About this file
This document is a Minimum Salient Characteristics Summary that establishes baseline technical specifications for a high-pressure breathing air compressor system procurement, with BAUER Compressors identified as the benchmark standard or approved equal.
The required system encompasses eight integrated components: (SC01) a four-stage, air-cooled compressor block rated for minimum continuous operating pressure of 6,000 PSI with a minimum charging rate of 13.0 SCFM to enable rapid recharge cycles; (SC02) a three-position containment fill station certified to NFPA 1901 standards accommodating SCBA and SCUBA cylinders up to 31 inches in length with simultaneous dual and tri-fill capability for operator blast protection; (SC03) four ASME-certified 6,000 PSI air storage cylinders securely mounted in an integrated rear rack assembly unified with the compressor frame to provide high-volume cascade storage; (SC04) a multi-stage breathing air purification system producing air compliant with CGA Grade E and NFPA 1989 standards, equipped with real-time Carbon Monoxide and Hydrogen Sulfide gas monitors featuring visual and audible fault alarms; (SC05) an Industrial Programmable Logic Controller with minimum 7.0-inch color touchscreen HMI, automatic condensate drain system, and automatic safety shutdown for low oil pressure, high temperature, and over-pressurization; (SC06) a heavy-duty sound-attenuated acoustic cabinet enclosure with an integrated 100-foot high-pressure hose on heavy-duty reel and external/remote fill port for refilling mobile apparatus; (SC07) maximum exterior dimensions not exceeding 101" L × 38" W × 78" H with fully assembled operational weight between 4,350 and 4,550 lbs to ensure fitment onto existing concrete floor pads; and (SC08) turnkey services including site survey, delivery, rigging, physical anchoring, utility tie-ins, independent certified air sample analysis, legacy unit deinstallation/disposal, and operator training.
