Radiation-Hardened Environmental Test Chamber Modification

The contract involves modifying a Tenney TJR environmental test chamber to ensure it can function effectively in a radiation environment. This is achieved by relocating sensitive semiconductor components to a remote control chassis, thereby protecting them from direct exposure to gamma irradiation. The modification aims to maintain full operational capability of the test chamber while subject to the radiation conditions typical of certain aerospace or scientific applications. Issued by NASA Shared Services Center, the subcontract requires completed modifications to be performed at Greenbelt, Maryland. The work falls under the NAICS code 333318, which relates to commercial and industrial machinery manufacturing. The solicitation was posted on June 10, 2026, with a response deadline of June 15, 2026. This effort supports NASA’s need for radiation-hardened testing environments for validating hardware and materials exposed to high-radiation conditions.
