AI Contract Overview
The NAMRU-SA DEHE Department is seeking a laser-safe enclosure engineered to contain the full radiation output of a 10kW laser operating at 1060–1070 nm with a 1 mm beam diameter for up to 10 seconds, ensuring that all direct and scattered radiation remains below Maximum Permissible Exposure limits. The enclosure must be constructed from materials specifically rated to withstand 10,000 W/cm of laser power, preventing any hazardous radiation leakage. It must measure at least 12 feet in length, width, and 10 feet in height to accommodate the laser system and personnel, and include a roof and integrated lighting. A fully functional safety interlock system is required to instantly shut down the laser whenever any access door is opened, eliminating the risk of accidental exposure during maintenance or operation. Access to the enclosure must be restricted to trained and authorized personnel only, with mechanisms in place to enforce this control. The design must also mitigate the buildup of airborne dust and particulates to protect internal optics and sensitive equipment. Compliance with ANSI Z136.1 standards is mandatory, requiring appropriate warning labels, signage, and emergency procedure instructions to be visibly affixed to the enclosure. The contract is issued under solicitation number N0018926QB093 as a Total Small Business Set-Aside, with a response deadline of July 13, 2026. The enclosure must be delivered with a standard 12-month warranty covering defects in material and workmanship, and performance is expected at a location in Texas with the prime point of contact being Kimberly Mrasek at the Naval Supply Systems Command in Norfolk, Virginia.

Full Description
The NAMRU-SA, DEHE Department requires one (1) laser-safe enclosure rated to withstand direct and scattered laser radiation from a 10kW laser, ensuring that radiation levels outside the enclosure remain below the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits as defined by relevant safety standards.
Specifications:
Laser Radiation Protection: To withstand radiation levels of a 10kW laser, the enclosure must utilize material explicitly rated to
withstand reflections from a laser powered at 10,000 W/cm, 1060-1070 nm for 10 seconds with a 1 mm beam diameter. This
specific threshold provides the necessary barrier against direct or reflected beams from a 10kW source.
Safety Interlock System: The enclosure must feature a fully integrated safety interlock system connected to the access door(s).
The interlock must automatically disable the laser system's operation immediately upon an access door being opened.
Physical Dimensions: The enclosure must provide minimum internal dimensions of 12 feet in length, 12 feet in width, and 10
feet in height (12' L x 12' W x 10' H) to accommodate the laser system, personnel, and associated equipment.
Build Design: The enclosure must contain roof and lighting kit.
Access Control: The access door mechanism must be designed to restrict entry to authorized and trained personnel only.
Environmental Control: The enclosure must be designed to minimize the accumulation of airborne dust and particulates on
internal optics and equipment.
Standards & Compliance: The enclosure must be delivered with all required safety features to meet or exceed ANSI Z136.1
("Safe Use of Lasers") standards. This includes, but is not limited to, appropriate warning labels, signage, and emergency
procedure information affixed to the enclosure.
Warranty Terms: Standard 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
