About this opportunity
The Department of Energy is seeking information on a small article monitor to detect low levels of potential radioactive contamination in order to validate that the total Beta/Gamma activity in an item is less than 450 pCi/item. Key requirements include a minimum interior size of 15"x15"x18", a minimum of 2" lead shielding (or equivalent) for natural background reduction, and the ability to count down to an activity that is conservatively under 450 pCi Beta/Gamma with a non-conservative 15% error at the 95% confidence level. The counting time required is 120 seconds for Co-60 and 420 seconds for Cs-137.
This is a pre-solicitation notice with no set-aside designation. The NAICS code is 541715 - Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences, and the PSC category is AG12 - Energy R&D Services; Energy Supply; Applied Research. The due date for responses is August 23, 2024, and no information is provided about potential incumbents, award values, or budget ranges.
Notice text
NNL is seeking information on a small article monitor to detect low levels of potential radioactive contamination to determine monitoring out of small items from potentially radiologically contaminated areas.
General requirements:
NNL seeks a tool/article counter to validate the total Beta/Gamma activity in an item is less than 450 pCi/item.
Specific requirements:
Size (interior): Minimum: 15”x15”x18”
Natural Background Reduction
Minimum 2” Lead Shielding (or equivalent)
Count down to an activity that is conservatively under 450 pCi Beta/Gamma non-conservative 15% error at the 95% confidence level.
Counting Time:
Co-60; To reach a total beta/gamma activity of < 450 pCi: 120 secs
Cs-137; To reach a total beta/gamma activity of < 450 pCi: 420 secs
