Technical Capabilities Statement

Two Grade D Breathing Air Compressors

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

YES NO

Each air compressor 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 an oil free rotary screw design. An oil flooded rotary screw design with attached oil separator is not acceptable.

Compressors must be a fixed speed design. A variable speed design 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 package requires monitoring no more than once every 24 hours by operators after start-up

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.

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

The inlet and outlet of each air compressor shall be 2” Male NPT. If unit is not equipped with 2” Male NPT inlet/outlet connections, contractor shall provide and preinstall adapters as required at no cost to the government.

The air compressors shall have the (1) air capacity, (2) minimum/maximum supply pressure, (3) minimum/maximum operating temperature, and (4) the dew point range stamped on a metal plate attached to the equipment. Each major component of the system shall have the manufacturer's name and the manufacturer's serial number stamped on a metal plate attached to the component. No metal stamping is permitted on any surface subjected to high stresses in service, except

(Insert Initial/Date) hereby certifies the equipment/services proposed meet or exceed all Government Minimum

Specifications.

(Insert Initial/Date) hereby certified the equipment/services proposed meet or exceed the Government Minimum

Specifications with the following deviation/exceptions

(Provide separately detailed explanation for each SOW association) as permitted by the applicable portions of the ASME Boiler and

Pressure Vessel Code.

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.).

Provide 24 hour a day, seven-day a week on-call repair service during the rental period at no additional charge.
