About this file

This document is a Questions and Responses file for a U.S. Coast Guard solicitation (70Z04425RC2PL2550) for Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) for shipboard systems. The document contains 13 technical specification questions and corresponding government responses addressing critical details such as power input configurations, TEMPEST requirements, battery specifications, and system capacities. Key clarifications include confirming a BLACK TEMPEST application, accepting L5-20/15P input configurations, allowing NEMA L5-15R outputs, and verifying a 30-minute runtime as a threshold requirement. NAVSEA is identified as the approving authority for lithium batteries in shipboard applications, and the U.S. Coast Guard will be responsible for first article testing. The UPS must meet specific dimensional constraints, with a maximum depth of 18 inches, and have a system capacity of 3.0kVA/2.25kW, with potential flexibility to adjust to 3.0kVA/2.1kW if necessary.

Answers

Technical

Specifications

Will the Government Accept one L5-30R (locking) for

PDU's to distribute more 120V receptacles

No, UPS must have several output locking receptacles for simplicity of equipment integration and lessening failure points.

Technical

Specifications the requested 30 AMP 120V input to provide 1.5kVA is not doable. At minimum, off of a L5-30P, it will be at 3000VA.

Will the Government accept L5-20P/5-20P (or even a standard 5-15P), then we can likely size down appropriately

Lowering the AMP for a suitable UPS (1.5KVA having L5-

20/15P) is acceptable.

Specifications 1.3.1

U.S. Coast Guard TEMPEST Program, COMDTINST

M2241.6 – we are unable to locate this document, please provide the locating data.

Technical

Specifications 1.3.1

MIL-STD-1680C, TEMPEST Requirements – This reference requires that RED and BLACK power be identified. The Technical Specifications do not specify if this is a RED or BLACK Application. Please identify the TEMPEST application.

Attachment 1 - Technical Specifications, Section 2.1 has been revised to state, "All Uninterruptible Power Supplies will be a BLACK application when it comes to the

TEMPEST requirements. BLACK power is the requirement due to non-cyber sensitive interactions with supported equipment. Solution must follow the applicable bonding

(Class B Bonding) requirements in accordance with MIL-

STD-1310." [MIL-STD-1310 provided as "Attachment 8" with this Amendment]

Technical

Specifications 2.1.1.3

Dimensions: Does the does the desired volume include the batteries or may the batteries be provided separately?

Attachment 1 - Technical Specifications, Section 2.1.1.3 has been revised to state, "Dimensions (Desired volume of UPS upon installation will include batteries installed

Technical

Specifications

2.1.1.3.3 Depth: Is the depth inclusive of the locking cover?

Attachment 1 - Technical Specifications, Section 2.1.1.3.3 has been revised to state, "Depth – No deeper than 18 inches due to standard rack depth and space for cabling.

The depth includes the locking cover."

Technical

Specifications 2.1.1.5

Output Connection: (4) NEMA 5-30R – the maximum current is 8.2Amps Are NEMA 5-15R Outputs acceptable?

Yes, NEMA L5-15R outputs are acceptable.

Technical

Specifications 2.1.2.1

System Capacity: 3.0kVA / 2.25kW: The system capacity is outside of the allowed value for

Reference i. MIL-DTL-24765B which has a maximum capacity of 3.0kVA / 2.1kW.

Please clarify the correct capacity.

The Government reviewed MIL-DTL-24765B and could not find the noted requirement for maximum capacity of

3.0kVA/2.1kW. It is acceptable to move forward with maximum capacity of 3.0kVA / 2.1kW, if necessary.

11 MIL-DTL-24765B

Specifies the use of Lead Acid Batteries or NAVSEA approval for the use of Lithium Batteries.

Is NAVSEA the approving authority for Lithium

Batteries?

Yes, NAVSEA is the approving authority for Lithium batteries in a shipboard application in accordance with

NAVSEA Technical Publication S9310-AQ-SAF-010 and TS-

313 Technical Standard 313 Batteries.

12 MIL-DTL-24765B

For the 1.5KVA UPS the minimum volume for lead acid batteries to achieve a run time of 30 minutes at

980W is 609 cubic inches. The maximum available volume for the UPS is 1025 cubic inches. There is insufficient volume for the UPS electronics and the batteries.

Is 30 minutes a threshold or objective value?

30 mintues is the threshold.
