- Description
- NASA/MSFC has a requirement for one Open Air Accelerator with the following specifications. Technical: ?Primary beam to be singly ionized H+ ?Proton Energy Range: minimum range from 10 KeV to 100 KeV with delta E 50 eV. ?Ion mass analysis capability, either ExB velocity selector or analysis magnet ?Beam current density range; 1E8 to 5E11 protons/sq.cm/s ?Air-cooled RF ion source. Include personnel safety and EMI shielding as required. The air-cooled RF ion source should produce microamp current at the source. The air-cooled ion source should include: end and base flanges, insulated tie rods, fan cooled RF shield box, permanent ion source magnets, RF oscillator, oscillator power supply, probe power supply, bias isolation power supply, metering valve(s), 500 cc volume gas supply cylinder equipped with shut-off valve, spare parts to include: two ion source bottles, three extractor canals and two insulating washers. ?Extractor Gap-Einzel lens acceleration tube to increase beam energy to a value suitable for injection into the acceleration tube. ?Scanned, or diverged, beam coverage area of 8 inch diameter, or larger with coverage uniformity of 97%, or better, on target. Minimum separation distance between gun and target is 4 feet. Maximum separation distance is TBD. ?Control function switchable between computer and analog controller ?All mating flanges to be Conflat-design, no larger than 8? OD. System: ?Projected maintenance interval to be not less than 1000 hours of operating time. ?Non-restricted mounting orientation ?Small ?footprint? is desired. System should be as compact as practicable. ?Support (ancillary) hardware includes but is not limited to: - Vacuum gage and controller - Ion pump or cryo pump and controller - Dry ?scroll-pump? roughing - Beam line support system, if required - Faraday Cup, controller and readout. - All required power supplies and cables. ?Remote operation (Approximately 100 feet) ?All required system cables and connectors. General: ?6 month delivery from time of award ?Installation and training at customer site ?Maintenance kit (spare parts, special tools, etc). ?Operating and service manuals, and drawings, parts list and wiring diagrams/lists (2 copies) ?System installation drawings This notice is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation, which is issued as a Request for Quotation (RFQ); quotes are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued.
