Electron Gun Pulser

The Department of Energy Office of Science seeks quotes for manufacture of an Electron Gun Pulser, with quotes due October 8, 2026, at 0800 ET and questions due September 30, 2026, at 0800 ET. The procurement is full and open competition; no set-aside applies.

Place of performance is Upton, New York. The NAICS code is 334516, Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing; PSC is 6640, Laboratory Equipment and Supplies. The contract type is Firm Fixed Price with delivery 22 weeks after receipt of order to Brookhaven National Laboratory, Building 98.

The pulser must generate negative, programmable amplitude pulses for a nominally 25 Ohm gun cathode and incorporate three primary modules: Control Module, Arbitrary Waveform Generator Module, and Amplifier Module. The device must support Multi-Bunch Mode triggered by Long Trigger Input with bunch train length of 10–320 nanoseconds and Single-Bunch Mode with 1 nanosecond pulse width. Command interface requires waveform data transmitted via ethernet to the control module with fiber connection and configurable IP address. The pulser card must accommodate a YU-171 cathode socket with ANSTO design impedance matching. Outputs include Long Pulse Output and Short Pulse Output via SMA connectors with monitoring via BNC and SMA connectors.

All pricing must be all-inclusive in U.S. dollars, quoted on the Pricing Sheet (Enclosure C), and include freight, import duties, customs, and associated costs with FOB Brookhaven National Laboratory. Payment terms are Net 30 for large businesses and Net 10 for small businesses. Offerors must be registered in SAM with a Unique Entity ID, or if foreign, must complete AMS-Form-050. Award will be made to the responsive and responsible offeror submitting the lowest total price meeting all technical requirements. The procurement is subject to FAR Part 25 Buy American Act provisions and Brookhaven National Laboratory Supplier Quality Assurance Requirements (BNL-QA-101).
