Image Intensifier Tube with Housing

Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory seeks to procure image intensifier tube with housing assemblies, with proposals due August 10, 2026 at 5 p.m. Central. Proposals exceeding $10,000 must include completed SARC and PUR-466 certification forms.

Place of performance is Batavia, Illinois. The procurement requires one Image Intensifier Tube V4183U, one Housing A10505, and one C6083-020 Power Supply Module, all conforming to Fermilab Specification 382873swk. The image intensifier tube must feature a fast-gated, MCP-based design with spectral response of 160–900 nm, multialkali photocathode, minimum 18 mm effective area, and 2-stage MCP configuration. Minimum luminous gain is 3×10⁵, resolution at least 40 min lp/mm, and gate time (FWHM) minimum 5 ns. The phosphor screen must be P46 or equivalent. The power supply must include over-light interlock capability resettable via external 5 V supply and support gating with 5 ns gate duration. The housing must match physical dimensions and be compatible with a 1:1 relay lens for 1-inch C-mount camera connection. All components must operate in beamline environments at temperatures from −20 to +40 degrees Celsius and survive elevated radiation levels; demonstrated accelerator operation is desired. Delivery to Fermilab Receiving in Batavia is required within 6 months of contract signature.

The contract is firm-fixed price with F.O.B. Fermilab shipping and Net 30 payment terms. Award will be made on best value basis to the lowest-price technically acceptable, responsible offeror without discussions. The NAICS code is 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) and PSC is 6650 (Optical Instruments, Test Equipment, Components and Accessories).
