Fermilab is seeking PIP-II vacuum-gauge and readout equipment, including specified quantities of gauges, controllers, measurement boards, and cables. - Government buyer - Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), a U.S. Department of Energy laboratory. - Procurement is managed by Fermi Forward Discovery Group, LLC (FFDG), Procurement Department. - Requested products - 95 IKR 070 DN40 CF-F triax cold cathode gauges, part number 2000006927 (FNAL FC0151749). - 14 TPG500 Moduline basic units, part number 2000007117 (FNAL FC0158937). - 26 CP 300 T11L Pirani/cold-cathode measurement boards, part number 200007632 (FNAL FC0158938); the description references Amphenol and TPR 010/018 compatibility. - 14 IKR 80C measuring cables, 45 m, part number 2000007935 (FNAL FC0160525). - 95 IKR 80C measuring cables, 3 m, part number 2000007875 (FNAL FC0160524). - Key requirements - Gauges are for PIP-II linac cryomodules and must meet the specified 1 × 10⁻¹¹ to 5 × 10⁻³ mbar measuring range, radiation resistance, temperature limits, compact size, and removable-magnet requirements. - Controllers must read at least two gauges; the specified units can be configured for up to four gauges and provide USB, Ethernet, and RS-485 connectivity. - Measurement boards must support cold-cathode sensors and be compatible with the gauges and controllers. Cables must meet the listed lengths and temperature-resistance requirements. - Equipment requires inspection and testing, ISO 4 cleanroom cleaning, and double-bagged packaging. Delivery is to Batavia, Illinois, with DAP shipping requested. - Named manufacturer/company - Amphenol is referenced in the measurement-board description. The notice does not explicitly identify a manufacturer for the complete equipment package. - Schedule - A six-month lead time is required from purchase-order award.

Description

INTRODUCTION Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab or FNAL), managed and operated by Fermi Forward Discovery Group, LLC (FFDG) under a prime contract with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is seeking to subcontract for work aligned with its mission objectives. The Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II) project is an essential upgrade to Fermilab’s accelerator complex that will support the world’s most intense high-energy neutrino beam for the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment at LBNF, as well as a broad physics program for decades to come. In support of PIP-II, FNAL requires the procurement, assembly, testing, documentation, and delivery of SSRs and LB650 Vacuum Gauge and Readout and associated components in accordance with the requirements specified in Exhibit C – PIP-II SSRs and LB650 Vacuum Gauge and Readout Procurement Specification.
