- App_122 Attachment App_122 Attachment App_122 Attachment App_122 Attachment Draft Statement of Work Draft Specification Expression of Interest for Turn Key Liquid Helium Refrigeration/Liquefaction System Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC (BSA) is seeking expressions of interest from manufacturers regarding the production of a turn key Liquid Helium Refrigeration/Liquefaction System, which will be located at Brookhaven National Laboratory ( BNL), Upton, NY 11973. BSA, under Contract DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for the operation of BNL, is designing and constructing a new synchrotron radiation light source, hereinafter referred to as National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II), The NSLS-II project includes the design, construction, installation, and commissioning of accelerator hardware, civil construction, and central facilities required to produce a new synchrotron light source. The project includes a highly optimized 3GeV electron storage ring, full-energy injector, experimental beam lines and optics, and appropriate support equipment. The NSLS II RF cavity installation will be similar to the Canadian Light Source, Diamond Light Source, Shanghai Light Source and Beijing Electron Position Collider with the difference being the NSLS II System is a larger installation with 6 superconducting cavities and require upwards of 900 Watts of LHe capacity, additional information is provided below, specific requirements are provided in the attached specification. General Manufacturing/Testing/Installation Description The storage ring will contain two superconducting (SC) Radio Frequency (RF) sections that will replace the energy the electrons lose during their circulation. These two SC RF sections will require cooling by liquid Helium supplied from an independent cryogenic system. The cryogenic system shall be capable to provide the liquid Helium flow rate up to 300 liters/hour and handle the heat load of ~900 W. The superconducting cavities require extremely tight control of the pressure variations within +/- 1.5 mBar during delivery of the liquid Helium to the cavity helium tanks. A complete Turn Key liquid Helium Refrigeration/Liquefaction System that shall include, but not be limited to, the following major components: •§ Complete system design and analysis required to show system meets specification •§ The turbine-based cold box and LHe Dewar •§ Water cooled Compressors with oil removal and dryer systems •§ Air cooled Backup compressor •§ Gaseous Helium storage tanks •§ Valve boxes, liquid Helium and liquid Nitrogen transfer lines and cold and warm gaseous Helium piping between the system components •§ Gaseous Helium purity analyzer •§ EPICS-based control system and related instrumentation The current preference is for the supplier to produce the entire Helium system, including the cold box, dewar, compressors, valve boxes, warm helium storage and interconnecting warm and cold transfer lines. Standards Upon issuance of the formal Request for Proposal (RFP) and In accordance with the applicable specifications, referenced documents, and envelope drawings as defined in the Statement Of Work, the Contractor shall design, manufacture, deliver, install, test and commission the liquid Helium Refrigeration/Liquefaction System. All design and manufacturing will be in compliance with the DOE directive 10CFR851, in particular the requirement to be in compliance with AMSE pressure vessel and piping design and manufacture. The RFP is expected in summer 2010. We are interested in comments and suggestions to improve the systems and will carefully review all suggestions for inclusion into the specification and Statement of Work (SOW), additionally interested parties should include a budgetary quotation and schedule. If your firm is interested in this project and possesses the resources for a project of this scope, please provide a response to Janet Schlock, Sr. Contract Specialist, at schlock@bnl.gov by 5:00PM Eastern Daylight Time on or before February 15, 2010.
