This is a Scope of Work document for a federal chiller and pump replacement project at Camp Lejeune, NC. The project (PROJECT # 25M066CN, MACC # 25-0442) requires replacement of chillers and chilled water pumps at four buildings: BB-270 (75-ton chiller with 2 pumps), BB-274 (70-ton chiller with 2 pumps), BB-275 (75-ton chiller with 2 pumps), and HP-121 (90-ton chiller with 1 pump). The contractor must provide all material, labor, equipment, and supervision for installation, including hydronic pipe cleaning and flushing prior to chiller installation. The contractor bears responsibility for verifying and resizing pumps to meet manufacturer specifications, ensuring proper GPM and voltage compatibility with new equipment.

The specification requires chillers equipped with multiple advanced features including VFD-controlled condenser fan motors, thermal dispersion flow switches, phase loss and under/over voltage protection, minimum 2 scroll compressors per refrigerant circuit with isolation valves, and hot gas bypass capability. Condenser coils must utilize aluminum alloy 9150 microchannel construction with flexible cationic epoxy polymer e-coating meeting 10,000-hour salt spray resistance per ASTM B117 and 2K polyurethane topcoat. All chillers require 10-year parts, labor, and refrigerant warranties, brazed plate heat exchangers where applicable, bypass isolation lines, factory-installed water strainers with specified CV values by pipe size, thermal dispersion flow switches, and seismic feet. Control panels must feature BACnet/MSTP DDC microprocessor controllers in NEMA 3R weatherproof enclosures with accessible microprocessor access. Chiller sound data must meet published octave band specifications at specified frequencies from 30 feet, with attenuation provided by contractor at their expense if necessary. All piping shall be schedule 40 welded steel with minimum 2-inch polyisocyanurate insulation and heat trace for freeze protection. The contractor must schedule outages 14 days in advance through PWD and complete work within 300 days of award. All equipment requires prior government approval via spec sheet submittal. The contractor must grant Public Works rights to all HVAC equipment and refrigerant reclamation, with disposed equipment becoming contractor property post-removal.

TITLE: CHILLER& PUMP REPLACEMENT BB270, BB274,

BB275 , and HP-121

ATTACHMENTS:

Loop Cleaning Procedures Spec Sheets for pumps and chiller.

General Description:

Replace chillers at the following buildings.

1. BB-270 75 Ton Chiller and 2- Chilled Water Pumps

2. BB-274 70 Ton Chiller and 2- Chilled Water Pumps

3. BB275 75 Ton Chiller and 2- Chilled Water Pumps

4. HP-121 90 Chiller and 1- Chilled Water Pump

*Chiller and disconnect sizes should be verified by the contractor.

*** It is the responsibility of the contractor to replace pump/pumps on site of each new chiller installation and assure the pump/pumps will operate the new chiller with the proper GMP. If the existing pump does not meet the new chiller requirements it is the responsibility of the contractor to resize the pump with the proper style and GPM for the chiller. Verifying pump voltages is the responsibility of the contractor.

SCOPE OF WORK:

The contractor shall provide all material, labor, equipment, and supervision required to accomplish the following:

Detailed Requirements and Specifications: The contractor shall make site visits coordinated with PWD, Scotty Sholar-910-389-4418

Chiller Specifications and Basis of Design.

1. All chilled water piping and strainers shall be cleaned prior to installation of new chiller. See attachment for hydronic pipe cleaning and flushing procedures.

2. Replace chilled water pumps and drives on all chiller installs. Pump must meet the manufacturer specifications for each chiller.

3. Chiller can have brazed plate heat exchangers if manufacture can provide a 10-year parts, labor, and refrigerant warranty the entire chiller. In addition to adding a bypass line that allows the chiller to be isolated from the rest of the chilled water piping loop for post-installation/pre-startup system flushing. A factory installed water strainer shall also be included for each chiller.

4. Chiller shall be equipped with a 20amp GFCI convenience outlet for maintenance to be performed. Chiller disconnects shall be replaced along with the flexible liquid tight conduit and connectors between disconnect and the chiller. New disconnect shall meet the manufacturers recommendations. Heat Trace shall protect the evaporator and all piping that is subject to freezing. The 20amp heat trace circuit shall be on a separate circuit. It is the responsibility of the contractor to verify circuit is active. If not, a new circuit shall be run. Location of circuits and existing disconnects listed above.

5. Chiller shall include single point power connection to a non-fused disconnect switch with through-the-door handle and compressor circuit breakers.

6. Chiller condenser fan motors shall include VFD’s to optimize chiller efficiency and maintain proper head pressure. The condenser fan motors shall be TEFC PSC style motors.

7. Condenser coils shall have a flexible cationic epoxy polymer e-coat uniformly applied to all metallic surfaces with no material bridging between fins. The electro-coat shall ensure complete HX encapsulation of all conductive surfaces with uniform dry film thickness from 0.6-1.2 mils (15-30um). E-coating shall meet 5B rating for cross- hatch adhesion per ASTM B3359. Corrosion durability will be confirmed through testing no less than10000 hours salt spray resistance per ASTM B117 using scribed aluminum test coupons.

After e-coat cure, HX shall receive a spray applied, 2K polyurethane black topcoat to prevent UV degradations of epoxy e-coat film. Topcoat shall have a 60-degree gloss (<90%) and dry film thickness of 50-60um.

8. All condenser coils shall be Microchannel coils constructed of aluminum alloy 9150 (Long Life Alloy), to help prevent inter-granular corrosion and increase mechanical strength before and after brazing. Aluminum alloy 3102 coils will not be accepted due to mechanical failure rates. Copper tube and aluminum fin condenser coils will be accepted as an alternate if they can include the factory coating with published 10000-hour salt spray rating listed above.

9. Condenser coils shall be protected by louvered coil guards and compressor housing shall have equivalent protection.

10. Chiller shall sit on Seismic Feet. And rubber pads installed on bottom of rails to elevate side rails to allow wash down of debris from under chiller.

11. Chiller must include thermal dispersion type flow switches. Paddle type will not be accepted. The flow shall be factory installed at the evaporator outlet.

12. Chillers must include phase loss with under/over voltage protection with LED indication of the type of fault to guard against compressor motor burn out.

13. All piping shall be a minimum of schedule 40 mild steel, welded to pipe fitting standards.

14. Emergency chiller connections: a set of emergency tees shall be installed before entering the chiller on supply and return lines. The tees shall match the diameter of the pipe. A butterfly valve and a bolted cover plate shall be installed.

15. Control panel shall have access to microprocessor (controller) for viewing and set up, without interrupting machine operation. Chiller shall include a centrally located weatherproof control panel including DDC microprocessor controller. Control box shall be designed in accordance with NEMA 3R rating. Controllers and screens must be located within the panel and not exposed to sunlight. All wiring within control panel shall be ran through slotted wiring duct with covers. Loose wires with zip ties will not be accepted.

16. Units 75 nominal tons and up shall include reduction mode to allow for reduced sound operation. VFD’s are to limit the condenser fan speeds to reduce sound. User shall be able to specify times chiller will operate in sound reduction mode. Chiller shall be set to override the reduced sound mode when the additional capacity is needed. This will make sure the chiller is optimized between required capacity and the lowest sound level possible.

17. Each refrigerant circuit must include a minimum of 2 scroll compressor. Multiple scroll compressors shall be utilized to prevent large capacity loss due to compressor failures. Compressor modules must have isolation valves and controls to lock out individual compressor stages. If low load levels are required, then the chiller is to include hot gas bypass to allow unit operation to 10% of full load to prevent compressors from staging on and off.

18. Each condenser circuit shall have isolation valves, service valves and replaceable core filter driers.

19. Chillers must meet the sound data listed in the below at specified frequencies.
