About this file
This is a Statement of Work (SOW) for procuring a fully interchangeable replacement liquid nitrogen pump for the National Transonic Facility at NASA Langley Research Center.
The procurement requires a Liquid Nitrogen Pump that is mechanically, electrically, and functionally identical to the existing Cryostar CS400/355/20L Pump (Serial Number 96013/02). The existing pump specifications include a single-stage design with a 400mm nominal impeller diameter (355mm trimmed), 20mm tip width, and 1780 rpm operation. Operating parameters include liquid nitrogen at -195°C, 5 barg maximum suction pressure, 1.4m minimum NPSH, 1300 gpm flow rate, and 180 ft differential head. The existing motor is a 405 TD NEMA-rated electric motor rated at 60 Hz, 3 phase, 480V, 100 Hp. The new pump specifications call for an LIN Transfer MCP 400/20L-1.7-CB-WB C/0 vertical centrifugal pump with a 75kW LSES280SD electric motor (4 poles, fixed speed, 480V, 60 Hz). The replacement pump must include PT100 sensors, heating cables, grease retaining chambers with N2 purge, labyrinth seals, control panels for seal gas and low pressure drop management, mechanical performance testing in cryogenic conditions, and documentation including installation, assembly checklist, and performance test reports. Spare parts include a commissioning kit for installation and start-up, with seaworth packing required. Delivery to NASA Langley Research Center Central Receiving in Hampton, Virginia, is required by June 30, 2027.

1 Title: Procure Fully Interchangeable Replacement Liquid Nitrogen Pump 12
2 Background:
The National Transonic Facility is a high-pressure, cryogenic, closed-circuit wind tunnel that uses supercold nitrogen gas at high pressure to duplicate true flight aerodynamics.
The Liquid Nitrogen Pump 12 (P12) is one of the pumps that supplies liquid nitrogen to the facility. Liquid Nitrogen is stored in the 3000 Ton tank and then transferred to the 800 Ton tank. This task is to procure a fully interchangeable critical spare for P12.
3 Description of work to be performed:
This task is to procure a Liquid Nitrogen Pump with the same mechanical, electrical, and controls interfaces as the existing Cryostar CS400/355/20L Pump with Serial Number 96013/02.
