### Lot Information

Lot 1

The Electronic and Electrical Engineering Department within the University of Strathclyde require a sole supplier to supply, delivery and commission a Cryogenic Measurement Chamber to be used to characterise the performance of superconductors. With the current project, the Applied Superconductivity Laboratory seeks to install a cryogenic measurement chamber for characteristing the performance of superconductors. The measurement chamber requires a background magnetic field of 8 T. The chamber diameter is larger than 80 mm, with a temperature down to 20 K. Current leads to the chamber required to provide larger than 600 A.. Economic operators may be excluded from the competition if they are in any of the situations referred to in Regulation 58 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015.
