A USMC has a continuing need for an integrated system that includes a diesel engine-generator set, Environmental Control Unit (ECU), and off-road capable trailer, capable of sustained operation in temperatures ranging from -20 degrees F to +131 degrees F. Additional stowage space for other missions equipment on the trailer is desired. The diesel/JP-8 fueled, Tier 4 rated engine-generator set shall provide 20 kilowatts (kW) minimum, up to 30 kW (desired) of 208 VAC, 3-phase, 60 Hz electrical power over and above power consumed by the ECU. The ECU, with flexible insulated ducts attached, shall be able to provide 100,000 - 120,000 BTU/hr of air conditioning as measured using ASHRAE 37-2005 at the following conditions:125F ambient, 90F DB, 75F WB indoor. The system should provide 60,000 BTU/hr of heating capacity when rated ! using ANSI/ASHRAE standard 45. The system shall be trailer mounted and suitable for tow behind a HMMWV. Maximum utilization of the actual trailer or parts from the US Army Light Tactical Trailer is strongly desired. Towing operations is required in severe off-road conditions (70% off-road, 30% on-road), while the system shall be capable of 30-inch water-fording with no preparation, and 60-inch water-fording (salt water) with no more than 30 minutes preparation. The system shall provide for anti-wet-stacking of the engine under partial load conditions down to 50% engine load (30% desired). Maximum gross loaded weight, with fuel, cannot exceed 4200 pounds.
