SUMMARY OF WORK
PART 1 GENERAL
1.1 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
This section serves as an executive summary of all work to be performed as part of this contract. All contract requirements for the work summarized here are included elsewhere in the specifications.
1.1.1 System Description
There are currently four IR XF-75 Rotary Screw air compressors, three being water cooled and one being air cooled. The current compressors are rated for 315 CFM at 100 psi. The fourth air cooled compressor was installed in 2007 along with a backpressure tank and valve.
The air compressors provide compressed air to 14 receiver tanks, each having a capacity of 515 ft3. Including the 10" header pipe and receiver piping, the total storage capacity for the depressing air system is 9,095 ft3. The compressors are connected by a common header that supplies a recently installed backpressure tank. The back pressure tank is used to keep pressure at a minimum of 75 psi to prevent oil from moving downstream and was added to the system in 2007.
A header coming off the backpressure tank supplies receiver tanks 1, 2 &
3. All storage tanks are connected to a common 10" header, as a result storage tanks 1, 2 & 3 feed the remaining 11 tanks. Individual 10" lines are fed off the header and run to the individual units. Two pneumatically actuated valves (one 10" and one 2") located in the individual unit depressing air lines are opened to begin depressing the unit.
Depression level in the draft tube is controlled by two float switches located near the draft tube access hatch. On initial blowdown, when the draft tube water level depresses to the upper float, the 10" valve closes.
The 2" depressing air valve remains open until the water level reaches the lower float. When the draft tube water level reaches the upper float, the 2" valve opens until the level reaches the lower float. This is called a make-up air event.
1.1.2 Scope of work
The following is a list of the major items of work included in this Contract. All of the items listed here are described in greater detail throughout the rest of the technical sections. The work includes, but is not limited to:
a. Disconnect and turn over existing air compressors 1 and 2 to USACE.
b. Remove IR supply header for existing air compressors 1 and 2. Turn over the removed IR pipe and fittings to the Government. Remove existing 1/4 inch copper pressure sensing line to compressors.

m. Provide and install new 4" piping, supports, and isolation valves from the new accumulator tanks to new 10" header.
n. For existing accumulator tanks #1-10, remove the existing condensate drainage lines and replace with new condensate drainage lines with timed valves as shown on contract drawings. USACE to retain existing timed solenoid valve.
o. Furnish and install new 4" tap with ball valve on the 10" Depressing Air header near Unit 2.
p. Remove and replace 1/4" copper pressure sensing line from compressors.
q. Paint all new carbon steel exposed pipe. Insulate all cooling water pipe.
