Question #7

SPECIFICATION ITEM NO.: __941___________

PARAGRAPH / SECTION NO:___3.2.1_________________

TITLE: Freshwater (closed loop) Stern Tube Lubrication System

QUESTION:

This item was amended to use a different drawing for reference 2.1.1, however, the verbiage in the specification no longer seems to match the reference and we cannot determine what material is required. For example, para 3.2.1.a says that the Wartsila parts kit contains all the electrical components in the bill of materials list on ref 2.1.1 sheet 14 but the list of electrical material is on page 1 and there is no bill of materials at all on page 14. Para 3.2.1.b says another Wartsila kit contains various piping components in the BOM on sheet 6 but sheet 6 contains only a list of label plates. Piping components are listed on page 18 but the numbers in the spec do not correspond to those in the BOM (spec says fittings through F-64 are included but the BOM ends at F-61). Paragraphs c and d are equally confusing. Para c refers to a partial list of unidentified material which may or may not be included in the Wartsila kit (we believe this is actually supposed to be structural material as it was previously listed on page 1 but, again, the numbers do not match). Paragraph d refers to the list of label plates on page 6 but the material seems to be pipe. Please clarify the material required for this item.

ANSWER:

Note: This parts kit contains all the electrical closed loop components in the bill of materials listed on reference 2.1.1 sheet 1/2. Items 1-67,

b. Wartsila Parts Kit: WDI002115-002 –QTY 1 Kit Note: This parts kit contains the following parts listed in the bill of materials on reference 2.1.1 sheet 18: V-1 through V-9 and F1 through 61.
