Harrell, 1101 Market Street, Edney Building 5A, Chattanooga, TN 37402-2801 The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) is seeking information regarding the feasibility of a system which will permit the use of multiple video cameras inside containment of an operating nuclear reactor. The primary requirement of the system is to permit the use of a minimum of sixteen (16) cameras through a single coaxial cable. The equipment used in this application must provide for remote operation of focus, zoom, pan, tilt, and lamp control. Typical dose rates will run 2 to 6 R/hr with exposure in a typical 18 month refueling cycle expected to be 2.6 to 7.8 E4 Rad. All equipment to be placed in containment must be radiation hardened and of a type suited for the temperature range normally encountered in this environment. Any entity that has previously performed comparable work or can demonstrate the capability to successfully deliver the described system should submit their relevant qualifications, experience (including references), and proof of capability, in writing to the attention of Kathy M. Harrell, TENNESSEE VALLEY AUTHORITY, 1101 Market Street, Edney Building 5A, Chattanooga, TN 37402-2801.
