The mandate of the European Spallation Source ERIC
is to design, plan, construct, commission, operate and
decommission the European Spallation Source (ESS).
It is located in Lund, Sweden, co-hosted by Sweden
and Denmark and has more than 17 Partner
Countries, including the UK. The UK contribution is
coordinated by STFC. The facility will deliver its first
neutrons in 2019 and is expected to be fully
operational by 2025. The European Spallation Source
(ESS) will be one of the largest infrastructures in
Europe and will be used for neutron production for
materials research. It will use a long pulsed
superconducting linac and accelerate a 62.5 mA
proton beam current to the energy of 2000 MeV. Peak
beam power to the target will be 125 MW, 7 times
more than the highest power existing facility.
STFC are providing a number of goods and services
on behalf of the ESS.
This tender is for the purchase of the superconducting cavities of the high-β section at 704.42 MHz of the proton LINAC for the European Spallation Source (ESS).
Cavities are equipped with the He-tank and will be produced ready to be RF tested at a qualified laboratory. STFC will provide all high purity Niobium materials to produce the piece parts.
