N0016426Q0160 - SOLE SOURCE - TRIGGER SPARK GAPS - FSG 5960 - NAICS 334511
ISSUE DATE 21-MAY-2026 - CLOSING DATE 29-MAY-2026 - 11:00 PM Eastern Time
ITEM DESCRIPTION- Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane has a requirement for an initial quantity of two (2) Trigger Spark Gaps, part number ZR7512 SPRK GAP, TRIG VAC, 45 KV with additional options over the next four years to purchase an additional quantity of eight (8) Trigger Spark Gaps. Required delivery is within 22 weeks of award or option exercise.

This is being solicited on a sole source only basis because the ZR7512 is a cold-cathode, vacuum-triggered spark gap designed for high-voltage switching applications. It is a General Electric product, part of the ZR-series triggered vacuum gaps, and is used in systems requiring rapid, high-current switching of stored energy. The ZR7512 combines the wide voltage range and reliability of vacuum gaps with the ease of triggering of gas gaps. It is suitable for non-repetitive high-current pulses with minimal delay and jitter, making it ideal for fault protection and energy discharge. The ZR7512 Triggered Spark Gap is a mission-critical safety and operational component that provides essential high-voltage and high-current protection for the Aegis Simplified Driver (SDR), the SPS-49 Radar Klystron microwave tube, associated testing infrastructure, and operating personnel. Extensive market and engineering analysis confirms that no other triggered spark gap possesses the necessary specifications to seamlessly integrate into the current architecture. Attempting to procure and integrate a substitute component is both technically and financially prohibitive; it ...
