A-1.1.1 Electric Pitch Control. The work includes furnishing labor, material, equipment, transportation, and supervision, to renovate the impeller pitch controls as follows: A-1.1.1.a Disconnection and Disposal.

The contractor shall dispose of all old control items properly. A-1.1.1.b Installation of new controls. The contractor shall fabricate mounting brackets and install a new Unimeasure rope transducer Model P420 or approved equal with a 4 20 ma output with a cannon plug and a flexible cord for quick disconnect. The Contractor shall provide a digital display with 3 digits of accuracy and an Allen Bradley Micrologix PLC or approved equal for controlling movement of the hydraulic cylinder that sets the pitch on the pump impeller and for controlling the hydraulic pump. The Contractor shall fabricate, and match the paint on the Engine Instrument and Control Panel with a faceplate to cover the holes from the old pitch controls. The Contractor shall mount and wire the digital display on the new faceplate and mount and wire the PLC inside the Engine Instrument and Control Panel. The PLC shall have at a minimum 8 inputs, 8 outputs, and 1 analog input. The contractor shall replace the conduit going to the pitch control on the pump with a flexible cord so that the pitch control can be disconnected during maintenance on the pump. The contractor shall wire the new pitch control in the Engine Instrument and Control Panel as specified in the attached drawings. A-1.1.1.c Operation of Pitch Control. The operation of the pitch control shall be as follows: Operator will be able to raise or lower the pitch using a spring return two position switch Labeled 1st line Impeller Pitch and 2nd line Lower Raise. The PLC will maintain the impeller pitch at the set point within + 0.2 degrees. For example if the operator sets the pitch at 5 degrees and the pitch drifts during pumping to 4.80 degrees, the PLC will bring the impeller pitch back to 5 degrees.

A-1.1.2c Operation of Lubricating Pump Switching Control. A three-position selector switch is located on starter unit 63, and the positions for this switch are labeled 01, Alternate, and 02 corresponding to Pump Unit 01, Alternator, and Pump Unit 02. To start the lubrication system, set the selector switch in the Alternate position and depress the Start pushbutton located on starter unit 63. Automatically the alternator will switch the control to the lubricating pump unit that was not the last to be operated.

To stop the lubricating pump unit, press the Stop pushbutton located on starter unit 63, and immediately the motor and the On red pilot light are de-energized, and the Off green pilot light is energized. If for any reason the pressure in the lubrication system fails to build up 30 psi when the lubricating pump unit is started, or if the pressure decreases below 30 psi for any reason while the lubricating pump unit is operating, automatically the lubricating pump will be stopped, the second lubricating pump unit will be started and immediately the following alarms will be energized: (1) A red pilot light located on the engine gauge board and labeled Gear Lube 1 Inoperative or Gear Lube 2 Inoperative that corresponds to the failed unit.
