The scope of delivery includes the UHV vacuum vessel, motion system, optic holders, optic bender and optics. This specification document gives detailed technical specifications guided by the properties of the source and an assessment of available technology. If the required performance can be met or exceeded using alternative designs, technologies or materials, then these will not be excluded from consideration as long as sufficient information is supplied to justify the proposed solution. If some of the technical specifications cannot be met then this should be made clear. While it is preferred that all technical specifications be achieved or exceeded, proposals that do not meet every technical specification will not necessarily be rejected. Deliverables: 1) Optics; 2) Bender; 3) The mirror support; 4) Dummy optics; 5) UHV vacuum vessel; 6) Motion system; 7) All monitoring electronics, including interface to the DLS control system, as described in this document; 8) All cabling and connections to DLS services as defined in this document; 9) Installation and commissioning of the system at DLS, as specified in this document; 10) Sufficient spare parts with long delivery times to guarantee operation of the system with minimum down-time for a period of at least 2 years from the date of final acceptance.
