BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Liquid helium (LHe) is used for cryogenic applications across the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) (including standards development and dissemination, initiatives, Innovations in Measurement Science (IMS) projects, and other agency projects). LHe has several unique properties, including an extremely low boiling point and its non-reactivity, so it cannot be replaced by other gases easily.
Helium is a non-renewable resource that is only found naturally in some natural gas deposits. Therefore, the LHe supply is limited, both in quantity and location. LHe is volatile and must be used within a narrow window of time from delivery, typically within one to two weeks before significant loss of product.
PURPOSE
The Contractor shall furnish the necessary personnel, material, equipment, services, and facilities to supply LHe in 100, and 250-liter contractor-owned dewars, on an as-needed basis.
PLACE OF PERFORMANCE
LHe orders shall be delivered to NIST’s central drop off sites. Empty dewars shall be picked up at the same facility. The Contractor shall deliver to and pick-up from the central drop of sites located at, 325 Broadway, Boulder, CO.
