SPECIFICATIONS

SPECIFICATIONS FOR

THRUST BEARING OIL COOLER REHABILITATION

MAIN UNITS 1-16 WITH GE THRUST BEARINGS

LOCATED AT THE JOHN DAY DAM

GENERAL

This specification is intended to define materials and services required to rehabilitate heat exchangers, which are used to cool thrust-bearing oil in hydroelectric turbine generators. River water runs through the tubes, which are immersed in a bath of oil. Each cooler is comprised of two semi circular halves. Each half is constructed of a frame supporting 24 finned tubes with a supply/discharge manifold on one end and a return header on the other end. All tubing, with cooling fins, must be replaced due to wall thinning and leakage caused by wear and/or corrosion.

This will be a Firm Fixed Price Supply Contract. , base plus three option year contract. One (1) set will be procured in the base year with four (4) sets optional, and up to nine (9) potential sets could be procured in the out years. One

(1) set shall be issued at contract award date with the second (2nd) set, an optional item, to be issued unilaterally at the Government’s discretion within 60 days of contract award. If the Government exercises the optional item, the contract delivery period may be extended by mutual agreement between the Government and the Contractor.

TUBING

The replacement tubing shall be made of 90/10 CuNi with a minimum wall thickness of 0.049” (existing) to a maximum of 0.065”. Tubing OD shall be 1.00”. The tubes are 2 different lengths and radii of 12 tubes each (for each half). Approximate lengths are: inner 17’ 1-3/8” and outer 17’ 9-5/8”. Approximate radii to tube centerline are:

inner 6’ 3” and outer 6’ 6”.

The tubing shall be finned, with eight 7 to 9 fins per inch. The fins shall be copper or aluminum and shall be soldered to the tubes, or extruded “L” shaped fins that are spiral wound on the tubing under tension. The fin outside diameter shall be 1.875” to 2.00”. Fin thickness shall be a minimum of 0.012” to a maximum of 0.016”. Damage to the fins, such as bending and separation from the tubing, may occur when the tubes are threaded into the frame. Not more than 1% noticeable fin damage is allowed in the finished cooler. Manufacturer’s specifications of the proposed finned tubing shall be submitted as part of the bid.

MANIFOLDS

A new gasket shall be installed on each head. The gasket shall be a semi-rigid non-asbestos type that is formulated for both oil and water service. The gasket shall be installed using Permatex #2 sealant. Gasket materials shall be trimmed flush with the periphery of the head and tube sheet.

HARDWARE

All damaged hardware shall be replaced with like materials. If replaced, the bolts shall meet ASTM A325, and washers shall meet ASTM F436. Replacement hardware shall be plated to resist corrosion. An anti-seize compound shall be used on all threaded connections.

CLEANLINESS

The coolers shall be delivered in clean condition so that no cleaning is necessary prior to installation. No foreign matter shall be visible on the coolers.

TESTING

Each completed cooler shall receive a hydrostatic pressure test at 50 psi. This pressure must hold for a minimum of one hour. Written documentation of test shall be provided. At the discretion of the Government, a Corps representative may request to inspect the on-going work or testing of the coolers. The contractor shall be located within 400 miles of the Portland Oregon area to accommodate this need for possible inspections.

PACKAGING AND SHIPPING

The contractor shall be responsible for providing transportation to and from The John Day Dam Powerhouse east of Rufus, Oregon. The cooler halves will be picked up in Government-provided shipping crates. Each crate measures 14’ long by 5.5’ wide by 4.5’ high and weighs approximately 2,200 lbs including a cooler half. The two crates may be stacked. The contractor shall repack completed coolers for shipment to the government in the provided crates and to insure adequate protection from damage in transit, and shall be responsible for and make good any or all damage to either coolers or shipping crates that may occur prior to acceptance by the government at the specified delivery point. All shipments are FOB destination. Warehouse hours are Monday thru Thursday; 0700-1600 hours. Any other transportation arrangements shall be made prior to transportation departure and with written approval from the Contracting Officer’s Representative.
