Announcement:
Supply and installation of an helium cryogenic distribution system to test components of the High Luminosity Project
CERN intends to place two contracts for the design, supply, installation and commissioning of cooling systems for the High Luminosity project at CERN; this project includes installations in Point 1 (Switzerland) and Point 5 (France) of the LHC accelerator. The contracts will include 15 MW cooling towers, primary water (200-550 m3/h), raw water (10 m3/h), demineralised water (200 m3/h) and cold water (50-70 m3/h) cooling circuits, and all related electrical installation, accessories and stainless steel distribution pipework (DN20 to DN300). The first contract will start the installation phase in 2021, the second in 2022. Both contracts will have the commissioning phase in 2024. CERN further intends to place two framework contracts for the design, supply, installation and commissioning of cooling systems on both the French and Swiss parts of the CERN site. The supply may include counter-flow open wet or hybrid cooling towers from 1 to 10 MW cooling power, raw water cooling stations (50-800 m3/h), demineralised water cooling stations (10-400 m3/h) or large and/or complex stainless steel distribution pipework (DN20 to DN400). The two contracts will have an initial duration of five years.
Interested firms shall have a proven competence and experience in industrial cooling system
