Responses shall reference Request for Quotations No. DE-RQ26-05NT500910 the U.S. Department of Energy, National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), Pittsburgh, PA intends to purchase the following: Two (2) identical air compressors systems each consisting of one (1) Knox Western Model Eagle 4245 or equivalent and one (1) Gardner Denver Electra-Saver Model SAV-350 Rotary Screw Compressor or equivalent. The two compressors must meet the following specifications: U.S. DOE NETL Air Compressor System Specification A. SCOPE The following specifications shall provide the minimum requirements for the fabrication and delivery of two identical air compressors systems each consisting of one (1) Knox Western Model Eagle 4245 or equivalent and one (1) Gardner Denver Electra-Saver Model SAV-350 Rotary Screw Compressor or equivalent to the Morgantown, West Virginia site of the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL-MGN). The supplier shall be responsible for the purchase, fabrication, and assembly of the necessary components needed to build the two compressor systems described in this specification. B. DESIGN CONDITIONS Each compression system, two total, shall be capable of functioning under or producing the following operating conditions: 1. Gas type - air 2. Gas suction pressure - atmospheric (14.7 Psia) 3. Gas suction temperature - 90 degrees Fahrenheit 4. Area Classification - indoor, non hazardous 5. Compressor system output ??? 100,000 Standard Cubic Feet per Hour (SCFH) 6. Gas discharge pressure - 700 psig 7. Interstage temperature - less than or equal to 100 degrees Fahrenheit 8. Design elevation - 1000 feet above sea level C. COMPRESSOR SPECIFICATIONS Each system, two total, shall be comprised of a Gardner Denver Electra Saver Model SAV 350 , or equivalent, rotary screw compressor feeding a Knox Western Eagle 4245, or equivalent, balanced opposed piston compressor. Specifications shall be as follows: 1. Each compressor shall utilize standard 4160 or 480 volt electrical power. 2. Both compressors associated with each compression system shall be skid mounted such that the amount of time required for installation of the units once received at NETL is minimized. The skid shall accommodate, at a minimum, the necessary compressor assembly, motors, cooling system, interconnecting piping, pressure vessels and associated control systems. 3. The skid utilized for the Eagle 4245 shall not exceed twelve feet in length by eight feet in width. The bolt pattern for mounting the skid to the existing NETL vibration isolation pad shall be specified by NETL once the contract is awarded. 4. All skids shall include a means for hoisting. 5. Motor starters for all units will be provided by NETL. 6. The Eagle 4245 units shall utilize process water for cooling. The location and size of the feed and return connections shall be reviewed and approved by NETL. 7. Pressure vessels and piping shall be designed and inspected in accordance with applicable American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) codes and standards. 8. Structural components shall be designed and inspected in accordance with applicable American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) codes and standards. 9. Welding shall be performed in accordance with applicable American Welding Society (AWS) codes and standards 10. Electrical components shall be designed and inspected in accordance with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) code 70. 11. The vendor shall provide the necessary supporting design and inspection documentation per ASME, AISC and AWS. 12. The skid, compressor assembly, and pressure vessels shall be painted. Paint specifications shall be reviewed and approved by NETL. D. DESIGN REVIEWS Design reviews shall be held upon contract award and at the 15%, 50%, and 100% detailed design phase. 1. 15% detailed design phase shall be defined as the milestone when the contractor has collected sufficient detailed system requirements from NETL, has determined which codes and standards will be used to complete the design and has performed preliminary calculations to prove that the design of the system is feasible. Approval to proceed will be required from NETL. 2. 50% detailed design phase shall be defined as the milestone when the contractor has completed the detailed design calculations for the system and has developed draft documents and drawings for review. Approval to proceed will be required from NETL. 3. 100% detailed design phase shall be defined as the milestone when the contractor has finalized and NETL has approved all design activities and documents for the system. E. DOCUMENT SUBMITTALS The supplier shall be responsible for delivering all of the following forms of documentation to the government: 1. Documents: Welder certifications, welding procedures, pressure vessel code stamp certifications - 1 set of each shall be submitted to the government for review prior to beginning fabrication of the compressor. Pressure vessel test reports - 1 set for each pressure vessel test. 2. Drawings: Complete general arrangement, piping and instrumentation, electrical - 3 sets of each shall be submitted to the government for approval. 3. Operations and Maintenance manuals - 3 sets 4. As built, recommended spare parts, and special tools lists - 1 set F. ON-SITE GOVERNMENT INSPECTION The government shall perform, at a minimum and prior to delivery, one on-site inspection of the assembled compressor packages. The inspection may include, but is not limited to, the review of employee welding certifications and procedures, review of pressure vessel code stamp documentation, start-up and shutdown of the compressor, and control system verification and functionality tests. Other pre-arranged government inspections may be performed during the course of the contract. DELIVERY: FOB Destination is required (all freight included). The provisions at 52.212-2 Evaluation ???
