In brief
Natural Resources Wales awarded laboratory equipment work to Bruker UK Limited on 25 September 2025.
Built from the notice's own fields. Always check the official notice before you bid.
What the notice says
To meet the increasing sensitivity demands of new analytical methods that ensure compliance
with Environmental Quality Standards (EQS), the existing instrumentation requires upgrading to
the Bruker VIP-HESI ion source together with two replacement PCs.
The current setup is no longer capable of supporting the precision required for monitoring WFD
priority hazardous substances, as well as new and emerging chemical threats. In particular, the
existing ion source lacks the sensitivity needed to detect these compounds at the low levels
mandated by EQS.
The VIP-HESI ion source delivers significantly enhanced sensitivity, enabling more accurate
quantification of trace-level contaminants. This upgrade will also prevent premature
obsolescence of the remaining instrumentation and ensure the system remains fit for purpose.
