Submersible Electric Motor/Pump: Replacement parts shall be a Hitachi Dual Submersible Motor, heavy duty canned, dual voltage type of NEMA design, 3450 RPM. The outside diameter of the unit shall not exceed six inches and connected to a drop pipe that extends beyond the top of the well casing and capable of producing a minimum yield of 500 gallons per minute. The motor shall be capable of continuous operation under water at the specified conditions outlined above.

A suitable thrust bearing shall be incorporated in the lower end of the motor adequate to receive the entire hydraulic thrust load of the pump unit plus the weight of the rotating parts regardless of rotation. The motor shall be 15 HP, have a 1.15 service factor and suitable for use on 460/230 volt, three phase, 60 Hz electrical service. The motor/pump unit shall be positioned within 15’ to 20’ of well bottom.

The motor leads shall be of sufficient length so that they may be spliced above the bowl assembly and the leads shall be protected by a type 304 stainless steel cable guard held in place with stainless steel banding. As the motor leads exit the top of the cable guard it shall be properly protected to prevent damaging or cutting the lead by the cable guard material.

B. ELECTRICAL REPAIRS

Electrical Service Box: The service panel box shall be Square D Well Guard Class 8940 of NEMA Type 3R and will be connected to the electrical service through a visible blade, fused, disconnect switch suitable for irrigation purposes. The motor starter should be a NEMA size 2 (Square D 8502SDO2) with adjustable instantaneous overcurrent protection (Square D Motor Logic Class 9065 Type SS210). The box will have a lightning arresting device installed according to NEC Article 250 Section III and shall be grounded according to NEC Article 675.

The electrical service panel box shall be mounted on an insect and decay resistant (treated) post and have a weather head suited for line connection by the power association. Mounting and post dimensions shall comply with regulations established by Twin County Electric Power Association. Panel boxes shall not be mounted to utility poles owned by the power association.

Cable: Cable shall be sized to limit the voltage drop to no more than 5%. The cable shall have three separate conductors and a ground and shall be included in a single continuous jacketed assembly. The cable should be the length of the discharge pipe plus fifteen feet to extend from the surface plate to the electrical controller. The cable should be adequately secured to the discharge pipe by plastic ties, or other non metallic means, at 10 foot intervals.

C. REPAIR OR REPLACE POND FILL LINES AND BUTTERFLY VALVES

Pipe and Connectors: In no event shall underground pond fill piping be repaired using less than 8 inch Plastic Irrigation Pipe (PIP). A metal or PVC pond valve capable of controlling flow must be secured on the outflow of each fill line. All PVC pipe must be assembled utilizing PVC cleaner and PVC pipe glue. If the disconnection of underground piping is required during well repair or new well installation, the Contractor shall provide all labor, equipment, and supplies to reconnect the piping to the new or repaired well head.

D. REPAIR OR REPLACE POND DRAIN PIPES AND BUTTERFLY VALVES

Pipe and Connectors: In no event shall pond drain piping be replaced using less than 10” PIP.

Each drain pipe shall extend through the levee and approximately 10’ – 15’ on either side of the levee depending on length of pipe being removed. The exterior end of the pipe shall be fitted with a drain T and adjustable valve capable of controlling flow. The drain T shall also be fitted with a stand pipe cut to the length necessary to hold no more than 24” of water on the interior of each pond. The Contractor may be required to fit a slotted pipe on the interior end of the pipe to prevent large debris from clogging the drain pipe but allowing small trash to flow freely.

E. PUMP TESTS AND REPORTS: The Contractor shall make final electrical connections to control panels and if required, the Contractor shall contact the local power association and have service connected upon replacement or installation of new well/pump/motor.
