including input voltage of 100–120/220–240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, and 15
A. It may also be powered by 24 VDC C (+/- 5%, 25 A, 600 W) via
external or battery source and provide a fuse protection (30 A
minimum).
GC/MS should preferably provide two non-coated inert electron
ionization (EI) sources for interchangeable ion volumes and to
facilitate rapid change out of ‘dirty source’.

GC/MS must be able to power up, pump down, and reach
appropriate temperature within 30 minutes of startup, as well as be
capable of warm up/pump down during transit.
11.
GC/MS must be ruggedized for mobile applications(outside of a
laboratory), including integrated wire rope isolators. Must have
passed MIL-STD-810G, Method 514.6, Table 514.6C-II Category 4.
12.
The GC/MS system must provide both an integrated split/split-less
standard injector port (SIP) and integrated universal sampling port
(USP) for plug and play samplers. External accessories will not be
accepted.
GC/MS must provide connection for external helium (He) gas cylinder
or Hydrogen (H2) generator.
The GC/MS should not utilize
proprietary carrier gas canisters.

GC/MS software should provide both qualitative and quantitative
sample analysis.
18.
Software should be capable of Sequential Full Scan/SIM acquisitions
to acquire full scan and SIM data in a single injection including
centroid or profile data acquisition with at least 15 samples/amu.
19.
User interface should preferably offer a wizard to guide users through
a step-by-step interactive Q&A, enabling them to select the most
applicable test method for their application.
20.
GC/MS system should operate using system software offering at
least 2 user-interfaces: Operator and Developer.
The GC/MS software must be supplied with both a simplified user
interface and advanced user interface. The simplified user interface
should be able to be learned within 8 hours of instruction and
should include a wizard for assistance in selecting the
appropriate test method. The advanced user interface will provide
the ability to develop custom libraries and methods, as well as provide
advanced programming for the simplified user interface. Both
interfaces will have security level access through password coded
protection.
The system must accept solid, liquid, and vapor samples via a
complete suite of sample introduction tools. The sampling tools
must include options for both prepared and native samples.
The GC/MS must be compatible with a number of optional sample
introduction tools including: manual syringe injections, auto-sampler
injections, manual headspace syringe, solid phase micro extraction
(“SPME”) fibers, air sampling adaptor for 24/7 sampling lines,
handheld vapor sampler, purge and trap accessory, and the Prep-less
Sample Introduction Probe (PSI-Probe). Each sampling method will
be initiated by automated software and/or manual methods.

spectral libraries that include a broad range of chemical targets. These
spectral libraries must include explosives, narcotics, designer drugs,
toxic industrial compounds (TICs), chemical warfare agents (CWAs),
and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and semi-volatile
organic compounds (SVOCs). The system will also allow users to
develop custom libraries and test methods that meet new materials of
interest over time.
