Magnet Power Supplies

The solicitation seeks exact magnet power supplies meeting specific technical specifications for use at Fermilab in Batavia, Illinois, with delivery required to the facility’s designated address. The contract involves five precision power supply units: one each for a focusing solenoid, a collector (de-focusing) solenoid, and a 90-degree bending dipole, plus three units for steering magnets, all designed to deliver stable, bidirectional constant current up to 300 amperes and 20 volts with ≤0.1% current ripple, ±0.005 A resolution, and at least 85% efficiency. Units must be rackmountable in a 19-inch, ≤3U chassis with rear-mounted, labeled terminals, digital closed-loop regulation, Ethernet-based remote control, and hardware interlocks for overcurrent, overvoltage, and overtemperature protection. The equipment must operate reliably under environmental conditions of -10℃ to +40℃ and 20–80% RH, with acceptance testing including 8-hour stability, power cycling, and fault verification. The offeror must be able to comply with the full set of technical requirements as outlined in the documentation and cannot substitute or modify the specified items. The solicitation, issued under number 381283NN on April 28, 2026, has a response deadline of May 13, 2026, and is being managed by the Department of Energy through Fermilab as the contracting office. Pricing is quoted in Euros at a total of €59,250, with USD pricing available at the time of order, though no official exchange rate or currency adjustment mechanism is provided. Delivery terms are Ex Works, meaning the buyer assumes all transportation responsibilities and risks upon product availability at the seller’s premises, with an expected delivery window of 16–18 weeks after order placement. Payment is due in full upon goods being ready for shipment, remitted to Fermilab’s designated accounting office, and invoicing must be submitted electronically via email without use of government systems like WAWF or IPP. The supplier, OCEM Power Electronics, holds ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications but does not include UEI, CAGE, or socioeconomic certifications in its response, and no contract clauses, evaluation factors, or special requirements beyond the technical and commercial specifications are provided in the solicitation package.
