Radome Replacement

The purpose of this acquisition is to procure and install a new air inflatable radome onto the GLOBUS system. The radome will be greater than 20 meters in diameter and air-supported with a self-contained pressurization system which regulates the pressure and airflow into the radome in accordance with wind velocity and pressure requirements. The radome needs to have 16 electromagnetic windows. These windows are required to attach around the box beam frame of the facility and anchored with clamp bars. The radome will be installed on an 18 foot high steel box beam and will be anchored with a base ring assembly. Additionally, an accelerated life test will be conducted on a sample of the radome material to determine the life expectancy and maintenance interval of the new radome and the old radome will need to be disposed. The radome material requires minimal maintenance needs and no painting throughout its lifetime.
