b. The design, fabrication, and installation requirements shall follow that described by the hydraulic dynamometer manufacturer, Kahn Industries Inc. The installation requirements must be obtained directly from Kahn

Industries Inc. Facility design requirements shall meet all applicable Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) requirements.

The Civil Engineering Division at Fort Eustis, Virginia may inspect after completion of construction.

c. Installation of the desired equipment requires the construction of load appropriate concrete slabs to support the cooling/processing plant, test cell and an attached enclosed build-up/work area. Additionally, this construction shall include sizing and running of all electrical requirements from a Dominion Power™ supplied power transformer located approximately 180 feet away. Davis-Bacon Act labor standards apply to all aspects of the site construction.

d. The movable or collapsible test cell structure must be large enough to allow a minimum of three feet of working access around all sides of the engine test stand for the removal and installation of the dynamometer test cart.

e. The Kahn™ Model 406-040-008 hydraulic dynamometer includes a rack mounted digital control unit that must be installed inside the existing control room for run cell operation.

f. The new system shall provide water tight enclosed/covered below ground level access for running data acquisition cabling and hardware to be attached to test engines from the existing control center. This enclosure must be sized/designed to allow equipment, such as a forklift, unobstructed access to drive over it.

g. The build-up/work area shall be sized to house the dynamometer support equipment and provide one roll-up door, one access door, multiple electrical wall outlets, and wall-mounted switch controlled overhead lighting.

3. Installation conditions:

a. The supplied system shall include detailed operation manual(s) with block diagrams and layouts.

b. The Aviation Development Directorate-Eustis (ADD-E) shall provide access to existing test cell equipment for purposes of design and to complete installation.
