About this file
This modification of solicitation N0010420RF009 from the Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command outlines requirements for the prerepair and repair of two VA class propulsor rotors. The contractor will be required to perform pre-repair inspections and documentation, remove existing coatings, conduct moisture removal procedures, replace bushings and hardware, repair surface defects, reapply coatings, conduct balancing, and arrange shipping for the rotors. Inspections will be performed according to Navy technical standards and data packages. Coatings must be applied by NACE-certified personnel and meet minimum dry film thickness requirements. The rotors must then undergo acoustic testing in a Navy tank. Repairs must be completed by May 2021 for the first rotor and February 2021 for the second, with final inspections conducted accordingly. Inspection reports and documentation must be submitted to the Navy for approval.

These repairs shall be roughened with 120 grit emery paper before application of the second coat of paint. All coatings inspections shall be performed by a Level 3 NACE Certified Coatings Inspector in accordance with reference (i). Upon completion, the NACE certified inspector shall provide written verification of successful coatings application to the vendor and NSWCPD Code 426.
22. Perform rotor balance following paint application. Note VA Class rotors do not have a tapered bore. Balancing operations require a vendor furnished balance adapter plate. The design of the adapter plate must be approved by NSWCPD Code 426. Note that the hub flange alignment pin hole plugs shall be installed during balancing operations. Remove the hub flange alignment pin hole plugs when balance is complete. A total of three balance runs shall be performed at the Top Dead Center (TDC) position as follows:
a. Perform one initial balance run.
b. Perform one balance run following balance weight installation.
c. Remove the rotor from balance machine. Re-install rotor on the balance machine and perform an additional balance run.
The first two balance runs shall be submitted as the initial and final data. The third balance run shall be provided for information only.
23. Provide support for acoustic tank testing per Advanced Engineering Consultants (AEC)
Drawing ME-1, NAVSEA TEST TANK. Acoustic test tank is provided as GFP. Support includes but is not limited to the following:
g. Assembly of Navy test tank, liner, plumbing connections. The test tank is 24 feet in diameter and 7 feet tall. A CONFIDENTIAL space of 30 feet in diameter is recommended to accommodate equipment and tank access. The vendor shall provide a stairway to gain access to the tank.
h. Purchase and/or rental of water pump, filter, and heating and cooling equipment.
i. Fill tank (approx. 15,000-20,000 gallons).
j. Install AM tailcone hole plugs prior to the acoustic test process.
k. Provide miscellaneous (i.e. crane) support to Navy Acoustic Test Personnel during testing.
l. Drain and disassemble tank.
24. Paint balance weights and perform touch up painting.
25. Following complete paint application and balancing, perform final VTI of all hydrodynamic painted surfaces to ensure they conform to the coatings requirements.
26. The following actions apply to the rotor accessories:
a. The twenty one (21) AM tailcone attachment hole plugs shall be provided unpainted and not installed.
b. The eight (8) FWD hub packaging hole plugs shall be provided blasted and primed in accordance with reference (i). FWD hub packaging hole plugs shall not be installed.
c. The three (3) Hub flange pin hole plugs shall be provided with the heads blasted and primed in accordance with reference (i). Hub flange pin hole plugs shall be provided in a separate shipping container.
d. The four (4) FWD lifting hole plugs shall be provided with the heads blasted and primed in accordance with reference (i). FWD lifting hole plugs shall be installed.
e. Provide a shipping container for rotor accessories in accordance with reference (n).
Shipping direction will be provided via separate correspondence.
27. Prepare the rotor for transit in accordance with references (d) and (l). Note that strippable coating shall not be applied. The AC/AF preservation paint must be cured prior to packaging in accordance with the applicable dry to touch and dry to handle times. The cured paint film shall resist a thumb deformation test (similar to ASTM D1640, paragraph 7.7.1) before packaging can begin.
28. Provide support to load the rotor and strongback assembly onto shipping trailer in accordance with references (l) and (m).
The following GFP shall be used for Item 0004AB:
7. PROPVAL Analysis program for SSN 774 Class Rotor
8. Navy Acoustic Test Tank
9. SSN 774 lifting padeyes
10. Rotor shipping strongback
11. Rotor Flange inspection gage
12. Rotor Hub Drill Jig for AM Tailcone Holes
SHIPPING: The rotor shall be shipped to the following address:
DLA-Distribution Pearl Harbor/ZOM 667 Safeguard St Building 167-1/DMI Pearl Harbor HI 96860.
