    Brief

    Diamond Light Source (DLS) is a world-leading facility on the Harwell Science & Innovation Campus in Oxfordshire that enables cutting-edge research in science, engineering, and innovation. The facility is undergoing a major upgrade to Diamond-II, which will significantly enhance scientific capabilities through improved speed, spatial resolution, and user access to advanced instruments for life and physical sciences. This contract requires the detailed design, manufacture, quality control, testing, and delivery of two identical out-of-vacuum main DC/PM septum magnets with integrated vacuum vessels and support stands, plus spare components. The magnets will be installed with inverted orientations—one for booster extraction bend (left) and one for storage ring injection bend (right)—requiring inverted magnetic fields and rotationally symmetric support frames with externally positioned service connections. Suppliers should be prepared to work to precision specifications and deliver components suitable for a high-performance synchrotron facility.
