1.0 SCOPE

This specification describes the requirements for the procurement of a Fire and Smoke Detection System with technical documentation and supporting equipment for each of the 225’ WLB Class Cutters (9 units) and 1 system for the 327 WIX EAGLE Cutter. The purpose of the Fire and Smoke Detection System is to alert the ship’s crew to the presence of any fire or smoke aboard the Cutter. The system shall be addressable and consist of a control unit, detection devices and alarming devices. This specification DOES NOT include installation of the equipment by the Vendor, but DOES include on-site technical support by the Vendor to ensure that the equipment is installed and functions correctly.

1.1 225’ WLB Cutters

There are two classes (A and B) of 225’ WLB Cutters. These classes have slight variations in general arrangement which may affect the layout of the Fire and Smoke Detection System. To address these variations, separate system designs, component quantities and deliverables will be generated for the A class cutters and the B class cutters (see section 3.3.1).

1.2 USCGC EAGLE

The requirements for the EAGLE Fire and Smoke Detection System differ from the requirements of the 225’ cutters. The EAGLE has a different compartment layout than the 225’ cutters.

Additionally, the EAGLE does not require an interface to the cutter’s existing control system.

These variations are identified throughout this specification.
