Fermilab PIP-II cryogenic rupture disks and burst-alert sensors

Fermilab is seeking proposals for cryogenic rupture disks and burst-alert sensors to protect PIP-II CM 2K helium volumes from overpressure. - Government buyer: U.S. Department of Energy; Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL/Fermilab), PIP-II Cryogenic Distribution System; Procurement Department, managed by Fermi Forward Discovery Group, LLC (also identified as FermiForward and FFDG). - OEMs and vendors: No rupture-disk or sensor manufacturer is named. Fermi Forward Discovery Group, LLC is identified as Fermilab’s management organization and subcontractor-certification provider, not as the product OEM. - Products requested: - 30 RD-nn21 cryogenic rupture disk cartridges (nn = 02–25), set pressure 3.1 barg. - 3 RD-0121 cryogenic rupture disk cartridges, set pressure 1.75 barg. - 33 burst-alert sensors. - Notable technical requirements: Welded Inconel construction for helium service; 4-inch connections; ASME Section VIII/National Board certification; full-vacuum capability; helium leak rate no greater than 10⁻⁸ atm-cc/sec; normally closed, two-lead burst-alert sensors; and external handling and centering accessories. The two disk configurations have different relieving temperatures, flow requirements, and expected orifice diameters; detailed requirements are in specification ED0049129. - Supplier information: The attachments also include FermiForward’s annual subcontractor representations and certifications form. It is a supplier qualification form, not a product purchase. - Period of performance: Not specified; delivery schedule is to be provided with the proposal.
