Summary (Newest Update)

Background NASA/NSSC has a requirement for a Multi-Shot Pyrolyzer, which is essential for the Astrobiology Analytical Laboratory (AAL) at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. The AAL utilizes advanced analytical instruments to study organic compounds in various samples, including extraterrestrial materials and laboratory analogs. The acquisition of this pyrolyzer will enhance capabilities for analyzing trace organic species, directly supporting NASA's mission to understand the origins of life and the primordial inventories of volatile elements in the solar system. NASA intends to issue a sole source contract to Thermo Electron North America LLC, as they are the only provider of this specific equipment. Work Details The contract involves the delivery and installation of a Multi-Shot Pyrolyzer system with the following specifications: 1) Built-in analytical trap that supports Multi-Shot Pyrolyzer (EGA/PY-3030D) for AC110V. 2) Temperature control calibrated and programmable from ambient to 900°C with ± 0.1°C accuracy. 3) Compatibility with standard split/splitless injection port module (no Helium Saver Option). 4) MicroJet Cryo-Trap (MJT-2030E) for Thermo TRACE GC Ultra, including necessary mass spectrometer connector. 5) Installation services included. 6) Familiarization training for potential users required. 7) One-year warranty on the system. 8) Vendor must have recognized expertise in pyroprobe pyrolyzer design and history of instrument support. Period of Performance Start: June 30, 2026; End: July 31, 2026 Place of Performance Astrobiology Analytical Laboratory at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. Bidder Requirements The vendor must have nationally recognized expertise with pyroprobe pyrolyzer design and an established history of instrument support and service. Additionally, the vendor's instruments must be compatible with those currently used in the AAL.
