- Description
- SCOPE Contractor shall fabricate and deliver new mesh panels for the Submerged Traveling Screens (STS) system. Each panel shall measure 88.75inx 132.50in. The mesh panels shall be covered under a one-year warranty against material and workmanship. SPECIFICATIONS The STS panels shall be of a 5.8 mesh construction woven entirely from 0.039in diameter monofilament. The monofilament, which shall be a chemically enhanced derivative of PolyethleneTerephthalate (PET) family of fibers, must be clear in appearance, and not be pigmented white in color, and is to be free from TIO2 (titanium dioxide). The monofilament must be produced with an additive to prevent any occurrences of metal activated degradation. The monofilament also must possess the characteristics of high molecular weight along with generally superior abrasion, hydrolysis and chemical resistance. The STS panels shall measure 88.75in (plus/minus 0.125in) wide X 132.50in (plus/minus 0.25in) long. The finished STS panels shall have distinct crimp of equal size in both the warp and fill directions and the fabric must be flat, free from pucker or blister. The monofilaments shall be free from abrasion or other damage. The panels shall not have selvage edges. All strands shall run the full length and full width of the panel without splicing. Material certification and a 12in square sample complete with edging shall be submitted for testing and approval after fabric weaving but prior to delivery. Each monofilament shall have a minimum tensile strength of 80 pounds and minimum elongation at break of 30 percent. The material shall be suitable for use in cold water and shall be heat set at a minimum of 360 degrees Fahrenheit so that it will be dimensionally stable when subject to temperatures of 200 degrees Fahrenheit. It shall also be heat set at an adequate tension to provide dimensional stability at ambient temperatures. The entire perimeter (length and width) of the STS panels shall be protected with polyurethane or another approved equal material. The protective edging shall have a useable temperature range of 10 to + 200 degrees Fahrenheit. The mesh shall be fully embedded in the edging with a minimum of 1/32nd inch cover on both sides. Width of the lateral edging shall be 4.00 plus/minus 0.125in. Width of the longitudinal edging shall be 2.00in plus/minus 0.125in. The selected polyurethane shall be completely bonded through the mesh to offer equal protection on both sides of the STS mesh panel. The perimeter of the protective polyurethane edging must not be subject to peeling, flaking, de-lamination or separation by any means.
