A. BACKGROUND: The Department of Veterans Affairs New Jersey Health Care System is currently seeking for Engineering evaluation/study of Boiler, Deaerator and Condensate Tank reliability and useful Life Expectancy. Study services are for equipment located at the Lyons Campus and East Orange VA Medical Center in NJ. The contractor shall provide the study of useful life expectancy services as specified in this document for all equipment listed in Attachment 1 Equipment List. VA Medical Centers provide critical health care which requires reliable steam supply for sterilization, domestic hot water, kitchens, and building heating and air conditioning. Boilers and associated equipment serving VA Medical Centers must be reliable, safe and efficient. The age of boilers and associated equipment is often a major indicator of reliability. The VHA Directive 1810 (1), BOILER AND BOILER PLANT OPERATIONS, assigns useful life expectancy , in years, to the boilers and plant equipment. The Directive requires that retention of certain equipment beyond the useful life expectancy must be based on an engineering evaluation of the reliability, efficiency and cost effectiveness of continued operation. B. SCOPE OF WORK: The contractor shall provide all labor, materials and equipment necessary to inspect, test and conduct the study of useful life expectancy of all 9 boilers and associated ancillary equipment located the Lyons Campus and East Orange Campus VA Medical Center. There are five (5) boilers in Lyons Campus and four (4) boilers in East Orange Campus. All the information for the boilers and other equipment to be addressed are described in Attachment 1 Equipment List. The work shall be documented in a full report of findings and recommendations. The report must be stamped by a licensed professional engineer. C. SPECIFICATIONS: 1. Qualification Requirements for Contractor and Inspection Personnel: A. A professional engineering firm (Professional License (PE)) that specializes in useful life expectancy evaluations. The PE will sign under their seal the evaluations/analysis of the calculated life expectancy of the boilers and associated equipment. The evaluations shall be accomplished by visual inspection and non-destructive testing conducted by experienced boiler inspectors and non-destructive testing experts on the team. B. The inspections shall be supervised on-site by a Qualified Professional Inspector , defined as anyone or combination of the following. Proof of qualifications shall be provided with the bid and as part of the final report. 1) A boiler inspector who has a valid commission from the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors. 2) A boiler inspector who has qualified by passing a written examination under the laws, rules and regulations of a jurisdiction of a state. 3) A boiler inspector who is regularly employed as a boiler inspector by a jurisdiction that has adopted and administers one or more sections of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code as a legal requirement, and has a representative serving as a member of the ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) Conference Committee. 4) A boiler inspector who is regularly employed by an insurance company that has been licensed or registered by the appropriate authority of a state of the United States to write boiler and pressure vessel insurance. C. Non-destructive testing personnel shall be certified to American Society for Non-destructive Testing (ASNT) Level II, who are experienced in evaluating boilers and associated equipment. 2.

Manhole gaskets can be standard material for High pressure boilers. C. Replace all additional gaskets used in the cleaning and inspection of the boilers with OEM gasket kit. D. Where insulation is removed or damaged during inspection, it must be replaced. 13. Boilers inspection schedule: A. From April to September, two (2) boilers at a time will be available for inspections. B. From October to March, one (1) boiler at a time will be available for inspection. C. Prior arrangements with COR at each campus will be necessary to avoid conflicts with boilers availability. D. The number of inspections visits will depend on how the contractor plans to accomplish the inspection of the nine boilers and its associated equipment. E. VAMC RESPONSIBILITIES FOR PREPARATION OF BOILER INSPECTION 1. The boiler will be prepared as follows by VAMC for the inspection prior to the scheduled arrival of the inspector. This includes cooling the unit to near ambient temperature. Boiler shall be locked-out and tagged-out using VA lock-out procedures, connecting piping isolated. The contractor shall inspect the lock-out and have his staff place their own lock-out devices on the equipment, piping, and devices. If further isolation and bleeding of high energy or any other systems are needed based on contractor s recommendation and deemed beyond the capability of the VA it shall be done by the contractor at their expense. 2.

Coordinate preparation work with the requirements of the inspection firm. 4. All records of maintenance and repair activities, water treatment logs, operational logs, inspection reports, and all histories of prior problems shall be readily available during the inspection. Records for three years are suggested. If the consultant requires copies, they will need to sign out the documents and return them upon completion. F. INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS FOR DEAERATOR (DA) AND CONDENSATE TANKS 1. Deaerators and Condensate Tanks shall be inspected first and in the first three months of the period of performance. 2. Since steam production cannot cease, the consultant and the VA COR will have to work closely to develop an inspection schedule that will ensure the facility can always meet feed water demand with sufficient backup. 3. The DA inspections shall comply with the guidelines in the current issues of the following documents: 4. NACE International, Standard RP0590, Recommended Practice for Prevention, Detection and Correction of Deaerator Cracking. 5. The contractor shall prepare the DA and Condensate/Surge tanks by opening all manways, clean unit of loose materials, provide proper illumination, comply with confined space access requirements including having safety personnel present in the boiler plant. 6.

Measurement locations on the shell shall be on each of the quadrants, on four to six locations along the length of the shell (16 to 24 measurements total). The technician may recommend fewer or more tests to the owner, providing justification. c. Typically, the pressure vessel section containing the deaerator trays and sprays is not accessible for non-destructive testing. The experience is that this section, which is mainly exposed to steam, is less vulnerable to weld failures and material thinning than the storage section which contains condensate and make-up water. 7. At the completion of the inspection each DA and Condensate tank are closed up properly using new gaskets. 8. If insulation is removed or damaged during inspection, it must be replaced. G. VAMC RESPONSIBILITIES FOR PREPARATION OF DEAERATOR (DA) AND CONDENSATE TANKS FOR INSPECTION. 1.
