Salient Characteristics and Purchase Description

Title: Purchase of Brand-Name or Equal Items to APC Symmetra PX Batteries

Project Overview: This document outlines the requirements and procedures for replacing 48 (each) batteries in an APC Symmetra PX, including the proper disposal of the existing batteries in accordance with EPA guidelines.

1. Replacement Batteries Specifications: (Brand-name or Equal)

• Model: SYBTU1-PLP

• Type: Sealed Lead Acid Batteries (8 per module/unit)

• Voltage: 12V

• Capacity: 7.2Ah

• Quantity: 48

2. Supplier Requirements: (Brand-name or Equal)

• Battery enclosure does not need to be specific to APC, however must be equivalent/compatible with model SYBTU1-PLP.

• Batteries must be new, unused, and meet all the specified criteria.

• Supplier must provide proof of certification and compliance with relevant standards.

• Warranty: Minimum one year from the date of installation.

3. Installation Requirements:

• Installation must be performed by certified technicians.

• If possible, work should be done with zero downtime. If this is not doable, technicians must request for an outage to the 9th MSC project manager.

• The system should be powered down safely and isolated from the power source before beginning the replacement.

• Each battery must be tested individually before installation.

• Ensure correct polarity and secure connections to prevent short circuits or damage.

• Verify the proper operation of the APC Symmetra PX after battery replacement.

4. Disposal of Existing Batteries:

• Regulatory Compliance: Disposal must comply with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidelines for battery disposal.

• Disposal Method:

o Partner with an EPA-certified hazardous waste disposal company.

o Ensure the disposal company provides a certificate of proper disposal.

5. Environmental and Safety Considerations:

• Environmental Protection:

Attachment 0002 o Follow best practices to minimize environmental impact.

o Ensure no leakage or spillage of battery acid occurs during removal, transportation, or disposal.

• Safety Precautions:

o Technicians must wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and safety glasses.

o Use non-conductive tools to avoid short circuits.

o Handle batteries carefully to prevent physical damage and potential hazards.

6. Project Timeline:

• Preparation Phase: 1 week (sourcing batteries, coordinating with disposal company)

• Installation Phase: 1-2 days (actual replacement process)

• Post-Installation Testing: 1 day (verify system functionality)

7. Cost Considerations:

• Battery Purchase: Detailed quote from the supplier.

• Installation Labor: Estimate based on technician hourly rates.

8. Project Oversight:

• Regular updates should be provided to the project manager (9th MSC will provide this information upon award)

• A final report should be submitted detailing the installation and disposal process.

9. Work Location:

9th Mission Support Command 1557 Suehiro Road

BLDG 1557, RM 111
