This document is a set of Questions and Clarifications related to RFQ 449156 for the NSLS-II SMI Beamline Sample Motions Assembly. The key details are:

The RFQ requires the contractor to provide a new motion system that must mate to legacy electrical vacuum feedthroughs and air-side cabling for the customer's controls system. Specifically, the motor and encoder connectors must use the pinout and configuration defined in Section 7.5, Table 6 of the Specification document, rather than the contractor's standard 9-pin DSUB connectors. This is a mandatory requirement to ensure compatibility with the existing infrastructure. The proposal due date is August 14, 2024. The solicitation is being issued by the Department of Energy Office of Science for Brookhaven National Laboratory.

Questions and Clarifications

July 19, 2024

Question 1:

Attachment (B4)

• Motor connector is defined in 3.3.3.6 which has motor wires in its own connector.

o It does define a unique connector. Is that mandatory?

o We typically use 9-pin DSUBS. Would that be OK?

▪ This allows for direct connection with our standard Kapton cables.

• Absolute encoder connector is defined in 3.5.1.3 (Table 12) which as all encoder wires in its own 9-pin DSUB connector.

Attachment (B)

• Section 7.5, Table 6. Defines both motor and encoder wires into one 15-pin DSUB connector.

o This is typically not advised but can be done.

Response 1:

We do need the motor/encoder to have the connector and pinout specified in the Specification document (Section 7.5, Table 6). The new motion system needs to mate to legacy electrical vacuum feedthroughs and air-side cabling for our controls system.
