Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) has a requirement for the supply of three (3) different and separate emission measurement systems, whereby each system must individually meet all of the mandatory technical requirements as specified below. Bidders are free to bid on one (1), two (2) or all three (3) systems and may apply grouping discounts to multi-system bids. The three systems are as follows:
System 1: Portable Emission Measurement System and Parts
Environment and Climate Change Canada’s (ECCC) Emissions Research and Measurement Section have the requirement under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act for the supply, commissioning, training, and manuals for one (1) Portable Emissions Measurement System (PEMS) including associated accessories to enable exhaust emission measurements of vehicles during real-world operation. This comprehensive system shall be composed of specialized analyzers to measure the pollutants listed below, a high speed exhaust flow meter, data acquisition, analysis, and reporting system, power control components, all designed to operate under the rigors of a real world test environment. As this testing is being performed to support the regulatory commitments of CEPA it is paramount that the instrumentation meets technical and reliability requirements and whose results are accepted by industry.
System 2: Exhaust Flow Measurement System for Large Displacement Engines
Environment and Climate Change Canada’s (ECCC) Emissions Research and Measurement Section have the requirement under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act for the supply, commissioning, training, and manuals for one (1) stand-alone exhaust flow measurement system that would be used to accurately measure the volumetric and mass flow rate of raw exhaust from large displacement engines. The instrument must be designed to connect to exhaust of a vehicle and include data acquisition software to measure, and record the volumetric and mass exhaust gas flow rate. Instrument reliability and accuracy are imperative because the instrument will be used for:
a) Emissions testing to support regulatory commitments of CEPA;
b) Providing flow measurements for other exhaust speciation equipment at ERMS;
c) Validating and comparing exhaust flow between PEMS systems
System 3: Real-Time Portable Soot Sensor
Environment and Climate Change Canada’s (ECCC) Emissions Research and Measurement Section (ERMS) have the requirement under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act for the supply, commissioning, training, and manuals for one (1) portable emissions measurement system that would be used to measure the raw soot and particulate matter mass concentration from raw vehicle exhaust. The instrument must be designed to connect to exhaust of a vehicle and include data acquisition software to measure and record the mass concentration of particles according to the principles outlined in the US EPA Code of Federal Regulations Title 40, Chapter I, Subchapter U, Part §1065.915. Instrument reliability and accuracy are imperative because the instrument will be used for:
a) Emissions testing to support regulatory commitments of CEPA;
b) Validating and comparing particulate matter measurements between PEMS systems, field equipment, and test cells;
c) Measuring particulate matter from vehicles to support ERMS research activities in a variety of combustion industry settings including on-road and off-road heavy-duty engines, advanced light-duty vehicles, and marine vessels
