Description

BACKGROUND



NIST is seeking information from sources that may be capable of providing services that meets or exceeds the following draft minimum specifications:



The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Radiation Safety Division (RSD) is responsible for radiation protection and regulatory compliance matters for NIST-s radioactive materials license at the NIST Gaithersburg, MD campus. As part of managing the radiation safety program, RSD is obligated to identify and quantify small radioactive sources and samples containing alpha, beta, and gamma emitting nuclides. Identification and quantification is required to comply with Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regulatory requirements, Department of Transportation (DOT) shipping requirements and for Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) disposal requirements. In order to ensure functional and calibrated instruments are available for the Source Users to conduct their surveys, GRSD needs to procure a replacement liquid scintillation counter for our current aging instrument to accurately detect low energy beta radiation in samples.



SPECIFICATIONS



The requirements are for a brand name Hidex 300 SL automatic liquid scintillation counting system or equal.



1. Instrument design: The instruments shall be able to count at least 40 samples of 20ml vials. The instrument shall have at a minimum: have 70 mm internal Pb shielding design for low background; an electrostatic controller; spectral analysis and sample replay capability; high sensitivity, low-level count mode; automatic color, chemical and luminescence (quenching) detection and correction; direct measurement of efficiency and DPM by triple-to-double coincidence ratio (TDCR); alpha/beta discrimination capability; Instrument Performance Assessment (IPA) capability.



2. System operation and user interface: The instrument shall be controlled primarily through a connected computer using an auto...
