CHIPS R&D Beamline Residual Gas Analyzer – Combined Sources Sought/Notice of Intent to Sole Source

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking information from sources that may be capable of providing a high-speed, Lock-in/Servo system for a Beamline Residual Gas Analyzer. The analyzer must meet or exceed the minimum specifications, including compatibility with ultra-high vacuum systems, a mass range from 1 amu to 200 amu, and dual Faraday and Electron Multiplier detection. The system will be used to analyze the residual gas composition and quantify the amount of high molecular mass species in the beamlines at NIST's SURF III synchrotron radiation facility. * The system must be compatible with ultra-high vacuum systems * The system must have a mass range from 1 amu to 200 amu * The system must have dual Faraday and Electron Multiplier detection * The system must have a Thoria filament * The system must have Ethernet communications with a computer * The system must have contractor-provided software for operation, parameter adjustment, calibration, data display, and saving data to disk compatible with Windows operating system.
