- Description
- The U.S. Maritime Administration intends to solicit Alfa Laval Inc., 955 Mearns Road, Warminster, PA, 18974 on a sole source basis for the replacement of two HFO Purifier EPC 30 controls and MARSAT I displays with a new Alfa Laval EPC 400 controls/display. The two existing systems onboard the T.S. STATE OF MAINE is an Alfa Laval type FOPX and is currently being controlled by Alfa Laval EPC 30 controls and MARSAT I displays and they are no longer supportable. The old existing controls will be removed and retained by the vessel for use as spares for the remaining DFM purifier, Alfa Laval type WHPX, and main engine oil purifiers which are using the EPC 30 controls. In addition, the existing two Robert Shaw steam regulating valves for the HFO purifier heaters are not operational and are being by-passed. It is also the intent of this item to replace these two steam valve with two Alfa Laval type 57878-07 valves to be controlled by the EPC-400 controls. (The ship's crew provided oil heater flow rates of 20gpm oil and 450 lb/hr steam which converts to 4543 l/hr old and 204 kg/hr steam resulting in a selection of the DN20/0 valve which is part number 57878-07). It is the intent to have all required parts delivered to the T.S. STATE OF MAINE, berthed at the Maine Maritime Academy, Pleasant Street, Castine, ME 04220, for the crew to install in accordance with Alfa Laval's bulletin instructions entitled Preparation Requirements for Upgrading to an EPC-41 and/or EPC-400. An Alfa Laval Technical Representative shall provide services to make the final wiring hook-ups and run installation tests. No other manufacturer makes this specific component, and the government does not possess the technical data necessary to permit another manufacturer to develop a comparable component.
