## Description

**AMENDMENT TO SOLICITATION 1333ND25QNB030396 VACUUM GAUGES Vendor Questions:** Nist lists 275 Convectron gauge and 423 cold cathode gauge. The 937B-US-NANANA-NA however is a base model with no control cards. Is NIST seeking a complete system with a configured 937B model to control the 275 and 423 gauges? What lengths does NIST need; 10’, 25’ or 50’.

**NIST Responses:** In the SoW, line item 0003 specification A(b) calls for the controller to be "Configured for 2 cold cathode gauges and 2 rough vacuum gauges.” This is intended to require any cards or additional components such that the controller can actually control the specified gauges. Yes, we are looking for a complete system with a configured 937B model to control the 275 and 423 gauges. Cable lengths of ten (10) feet will be adequate. Per the attached SF1449.
