SECTION 1

1.0 SCOPE

The current Dust Collection System and Hopper in Building 150 requires immediate replacement due to significant deterioration. The Power Panel outside of the building requires relocation. The dust collector unit is critical to the Preservation, Packaging, Packing & Marking (PPP&M) mission and if there is a failure, a major work stoppage would occur. The original manufacturer is no longer in business so spare parts are not an available option.

The intention of this project is to replace the existing Dust Collection System with a new/current technology commercially-available system, for building 150 at DLA Cherry Point. This includes the motor, blower, and hopper cyclone separator along with the Dust Collection System unit. This specification covers the necessary management, supervision, tools, supplies, system, incidental work, materials, transportation, engineering, manufacturing, equipment, components, power, permits, staff, and labor to install a new dust collection system, remove the existing old system, and move/relocate the outside power panel that is currently located outside to inside of the building.

SCOPE OF WORK TO BE PERFORMED

Contractor shall be responsible for:

a. Install an Upgrade Dust Collection System and Hopper -Cyclone Separator with a commercial comparable current technology system replacement.

b. Relocate the current power panel outside the building, inside of the building. Repair the exterior wall after the panel is relocated. The intent is to locate the electrical panel inside, but the station needs a button outside for emergency shut downs in case there is a problem. On weekends, station personnel cannot get inside the warehouse to shut it down. When the panel is removed, the contractor needs to be responsible for any building siding repairs under the outside panel.

c. Demolition and offsite removal of existing systems - Dust Collection & Hopper.

d. Submit System Specifications prior to purchase and install, for review and approval.

e. Must meet existing power requirements.

f. Must meet Air Quality requirements.

g. Must meet Noise Quality requirements.

h. Must meet Fire Protection requirements to prevent explosion or fire from wood particles.

i. The hopper design should not have or allow a built up of accumulation of watery condensation in saw dust creating clogs.

j. The hopper should not release dust particles into the air environment or the grounds area.

k. Determine, verify, (IF)- some or if any of the existing overhead suction pipes currently connected to the saws can be discontinued with the use with the new system. Identify the pipes by tagging them with a safety orange marking, this denoting the piping will be with NOT be needed for the system upgrade.

l. When it is determined that some of the existing pipes can be discontinued. The suction pipes must be removed since they are not needed for the upgraded system.

m. The Contractor is fully responsible to ensure that the new system is fully functional upon the completion of the design and implementation.

n. Taking measurements of the footprint to verify space and square footage. A drawing is provided for review, but verification of the measurements of the contractor are required for calculations.

o. Submit final as built drawings of the new system and power panel in AutoCad format. The drawing should show the upgraded equipment system. Drawing details must include dimensions, equipment notation, title-block, etc.. The drawing should include equipment locations/diameter of each vent piping pick-up point, as well as the dimensions of the pick-up points to the ventilation lines and all vent piping runs utilized within this wood shop/dust collection system. The drawing will also show the location of all slide gates.

p. The contractor should re-use the existing foundation system if possible.

All utilities shall be shown on the drawing, to include but not limited to, compressed air and electrical service. "As-Built" drawings shall be required at the end of the project, reflecting all the updates and settings/readings.

1.1 OTHER DUST COLLECTION REQUIREMENTS

a. The type of dust collector are they looking for as it pertains to “New, current technology” is a vague definition as there are several forms of dust collection systems on the market.

20. The Contracting opportunity is to be in contact with experts in the industry that could provide the necessary guidance, information and system abilities that would address the current need. The current system is over 30 years old and there is no existing documents that detail the type of system that is currently on hand.

The intention of the project is to replace/upgrade the existing system. We are not familiar with the latest technology that is in use currently in industry. From the recent site visit opportunity contractor were invited to look at the current system to determine what the possible options are. Please provide a system that would accommodate the need outlined in the Statement of Work.

b. The system is to be a permanently mounted centralized system serving multiple operations simultaneously, the system must be mounted in the roof of the space of the designated area.

c. The material being collected, are wood particles from various species of wood.

d. The load being placed on the collector, is a constant operation up too 16 hours a day as a intermittent fashion. This is dependent upon the workload.

e. There a noise requirement, is referenced in the SOW- 3.1.8

f. The color requirement for the system, the upgrade should be the same as the current system.

g. The height restriction of the system must not exceed 40’. It is the current approved height. 40’

h. The desired discharge receptacle that is to be used must be a debris removal hopper container for access/removal by front loader trash truck as exist today..

Start on-site work - Contractor shall provide a detailed schedule of work to be conducted on this project. Once the project has begun, the Contractor shall update their schedule weekly.
