5 General Description of Work
This Statement of Work details the addition and connection points/setups of a portable HPU to the hydraulics system of the Lockport Lock. The new HPU will be used on the upstream lift gates to move the hydraulic cylinder during maintenance operations to disconnect the crosshead from the piston or move the piston without the crosshead connected, which supports the gate cables while the main hydraulic pump/system is not in use. The necessary components and setup for the HPU will be installed to the hydraulics system at both sides of the upstream lift gates.
Hydraulic operating pressure 1500-2000 psi, ~250 gallon hydraulic cylinder, bore 20.86 in diameter, rod 8.66 in diameter, stroke 170 in., cycle time 90-120 seconds (per the operators), 100 HP pump, 750 gallon reservoir. This hydraulic system is the same on both sides of the Lock (East and West) for both sets of gates.
Drawings of the current hydraulic system are provided in the Attachments.
Provide submittals for Government approval on the proposed new HPU, equipment, and any other components as listed in Section 19 prior to any purchases.
Must include a 5-year parts warranty.
Follow all industry, manufactures, local, State and Federal codes, rules, regulations, and directions for all work performed.

5.1 Base Bid Item(s)
5.1.1 Base Bid Item 1 –Supply One (1) Portable HPU and Install Four (4) Hydraulic System Setups
Contractor will supply one (1) new portable HPU to be used to move the hydraulic cylinder during maintenance operations. The contractor will be responsible for providing and installing four (4) hydraulic connection points/setups to the existing hydraulic system for supporting the HPU at the East and West Machinery Houses, two houses per side. The HPU and setups must be capable of moving the piston rod in the cylinders to detach the crosshead during maintenance.
The contractor is responsible for any valves, connections, piping, and other component installation necessary for the connection of the HPU to the system. Any piping or valves, hardware, connections, etc. must all be stainless steel. The HPU must have a remote control. The HPU must be capable of throttling, holding pressure when stopping the movement of the cylinder, and be able to raise and lower. The HPU must run off electrical power with the Lock having 480v 3-Phase with a 100A breaker available or 240v 3-Phase with a 60A breaker available and the electrical connections with the existing connections in place at the Lock. The HPU and the connection to the hydraulic system must be quick disconnects with the contractor also supplying the hosing and connections necessary to run between the HPU and connection points. The HPU must be portable and capable of being moved between East and West houses.
The HPU and setups must be compatible with the current hydraulic oil being used, CITGO Hydurance AW68. The contractor is responsible for supplying hoses to reach the setup location points while the HPU is kept at ground level or near the entrance points of the houses (approximately at least 100 foot of hose necessary) for the supply, return, and the remote controls.
The contractor must follow UFGS language including below but not limited to:
Install hydraulic components in accordance with the manufacturer's written instructions and under the direction of the hydraulics technician. Install complete units or assemblies without disassembly. Provide necessary supports for all equipment or components. Mount all valves and other fluid control devices where required. Mark components to indicate pertinent operational requirements, warnings, and limitations such as maximum allowable operating pressure, temperature, velocity, range of adjustment, flow capacity, stroke, direction of flow, rotation or motion, safety precautions, and materials compatibility. The markings must be by stamping or embossing on the component or on an attached plate or tag which must, barring mutilation, remain affixed and legible for the life of the component.
Securely mount and anchor hydraulic pipe and tubing to structural members. Locate supports and anchors as indicated.
Provide guards at all locations where the structure does not provide protection for the lines from damage due to movement of personnel and equipment. Do not remove seals from pipe and tubing assemblies or from ports on components until the lines are ready for connection. Take provisions, including but not limited to providing portable screens and shelters, to minimize the entrance of abrasives, dirt, metal chips, and other foreign materials into the hydraulic system through open ends of lines and ports of components.
Install flexible conductors in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. Exercise special care to avoid imparting any twist in the conductors during tightening of fittings. Provide and locate supports to prevent conductors from contacting and chafing against fixed members. Provide clamps and straps used to support hoses with soft resilient sleeves, linings or bushings to prevent cutting and abrading of the hose. Arrange the routing of flexible hoses to preclude imparting a twist in the hose due to relative motion between the components to which the hose is connected.
Ensure the minimum bend radius of the hose is not less than that recommended for the particular hose size and maximum system operating pressure. Provide heat shields or insulating jackets where hose passes close to heated surfaces.
Cut tubing square using tube cutters specifically designed for the material to be cut. The use of hacksaws or other chip-producing equipment will not be permitted. Remove burrs completely after the tubing is cut and chamfer the inside diameter of the tube slightly. After the cutting and deburring operations, remove all metal fragments from the tubing interior and from sealing surfaces. Use tube benders designed and recommended by the manufacturer for bending stainless steel tubing of the wall thicknesses and sizes specified for the installation. Make bends accurately to the proper angle so that fittings align properly and mate without application of force or springing of the tube or fitting and ensure alignment is true enough so that threads may be engaged and hand turned no less than three turns. Ensure bends are completely free from wrinkling, and flattening does not exceed 5 percent of the outside diameter. Provide tube benders with necessary radius blocks, slide blocks, and special close radius blocks, as required to adapt the bending tools to the requirements of the work. Where necessary to ensure properly fabricated bends, use internal mandrels of proper diameter for the size and wall thickness of the tubing.
Provide hydraulic pipe weldments where required.
Provide services of a hydraulics technician to coordinate and supervise the installation, adjustments, tests, and field instructions for the hydraulic system. Ensure the hydraulics technician has at least 3 years of current experience in the installation and operation of similar systems.
This bid item includes mobilization and demobilization. Include all costs to mobilize all personnel, equipment, supplies, tools, testing equipment, etc. to the worksite and demobilize upon completion of all awarded base and optional items.
Mobilization and demobilization includes any costs associated with proper handling, storage, and disposal of waste such as demolished/removed parts unless separately itemized.
