Description
DUAL DIGITAL HPGE DETECTOR ACQUISITION SYSTEM

The 96 Contracting Squadron, 96 CONS/MSCB at Eglin AFB, Florida intends to solicit and award a Firm-Fixed Price contract for a Dual Digital HPGe Detector Acquisition System for use in its in-house Positron Characterization project.     This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; a quotation is being requested, and a written request for quotation will not be issued. This solicitation is issued as Request for Quotation (RFQ) F1TBAP8022A003. This is a 100% set-aside for Small Business. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334516, with small business standard size of 500 employees. Please identify your business size in your response based upon this standard. This requirement is for the following.

CLIN 0001: 1 each, Dual Digital HPGe Detector Acquisition System. Minimum Technical Requirements are as follows:

1.       Basic Requirement: A PXI-based Dual Digital HPGe Detector Controller Acquisition System. This system shall be based upon National Instruments PXI bus, pulse digitizer/filtering electronics, including two HV supplies, two preamplifier power supplies, an internal computer, control software, and cabling. The user shall provide Ortec HPGe detectors, preamps, refrigerators, and a National Instruments PXI Chassis, monitor, keyboard, and mouse.

2.       Digitizer Specifications: A multi-channel gamma-ray pulse digitizer is required. The device shall be based on the PXI Bus. The digitizer shall include at least two analog input channels compatible with the output of Ortec HPGE detector preamplifiers and possess a minimum vertical resolution of 14 bit at a sampling rate of at least 75 MHz. Built into the digitizer shall be services to perform coincidence measurements, pile-up rejection, triggering, timing, and digital pulse filtering. Output from the digitizer shall be available to the in-crate PXI computer in list mode. A minimum of 32,000 x 32 bit of on board memory for Multi-Channel Analysis is required for each channel. The digitizer must be capable of preserving the maximum energy resolution of the HPGe detectors through state-of-the art digital processing (i.e. better than 1.6 keV FWHM at 1.33 MeV gamma ray energy). Digital processing/software shall provide a means for performing constant fraction discrimination, as well as gain drift and ballistic deficit corrections to the pulse signals.    

3.       HV Power Supplies: Two high voltage power supplies are required to bias the HPGe detectors. The power supplies shall be built on the PXI platform. The voltage on the power supplies shall be user adjustable and be capable to outputting a maximum voltage of at least 4000 V with a positive bias. An inhibitor input for each supply shall be added to shut off the bias in case of detector/ refrigerator failure. The inhibitor input shall be compatible with the bias shut off output from Ortec HPGE detectors and Cryosecure system.

4.       Preamplifier Power Supplies: Two power supplies are required to drive the preamplifiers built into the Ortec HPGe detectors. The power supplies shall be built on the PXI platform and contain the standard 9-pin D connector for output to the preamplifier.

5.       PXI Computer: A new PXI based computer is required. The processor shall be at least 2.0 GHz and computer shall have at least 2 GBytes of RAM. The computer shall contain an integrated hard drive with a minimum size of 60 GB, and GPIB, USB, serial, Ethernet, and keyboard/monitor/mouse connections. Windows XP OS shall be pre-installed on the computer as well as all necessary control software and drivers. A CD/DVD burner/reader (external USB device is satisfactory) is also required.

6.       Software: GUI-based software is required to control the digitizer and process digitized data. The software shall include a means for displaying a digital oscilloscope for each channel. Configuration control is required through this software to modify sampling, calibration, pre- and post- processing/filtering of the pulse signals, and other data acquisition parameters. Means for exporting the data in either list mode or MCA mode is required.

7.       Vendor will provide all interconnection hoses/cables and power cables required for operation. The length of such hoses and cables must be at least 5 meters in length and shall not exceed 20 meters in length.

8.       Serviceability and Warranty:     Vendor will clearly describe which parts are covered under the standard Warranty, the duration of the standard Warranty.     Vendor is invited to propose as an option an extended Warranty plan which will cover all parts, labor, and travel charges for a limited time period.    

CLIN 0002 (Optional): Installation Option: Vendor is invited to propose as an option on-site installation of the system with preexisting electronics.
