Description

This procurement covers the manufacturing, treatment and testing of 2 pre-series and 18 series production jacketed 650 MHz SRF cavities for the high-β section of the proton LINAC for the Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II) at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) in the USA. UKRI-STFC Daresbury Laboratory (UKRI-STFC) is working in partnership with Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) for the cavities’ design and fabrication. The Purchase Order will be owned and managed by UKRI-STFC. FNAL personnel shall act as technical consultants upon UKRI-STFC request.

Total Quantity or Scope

This contract is to deliver 20 (18 series and 2 pre-series), 650 MHz HB superconducting elliptical cavities to UKRI-STFC Daresbury Laboratory, Warrington, UK. The Contractor is to fabricate, assemble, treat, factory QC test, and transport these cavities in accordance with the details of this specification and provided drawings. The pre-series cavities are to be first delivered without helium tanks (bare) for the cold RF test and first-stage manufacturing acceptance. The cavities will be returned to the Contractor for jacketing, then delivered to UKRI-STFC for the cold RF test and final-stage manufacturing acceptance. The 18 series cavities are to be delivered to UKRI-STFC jacketed and ready for the cold test. The Contractor must furnish all required labour, materials, tooling, and equipment other than those explicitly listed to be supplied by UKRI-STFC (Section 6.1). Prior to the start of the fabrication, the Contractor is to provide detailed manufacturing documentation for UKRI-STFC’s approval. At all stages of manufacture, the Contractor must provide QC documentation of all sub-components and parts, their preparation and any testing performed to ensure manufacturing compliance to specification. The goods are to be covered by a full manufacturing warranty for 24 months from the date of delivery to UKRI-STFC premises, or partner.
