About this file

This is a Performance Work Statement (PWS) section for vertical turbine pumps as part of a Water Intake project at Fort Thompson, South Dakota (Project No. MR00114). The specification establishes comprehensive requirements for the design, manufacturing, testing, installation, and maintenance of a complete vertical turbine pump system.

The contractor must design and deliver a packaged vertical turbine pump system for pumping lake water into an Ultrafiltration Treatment Plant. The system must deliver 833 gallons per minute at a differential head of 150 feet with water surface elevation at 1405 feet, and be rated for a minimum 25-year design life in heavy-duty applications. Pumps must operate at no greater than 1800 rpm, utilize stainless steel shafts and impellers balanced to ISO 1940-1 Grade G6.3, and incorporate non-reverse ratchet mechanisms for protection against reverse rotation. Efficiency must not be less than 80 percent at specified conditions. The system includes suction bells, impeller bowls, diffuser bowls, discharge elbows, guide bearings (product-lubricated elastomeric materials suitable for fresh water with silt), thrust bearings, packing glands or mechanical seals, and air release valves. The specification requires factory assembly and testing per HI ANSI/HI 14.6 standards with performance curves demonstrating capacity, head, brake horsepower, and efficiency verification. Installation must follow API RP 686 guidelines, and the contractor must provide special tools in a portable steel cabinet, spare parts including bearing and seal sets, Operation and Maintenance manuals, and a 2-year warranty covering defective workmanship, materials, design, and performance. Field testing includes dry/motor tests verifying non-reverse ratchet operation and wet tests under load for at least 2 hours with vibration and bearing temperature monitoring per HI 9.6.4.

2.4.13 Air Release Valve

Provide an air release valve (ARV) assembly for each of the vertical turbine pumps. Install each assembly at the top of the discharge column/head to vent air from the column when the pump is started and to break the vacuum when the pump is stopped. [**Am-1]

2.5 LUBRICATION SYSTEM

[*Am-1] Pump bearings must be open-lineshaft, product-lubricated by the pumped media. [**Am-1]

2.6 PAINTING

Perform painting in accordance with Section 09 90 00 PAINTS AND COATINGS [*Am-1] <text deleted> [**Am-1].

2.7 FACTORY ASSEMBLY

The pump must be assembled at the Contractor's selected manufacturer's plant to assure proper fitting and alignment of all parts. Tolerances cannot exceed those specified or shown on the the manufacturing drawings.

Check rotating elements for binding. The suction bell, impeller housing, diffuser, and the discharge elbow must be properly match marked and have their centerlines clearly marked on the outside of all flanges to facilitate erection and alignment in the field. Notify the Contracting Officer sufficiently in advance to permit a representative of the Contracting Officer to inspect and witness the pump assembly. Matchmark all parts disassembled for shipment.

2.8 BASEPLATE AND SUPPORTS

Design and proportion the soleplate and baseplate to support the entire pump assembly, the motor and the loads [*Am-1] <text deleted> [**Am-1] to which it may be subjected during operation. [*Am-1] <text deleted> [**Am-1]

2.9 TESTS, INSPECTIONS, AND VERIFICATIONS

2.9.1 Pump Testing

Test specified pumps in accordance with HI ANSI/HI 14.6. For all pumps include Performance testing as described in HI ANSI/HI 14.6. [*Am-1]The acceptance grade is 1U. [**Am-1]

2.9.2 Dynamic Analysis

[*Am-1] Perform standard lateral and torsional critical speed analysis for the pump/motor structure to ensure no natural frequencies occur within 25 percent above or below normal operating speed. [**Am-1]

[*Am-1]

2.9.3 Factory Performance Test

Determine the performance of the pump by a series of test points sufficient in number to develop a constant-speed curve over the operating range. Testing must verify capacity, head, brake horsepower, and efficiency. [**Am-1]

2.10 PUMP DRAINAGE

[*Am-1] Provide drain provisions for all applicable parts of the pump to eliminate trapped water above the wet well. [**Am-1]

2.11 CERTIFIED TEST REPORT

Submit Contractor's pump manufacturer certified completed test report stating the specified pumps meet HI ANSI/HI 14.6 after testing is complete.

PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 INSTALLATION

Install the soleplate and baseplate in accordance with API RP 686.

[*Am-1] Install the equipment specified under this section and related drive machinery in accordance with the approved Installation and Erection Instructions Manual. [**Am-1]

[*Am-1]

3.1.1 Operation and Maintenance Manuals

Submit Operation and Maintenance Instructions Manual containing complete information on operation, lubrication, routine and special maintenance, disassembly, repair, and trouble diagnostics for the pump and auxiliary units in accordance with Section 01 78 23 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE DATA.[**Am-1]

3.2 FIELD TESTS

After the pumping unit is installed and prior to start-up, completely clean the sump area of any accumulated construction debris. Once final cleaning of the sump area is completed, the area will be area reviewed by a representative of the Government. Correct any damage to the pumping units or related equipment during initial start-up due to foreign objects left in the sump areas.

[*Am-1] <text deleted> [**Am-1]

3.2.1 [*Am-1]Dry/Motor[**Am-1] Tests

Test [*Am-1]the motor and connections for proper rotation (bumping the motor) uncoupled from the pump shaft to ensure the non-reverse ratchet operates correctly and the pump will not be spun backward. Under no circumstances shall the pump be operated dry.[**Am-1] Submit field test results.

3.2.2 Wet Tests

Test each pump unit under load, at or near normal operating conditions, for at least 2 hours or as directed by the Contracting Officer[*Am-1].

Take [**Am-1] vibration and bearing temperatures in accordance with HI 9.6.4. Submit field test results. Without additional costs to the Government, make all changes and correct any errors. The Contracting Officer may waive or postpone the test if sufficient water is not available.
