- Description
- STATEMENT OF WORK Description of Use The Environmental Management Service department is looking for an autonomous scrubber with UV light kit to clean the hospital. This technology will help with productivity, as well as free staff up to combat Covid-19. We have precautions in place for our procedures used to clean patients rooms with UV Light Systems, by closing down the room to prevent exposure and lockdown with outside room activation. We want to be sure we employ the same safety measures to our Robotic Scrubbers as we need the utmost security and safety for staff and patients. The C&A requirements do not apply and a Security Accreditation Package is not required. Technical Specifications Name Brand or equal to (3) Liberty SC50 autonomous scrubbers with Factory Installed UV Light Kit GENERAL Machine shall be an autonomous 20-inch three-wheel battery-powered stand-on automatic scrubber with the ability to scrub and vacuum in one pass. CLEANING MODES Machine shall be operational in both autonomous and manual cleaning modes. AUTONOMOUS PLAN CREATION Machine shall offer at least two modes of autonomous cleaning: CopyCat mode shall replicate exactly what the operator does in a single manual ride and play it back each time thereafter. Machine shall replicate when/where the operator adjusts down pressure, vacuum power, solution flow, and water. Fill-In mode shall allow the operator to drive the perimeter of a room once and automatically calculate the most efficient route to scrub each inch of the area and avoid obstacles along the way each time thereafter. SAFETY Machine shall be certified to meet the ANSI (American National Standards Institute) autonomous safety standards: CSA/ANSI C22.2#336:2018 Ed.1 UL 60335-1:2016 ED.6 UL 60335-2-72:2017 Ed.1 UVGI Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation for disinfecting while cleaning- Factory installed Machine shall have a separate safety system independent of the mapping, obstacle system, and path planning. It shall override autonomous system and can stop immediately if an unsafe event is detected. Shall have drop-off sensors to detect drop-offs like a loading dock, stairs, escalators, etc. Machine shall notify people around the machine of direction with turn signals. AUTONOMOUS RUN TIME Machine shall operate at least 5-6 hours autonomously on a single charge (floor type dependent) and up to 2.5 hours of uninterrupted cleaning between dump and refill. OPERATOR ALERTS Machine shall alert the operator as soon as it needs assistance or is ready for another task. Operator will receive an SMS message directly to cell phone with all the details. Operator shall be able to subscribe and unsubscribe to this service WIRELESS FIDELITY AND MACHINE COMMUNICATION Machine shall communicate via WiFi/4G/etc. with devices and other machines for maintenance, troubleshooting and data transmission for other purposes. DARK/BRIGHT OPERATION Machine shall operate autonomously with or without the lights on with no compromise to safety using infrared sensors and cameras to sense and detect position and obstacles. Machine shall also be unaffected by harsh bright lights while operating autonomously. MAXIMUM AUTONOMOUS SPEED Machine shall operate autonomously at a max speed of 2.35 mph. OBSTACLE DETECTION Machine shall sense an obstacle up to 80 feet ahead on the cleaning path and automatically create a safe path around without stopping. When an obstacle is suddenly added to the cleaning path, the machine shall stop and determine a safe route around the obstacle. DIGITAL SERVICES Customer shall have full access to reports, updated daily, that tracks and details autonomous/manual run time, time of the day operation, and error messages. Customer shall have access to TrackClean which records operational data of your fleet and ensures transparency. TrackClean data includes machine working time, the machine down time, time of day that each activity occurred, the geographic location of the machine 24/7, Machine ID, and as an option can include information about the operator through the Smart Key system. Customer shall have access to the Site Assist app to provide the site manager with real-time machine usage data and send notifications if there are deviations in start time or performance. GRADEABILITY Shall be a minimum of 8.2 degrees for transport mode, 4.5 degrees in manual cleaning mode, and 2.8 degrees in autonomous cleaning mode. SOFTWARE UPDATES Software updates shall be provided free of charge and installed on the machine as soon as possible through the machines interface. IT SECURITY Machine shall have secure communication ensured by IT encryption standards to prohibit any unauthorized party to access machine data or machine directly. No physical driving possible through remote machine access or maleficent self-driving software updates. SMART KEY SYSTEM Machine shall use a two-key system to enable supervisors to configure the machine to best fit their facility. Lock out certain features like double down pressure, higher flow rates to reduce damage and operating costs. Assign keys to individual users to see who has been operating the machines. Yellow Supervisor Key: Allows for creating new autonomous cleaning plans and deleting old ones. Can also configure the machine to exact parameters for the most efficient clean. Blue Operator Key: Can only play back an autonomous cleaning path, can t create new ones or delete old ones. CLEANING PATHS The machine shall be available in the following configuration: 20-inch Orbital for the scrub system shall be a dual random orbital scrubbing system that utilizes one 20 scrub pad. Each pad shall have two rotational speeds. The micro orbit speed shall be 2,250 RPM in ¼ inch (.64 cm) orbits, and it shall be no greater than 10 RPMs for floor finish removal. Using one 0.74 hp (550 Watt) brush drive motor shall be used to drive the pad driver, onboard detergent dispensing system, onboard battery charger with a removable pad holder. SOUND LEVEL Sound pressure level shall not exceed 63 dB A when measured in accordance with IEC 60704-1/ISO 11201 for operator safety, comfort, and daytime cleaning of occupied spaces.
