The Government requires one (1) crane meeting CMAA Class C specifications with a 20-foot span, 50-foot length, and 5-ton capacity. The crane must be equipped with a 460-volt, 3-phase motor, variable frequency drive (VFD) controls for bridge traversing (8-80 feet per minute), trolley traversing (13-80 feet per minute), and hoist speeds (2-11 feet per minute).
