Lab environment 80 Kelvin cryocooler

The National Research Council of Canada is seeking a cryocooler capable of maintaining an 80 Kelvin environment for integration into a test cryostat to advance cryogenic research and development capabilities. This solicitation, identified by number 26-58063 and posted on June 22, 2026, requires vendors to submit responses by July 7, 2026, at 7:00 PM Eastern Time. The cryocooler must be designed for reliable operation within a laboratory setting and must seamlessly interface with existing cryogenic infrastructure to support cutting-edge scientific experimentation. The contract is open to all eligible suppliers as no specific set-aside classification applies, and performance is expected to occur within Canada. The procurement is being managed by the Government of Canada through the National Research Council, with Adebisi Adeyeye serving as the primary point of contact for contractual inquiries. Interested parties can reach out via email at adebisi.adeyeye@nrc-cnrc.gc.ca or by phone at 343-550-9383 for technical or procedural clarifications. All proposals must align with the technical specifications of the required cryocooler system and demonstrate proven functionality and compatibility with laboratory-scale cryogenic systems. The successful bidder will enable a new research capacity for the NRC, contributing to national scientific advancement in low-temperature physics and materials analysis.
