Technical Capability/Contractor Responsibility Certification Statement Summary

This is a Technical Capability/Contractor Responsibility Certification Statement for solicitation number N4215826Q0022, requiring service rental of compressed air equipment from a vendor. The government seeks two (2) 800 cubic feet per minute (CFM) Grade D air compressors and two (2) 930 CFM minimum regenerative air dryer units. Contractors must certify that proposed equipment meets or exceeds all specified minimum technical requirements by completing a yes/no checklist and submitting it with their quote.

The air compressors must be oil-free, rotary screw design delivering Grade D air per CGA G-7.1 at 125 psig, equipped with electric-type moisture separators and capable of 24/7 operation at 460 VAC, 3-phase, 60HZ on a 400-amp circuit breaker. Units must feature gearbox casings designed to maintain vacuum on oil contents, fully automatic controls requiring monitoring only once every 24 hours, weather-resistant construction meeting NEMA Type 4 standards for outdoor salt water air exposure, 2-inch Male NPT inlet/outlet connections, and appropriate lifting attachments with rigging diagrams. The regenerative air dryers must handle at least 930 CFM at 125 psig with -65 degrees F dew point capability, operate on 110/120 VAC single-phase power, be self-contained and oil-free, run 24/7, feature fully automatic controls, utilize heatless twin-tower design with hygroscopic desiccant, and meet identical portability, weather resistance, lifting, and marking requirements. Both equipment types must comply with OSHA regulations, ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, include calibrated pressure gauges and sealed relief valves, and bear manufacturer specifications on metal plates attached to each unit.

TECHNICAL CAPABILITY/ CONTRACTOR RESPONSIBLITY

CERTIFICATION STATEMENT

In order to be considered for award, this must be completed and submitted with your quote in its entirety.

PURPOSE OF REQUEST: Service rental from vendor to provide two (2) 800 cubic feet per minute (CFM) Grade D Air Compressors, and two (2) 930 cfm minimum Regenerative Air Dryer Units

Solicitation Number: N4215826Q0022

Shall be provided with the following capabilities, features, and specifications:

YES NO

The air compressors shall provide at least 800 cubic feet a minute (CFM) at 125 psig and shall be of an oil free, rotary screw design delivering Grade “D” air per CGA G-7.1 or oil free air per ISO 8573-1 Class 0.

Each air compressor must have a moisture separator (electric type) after cooler.

Compressors must be of a rotary screw design. An oil flooded rotary screw design with attached oil separator is not acceptable.

The air compressors shall be electrically powered, suitable for 460 VAC, 3-phase, 60HZ, capable of running on a 400 amp circuit breaker.

The air compressors must be capable of running 24 hours/day, 7 days/week.

The compressors must have a gearbox casing designed to maintain a vacuum on its oil contents in order to prevent a potential of contamination of the air supply in the event of a seal failure.

The air compressors shall be equipped with fully automatic switching controls, alarms, and indicators so that the compressor packages require monitoring no more than once every 24 hours by operators after start-up.

Units will be in continuous use outdoors, and will be directly exposed to everyday weather and salt water air. All exposed components must be weather resistant. All components must meet or exceed NEMA Type 4 for outdoor use. It is the contractor’s responsibility to provide any protective coverings for the units.

Whip-check devices must be supplied with compressors.

(2) Grade D Air Compressors Manufacturer Name:

Part #:

Model #:

The air compressors shall be wholly contained in one container or skid per compressor. The container/skid shall be constructed to be portable, capable of being both transported by forklift and crane.

The air compressors shall comply with the applicable OSHA regulations.

The air compressors shall comply with the applicable ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.

Relief valves shall have intact wire seals on their adjustment caps and shall bear tags indicating the set point, testing activity and test date.

Pressure gauges shall be in calibration to manufacturer standards and shall bear labels showing calibration which will not expire during the contract period.

Power cable end fittings will be lugged and color coded to indicate proper phasing. See Appendix A of this section – “Interface Requirements for Rental Equipment Hook-up to NNSY Temporary Service” for proper electrical connections required.

The inlet and outlet of air compressors shall be 2” Male NPT. If units are not equipped with 2” Male NPT inlet/outlet connections, contractor shall provide and preinstall adapters as required at no cost to the government. See Appendix A of this section– “Interface Requirements for Rental Equipment Hook-up to NNSY Temporary Service” for proper mechanical connections required.

The equipment shall be outfitted with suitable attachments for overhead lifting.

Each lifting attachment shall be capable of supporting one half the gross weight of the equipment with a design factor of five to one based on ultimate strength.

Each lifting attachment shall be designed to accept a standard anchor shackle (Federal Specification RR-C-271D, type IVA) which is capable of supporting one half the gross weight of the equipment.

Design of the lifting attachments shall be such that the shackles are not side loaded.

Each lifting attachment shall be conspicuously marked in a contrasting color “Lift Here”. Letters shall have a minimum height of 1”.

The equipment shall be marked in a prominent location with the gross weight. Marking shall be upper case letters of a contrasting color, with a minimum height of 1”. Marking shall include the units (i.e. “pounds”, “long tons”, etc.).

The equipment shall be provided with a lifting sketch / rigging diagram.

The lifting sketch shall detail any specific requirements and / or configurations that must be met prior to lifting (i.e. “engage swing lock”, “Tilt mast back fully”, “Rotate lifting basket over side”, “Utilize 10’ minimum length slings”, “Spreader beam required”, etc.).

Shall be provided with the following capabilities, features, and specifications:

YES NO

Regenerative air dryer units shall be capable of handling at least 930 cubic feet a minute (CFM) at 125 psig. Regenerative air dryer units must be able to provide a dew point of -65 degrees F.

The regenerative air dryer units shall be electrically powered, suitable for 110/120 VAC, 1-phase, 60HZ. The dryers shall be self-contained so that the system is capable of producing dry air WITHOUT any additional utilities.
