About this file

This is a Description of Requirement – Supplies document for the Alpena CRTC Munitions Section requesting the procurement of one stationary electric ordnance deformer unit. The equipment must process spent cartridges up to and including 20mm at a capacity of 8,000 to 11,000 pounds per hour depending on size and mix of cartridges. The required system includes an infeed conveyor with electric drive and catch hopper, a high-speed rotary drum grinder operating at 480V/three phase with hood, chute, and soft start, a discharge conveyor with electronic drive, a control panel, and system integration. The procurement also includes on-site installation, setup, and training for one group of personnel to calibrate the system to meet government specifications, as well as shipping for the equipment.

The requirement mandates compliance with DESR 6055.09 91-201, Edition 1, Change 1 (February 23, 2024), paragraph V4.E5.18, which establishes demilitarization processing standards for .50-caliber and smaller cartridge cases. Key compliance requirements include pre-processing screening to ensure only expended .50-caliber and smaller cartridges are processed, equipment testing to contain overpressure, fragment, and thermal hazards from a worst-case single live round scenario, operation within manufacturer specifications, equipment inspection and maintenance procedures, and establishment of procedures for material screening, segregation, equipment operation and maintenance, and processed material disposition. DoD Components must approve the specific equipment and follow guidance in DoDM 4140.72, DAFMAN 21-201, and TO 11A-1-60. Explosives safety siting requirements specify that operations meeting these requirements located outside Inhabited Building Distance (IBD) from all Protected Explosive Sites (PESs) do not require Defense Explosives Safety Board (DDESB) site plan submission, while operations within IBD arcs must submit site plans and be sited at Intraline Distance (ILD) except from the PES to which the operation is integral.

V4.E5.18.1. A demilitarization operation for processing expended .50-caliber and smaller cartridge cases can be treated as a non-explosive operation provided:

V4.E5.18.1.1. Cartridge casings to be processed are screened prior to processing. Screening is intended to ensure that only .50-caliber and smaller are processed, and to remove unused .50-caliber and smaller cartridges.

V4.E5.18.1.2. Demilitarization processing equipment is tested to be capable of containing overpressure, fragment, and thermal hazards associated with a worst-case reaction involving a single live round of the most energetic cartridge that could be processed in the equipment.

V4.E5.18.1.3. Demilitarization processing equipment is operated within the manufacturer’s specifications and restricted only to the processing of expended .50-caliber and smaller cartridge casings.

V4.E5.18.1.4. Demilitarization processing equipment is inspected and maintained to ensure safe operation.

V4.E5.18.2. The DoD Components must:

V4.E5.18.2. (Added)(DAF) Installations will follow guidance as specified in DoDM 4140.72: (T- 0)
