12639526Q0260 4

Purpose The processes involved in the rearing of Mexican Fruit Fly requires the use of (1) commercial eclosion tray/screen washing systems for the sanitation of adult production of Mexican Fruit Fly.

This equipment is used to disinfect fruit fly enclosures. Without the use of this equipment, the process is extremely labor intensive and could result in monetary surplus regarding labor. The request for a Better Engineering model C-24 “Cyberjet” system is to provide the program with a quality specialized equipment that is identical or equivalent to the existing equipment as current on-site tray/screen washing system is obsolete. Procurement of this equipment is an effective use of program allocations to avoid delays in the rearing, release, and sanitation purposes involving all aspects of sterile insect releases used for biological control of plant pests.

Requirements The purpose of this project is to procure a Model C-24 “Cyberjet” that will be used at the Mexican fruit fly Rearing Facility. The work to be performed under this contract consists of furnishing all materials, equipment, supplies, labor and transportation as required by the Pricing Schedule and in accordance with these specifications. All work materials and services not expressly called for in these specifications but are necessary for completion of the contract requirements shall be performed and furnished by the Contractor at no additional cost to the Government.

System Footprint / Dimensions

• Overall approximate length: 324”

• Overall approximate width: 60”

• Overall approximate height: 80”

Utility Requirements

• 460 Volt, 3-Phase, 60 HZ

12639526Q0260 5

• Rotary Disconnect

Materials of Construction

• Tanks: 2 and 11 Gauge Stainless Steel/Type 304

• Canopies: 10 and 11 Gauge Stainless Steel/Type 304

• Exterior Plumbing: Stainless Steel/Type 304

• Interior Plumbing: Stainless Steel/Type 304

• Spray & Dry Manifolds: Stainless Steel/Type 304

• Re-circulating Pumps: Stainless Steel/Type 304

• Conveyor Components: Stainless Steel/Type 304

• All wetted parts of the system are stainless steel except: 1) steam exhaust fans may be aluminum or stainless, 2) blowers for drying are mild steel, 3) some duct work is PVC, and

4) water solenoid valves are brass.

Product Clearance/Working Dimensions

• 24" wide conveyor belt

• 16" high vertical clearance

• Product dimension 30”x30”x1”

Conveyor

• Conveyor system is one continuous 24" wide belt

• 3/8" flat wire belt with 1" x 1" mesh

• Belt is supported with stainless steel rollers for minimal friction

• Rated load is 50 lbs. per linear foot (higher capacities are available)

• Take-up bearings (on load end)

Conveyor Drive

• Drive is variable speed, rated for 50-lbs./linear ft.

• 1/2 HP gear motor

• Electronic "Smart Drive" (senses torque/offers jam protection)

• Variable speed, 1-10 FPM

• E-stops on load and unload sections

True Modular Construction

• Six standard modules: three spray modules and three dry modules

• System can be configured with an unlimited number of modules in any sequence

• The modules and the load/unload ends bolt together (not welded); easy to change/ expand the system in the future

Powered Vertical Doors-Total Canopy Access

• Each module will have a large, vertical, powered door on the front side for full access to the inside of the module.

12639526Q0260 6

• For example, a three-stage C-24-S5/S3/DH will have 3 powered doors. One for each module.

• Fresh Rinse (FR) modules (normally just 30” long) will be incorporated into the adjacent spray module to be one module with one door effectively.

• Each door will have two actuators (pneumatic or electric is in question), one on each side.

• With the push of a button, powered vertical doors give you complete access to the modules.

• Multiple vertical doors on the front side of the canopy offer complete access (to spray, dry, and buffer areas)

• For larger models (C-48 and larger), there are optional vertical access doors on the back side of the system (spray and dry zones)

• The front doors allow removal of all spray manifolds (top and bottom) without having to remove the belting

"S3" Spray Module

• 68" overall module length

• 16" inlet buffer, 36" spray zone, 16" outlet buffer

• Heated tank; 275 gallons, 36 KW heat

• 5 HP pump (100 GPM at 50 PSI), vertical seal-less style

• Nominal operating temperature of 140° F

• Vertical canopy door for complete access

"S5" Spray Module

• 92" overall module length

• 16" inlet buffer, 60" spray zone, 16" outlet buffer

• Heated tank; 400 gallons, 48 kW heat

• 10 HP pump (150 GPM at 55 PSI), vertical seal-less style

• Nominal operating temperature of 140° F

• Vertical canopy door for complete access

"DH" Dry Module (Heated)

• Air return is now on the roof.

o BE’s powerful drying modules recirculate air for the highest energy efficiency. The air return pathway is on the roof to protect the blower and air heater from water and debris.

o Our competitors’ blowers, being at the ground level, are consistently clogged with water or debris falling into the bottom side air return opening, causing significant problems with the blower and air heater.

• 72" overall length

• 4 overhead air manifolds (adjust up and down) and 3 bottom manifolds

• 10 HP centrifugal blower, 1900 CFM

• 45 kW air heat system

• Nominal operating temperatures up to 250° F

12639526Q0260 7

• Up to 90% of the air is re-circulated to conserve energy and avoid air blow-out

• Insulated (1" thick, covered with stainless steel cladding)

• Vertical Door canopy access

Load and Unload Ends

• The load and unload ends are each 18" long

• Ends unbolt for future module additions

• Emergency stop switches on both ends

Solution Tank Features

• Water level controls, see below

• Overflow coupling (2" NPT)

• Tank cover plates beneath the conveyor belt (direct all fluid trough the chip basket before re-entering the tank)

• Removable chip basket

• Sloped tank floor for drainage and cleaning (2" diameter drain)

• Side tank extensions with removable covers for easy chemical addition, filter basket removal and tank clean out

• Mounted on 7 gauge, stainless steel forklift channels

DSS-24 DOOR SAFETY SWITCH

• Door safety switch (one per door)

Water Level Controls and Auto Water Fill

• Water fill lines have extra protection to avoid overflows, which includes:

• Manual shut-off valve

• In-line strainer

• Master solenoid valve

• Secondary solenoid valve

• Indicator lights for the high and low positions

• Water is automatically added (solenoid valve opens) when water is not at a "normal" level for two (2) minutes

• Water level controls include sensors for four (4) water levels; "normal level" in run mode, "normal level" in non-run mode, emergency low, and emergency high

External Finish

• Natural stainless steel (only components such as the control panel, motors etc. are painted)

Spray and Dry Manifolds

• Dry manifolds are formed to maximize air volume and velocity

• The bottom spray manifolds can be removed without disconnecting the conveyor belt

12639526Q0260 8

• All spray manifolds are accessible via the canopy access doors, including the bottom manifolds

• Spray manifolds are heavy gauge piping with V-jet spray nozzles

• All manifolds are stainless steel

The Drying Modules

• Unfortunately, there is market confusion in that some companies will incorrectly reference a blow-off as a dryer

• As evidenced by the specifications above, there are major differences between a short blow-off section and bonafide dry modules

Central Control Station

• PLC is available (see options)

• Overload control and fault for motors

• Over-temp control and fault light for air heat systems

• Variable speed dial for conveyor belt

• Emergency stop switch

• 2-channel, 7-day/24-hour timer; controls water heaters and optional oil skimmer(s)

• Includes the following additions: 1) main breaker disconnect, 2) emergency stop switch,

3) Panduit for wire, and 4) greater segregation of high and low voltage wires

• Allen Bradley Micro850

• Control panel located on load end of system

• Controls for all modules are housed in one central control station

(b) If the Contractor participates in, facilitates, or funds programs that implicate Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 or Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, as amended, including but not limited to grants to or for schools, colleges, universities, 4-H programs, non-governmental organization (NGO) programs, sports programs, and education-related grants to prisons or other detention facilities, the Contractor certifies that it will remain compliant with those laws, including the requirements set forth in Executive Order 14168, Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government, and Executive Order 14173, Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity.
