Medical Gas Panel Installation Questions and Answers Pt 2.

• Can you provide floor plans of the adjoining buildings between Bldg1 and Bldg 37 so we can attempt to identify a path of travel? The floor plan provided is not sufficient. We are requesting

1st floor and basement drawings.

• Prints for building 1 first floor, building 1 basement, building 37, and a sitemap have been provided.

• The new master alarm panel is required to be 120VAC e-power. NFPA chapter 5: 5.1.9.1(9) refers to power from the Life safety branch of the essential electrical system chapter 6:

6.7.5.1.2.3. If there is no e-power in this building, the new Master alarm panel will not pass final verification. Is the VA accepting a panel that will not meet code or can we propose a new location? Possible chiller plant, boiler plant, or an office in the building where maintenance personnel sit?

• VA will accept panel with no emergency power.

• Is there a chase, tunnel, or anything connecting the hospital to Bldg 37? If not, this would require digging to install conduit connecting the two buildings. There is not a chase or tunnel. There is buried conduit connecting building 1 to building 37. There is no drawing of the path of the conduit. Do you know the size of the buried conduit? Is there space to pull additional wire? Is there a pull string on both ends of the conduit?

• A pull string in building 37 was not found. In building 37 the conduit appears to be 2 inch. Pipe size has not been verified after it leaves building 37.

• Could you confirm the approximate distance from the source building to the new panel location in Building 37 where alarm wiring will need to be routed?

• An approximate distance of 900ft was estimated using google earth for a route of the cable. This estimate does not account for any deviations that may be required to route the cable around obstacles. This route is a guess and may differ from the route you choose to take.

• Recommend field verifying route for cables and distances.

• Please see attachment med gas points of interest

• How many alarm source wires will be required for proper functionality?

• It will need to be the amount of wires required to provide the same functions as the Master alarm panel in the picture provided previously. Please reference manufacturer’s specifications for wiring requirements.

• Is there existing alarm wiring in Building 37, or will new wiring be required entirely?

• New wiring will be required.

• If new wiring is needed, is there existing underground conduit available for use to pull the wiring? Yes, but you will need to verify if it is sufficient.

• If so, can you provide the conduit size and path layout to assist in determining capacity and compatibility? I can not confirm the path.

• In building 37 the conduit appears to be 2 inch. Pipe size has not been verified after it leaves building 37

• Lastly, we’d like to note that the Amico Alert-2 system is now obsolete. The current model is the

Amico Alert-3. Please confirm whether the VA intends to proceed with the Alert-3 model or has an alternative requirement. The Amico Alert-2series Master alarm panel is what is stated in the

SOW. Please proceed with what is stated in the SOW.
