About this file

This document is a specification section for instrumentation and control systems for HVAC equipment at a Child Development Center facility in Elizabeth City, North Carolina (US Coast Guard - ESD/CIVPERS Building #62, Project No. 32-3648867). The specification establishes technical requirements for a Building Automation System (BAS) incorporating Direct Digital Control (DDC) for energy management, equipment monitoring, and subsystems with open communications capabilities.

The BMS Contractor must provide a fully integrated BAS with DDC control using electric actuation, all wiring, conduit, panels and accessories for complete system operation, and assume responsibility for all electrical work associated with the BMS including compliance with NEC and local codes. The system shall utilize open architecture supporting BACnet/IP and TCP/IP protocols, BACnet communication per ANSI/ASHRAE 135-2004, OPC server communications, and LonTalk protocol. Primary DDC panels are required at minimum of one per floor and one per major mechanical system (Air Handling Units, Hot Water Boilers, Evaporative Fluid Cooler). Building Controllers must be 32-bit, multi-tasking processors with minimum 24MB memory supporting firmware upgrades, featuring integral real-time clocks, self-diagnostics, serial communication ports, and LED status indication. Application Specific Controllers for terminal equipment must operate independently with proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control algorithms, automatic calibration provisions, and 24VAC power supply rated at minimum 125% of consumption. The system requires comprehensive software programming including energy management routines (time/day scheduling, night setback, enthalpy switchover, peak demand limiting), pre-tested control algorithms, alarm management with shelving features, scheduling capabilities with exception schedules, automatic daylight savings adjustment, and data collection with trending capabilities. Approved manufacturers include Siemens (APOGEE System), Honeywell, and Johnson Controls. The BMS Contractor must have in-place support facility within 100 miles with technical staff and spare parts, provide a full-time experienced project manager, demonstrate minimum ten years technical expertise in similar BMS installations, and maintain service organization with factory-trained personnel. All peer-to-peer controllers and displays must be UL Listed under Standards UL 916 (category PAZX), ULC C100 (category UUKL7), and UL 864 (categories UUKL, UDTZ, QVAX); field-level controllers must comply with UL 916 category PAZX. Equipment shall comply with European EMC Framework and FCC Part 15 regulations. The warranty period is one year from final acceptance with contractor responsibility for adjusting, repairing, or replacing defective components and providing software updates resolving identified deficiencies at no charge during the warranty period. Project-specific software, graphics, record drawings, database, and application programming code become owner's property. The contractor must provide comprehensive submittals within 12 weeks including complete bills of materials, manufacturer technical data, wiring diagrams, control schematics, point lists, sequences of operation, and as-built documentation. Training shall include minimum four on-site sessions of four hours each with factory-trained instructors. The accompanying Section 230993 provides detailed sequences of operation for ground source heat pump systems, energy recovery ventilators, telecom room A/C units, water source heat pumps, exhaust fans, duct smoke detectors, emergency generators, and fuel oil systems with specific control logic and monitoring points required for each component.
