experimental development services'. The tender is currently at the 'Tender' stage with a deadline for submissions on January 26, 2023. The location for delivery is in the East of England, United Kingdom. The contract period is scheduled to start on January 31, 2023, and end on January 30, 2025. This tender opportunity presents businesses in the goods industry with the chance to provide an analyser meeting specific requirements for continuous remote operation and accurate detection of Black Carbon. Companies capable of offering solutions within the budget limit of £43k, calibratable in situ, and mountable in a 19'' rack chassis are well-suited to compete. The University of East Anglia is the buying organisation overseeing this open procurement process, providing a clear opportunity for businesses aiming to supply cutting-edge analyser equipment. ## Notice We are looking for an Aerosol Black Carbon Analyser to deploy at a remote atmospheric observatory. To meet our needs, you must be able to demonstrate and consider the following; o The analyser can be operated in a remote location continuously (i.e., 24/7). o The analyser can make measurements of Black Carbon at a frequency of 1 minute (60 seconds). o That the analyser can accurately measure Black Carbon in remote locations with a sensitivity better than 0.1 ug/m3 for a 1-minute measurement. o That the analyser has an hourly limit of detection better than 0.02 ug/m3. o Can discriminate Black Carbon from fossil fuel versus biomass combustion. o Deliver a solution within our maximum allocated budget of ?43k including VAT (budget for proposed analyser only). o Data can be remotely accessed and transferred via local internet. o Can be calibrated in situ without the need to take the instrument out of service. o Mountable in a 19'' rack (6U) chassis.
