DUE 062599 POC Kathleen Barry, (207)438-3866 E-MAIL: Kathleen M.
Barry, kmb_c530@ports.navy,mil. This is a combined
synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with
the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional
information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the
only solicitation; quotations are being requested and a written
solicitation will not be issued. This announcement is issued as
N00102-99-Q-1188 and incorporates provisions and clauses effective
through Federal Acquisition Circular 97-11. This acquisition is NOT
reserved for Small Business, however, the quoter's size status may
affect entitlement to award in the case of a tie. The standard
industrial classification (SIC) code is 7359 and the small business
size standard is 500 employees. Item 0001 -- The requirements listed
below are for equipment that will provide dehumidified and heated air
during the fall of 1999, most likely to commence on September 10th, and
continue into the winter and early spring of 2000 for an approximate
period of eight (8) months in Drydock 3 (DD#3) at Portsmouth Naval
Shipyard (PNS). The mandatory required period will be for a period of
(4) months with an option to renew monthly for a total of (8) months.
The equipment must be capable of providing the proper conditioned air
continuously without being manned while the diurnal and seasonal
ambient environment varies greatly. The equipment will be exposed to
ambient temperature and humidity conditions although it may be
partially protected from the elements by a framed material (e.g.
herculite) structure. For flexibility and scheduling reasons, the
equipment will be set-up as two (2) independent and non-collocated
assemblies and therefore, cannot be dependent on each other. Each
duplicate assembly will consist of one (1) dehumidifier and one (1)
heater. 1. Each of the two (2) desiccant type dehumidifier units will
be the same and have the following features: b. Each dehumidifier shall
be of the non-cycling sorption type with a single desiccant rotary
structure. Desiccant wheel shall be either titanium silica gel or
lithium chloride. The desiccant type dehumidifier shall be manufactured
as one (1) complete unit to include all necessary devices such as the
desiccant wheel, desiccant driver, reactivation heater, energy control
system, filters, motors, fans, automatic controller, and other
auxiliary components. The dehumidifier shall be factory assembled. The
dehumidifier shall be functionally tested prior to shipment. c. Each
dehumidifier shall be capable of removing a nominal 239 pounds of
moisture based on ambient conditions of 75 F and 50% RH assuming an air
delivery of 9000 scfm. The dehumidifier shall be capable of delivering
processed air at 52 F dew point or lower when the ambient conditions
approach saturation at the same 75 F. d. The supply fan shall be set to
deliver between 8,000 to 10,000 scfm at 2 inches of T.S.P. in WC. e.
Intake air shall be pre-filtered. f. The processed air outlet
transition piece shall be sized for 18-inch diameter round flexible
ducting. g. Required utility shall be electric: nominal 460 volt AC /
3 phase / 60 hertz. An equivalent dehumidifier meeting the above
requirements is the Model HC-9000 or Model HCD-9000 EA desiccant
dehumidifier unit as manufactured by the Munters Corporation --
Cargocaire Division. 2. Each of the two (2) heating units will be the
same and have the following features: a. Supplemental heat to be a
heating coil module after dehumidification (i.e. postheat accessory).
The separate heater unit shall be compatible with the desiccant
dehumidifier unit. b. Each heating coil module shall be manufactured as
one (1) complete unit to include all necessary devices such as the
coils, power/switch system, valves, pump, motor, controller, and other
auxiliary components. The heater shall be factory assembled. The
heater shall be functionally tested prior to shipment. c. The heating
coils shall be sized to provide a minimum of 500,000 Btu/Hr (~150 kw)
based on an airflow of 4500 scfm. The coils shall be capable of
increasing the dehumidified processed air temperature from 42 F to 102
F. d. The power switches shall be in at least four (4) stages. e. The
machine's processed air inlet and outlet transition pieces shall be
sized for 18-inch diameter round flexible ducting. f. Required utility
shall be electric: nominal 460 volt AC / 3 phase / 60 hertz. An
equivalent heater meeting the above requirements is the Model 150 kw
electric heater as manufactured by the Munters Corporation --
Cargocaire Division. 3. Adjustment shall be manual for both humidity
and temperature control. As an option, the Contractor shall propose a
fully automatic and remote sensing control for both the desiccant
dehumidification unit (humidity) and the heating coil module
(temperature) with a description of its proposed operation. 4.
Equipment shall not include flexible ducting. Even the interconnecting
ducting between the dehumidifi-cation unit and the heater will be
provided by the Shipyard. There will not be a separate fee for a power
chord/extension nor should extra cable be provided. The Shipyard
willelectrically connect the rented equipment to a power source and, if
necessary, the Shipyard will also furnish a suitable power cable. 5.
The equipment shall be modular in design for compactness, portable for
transport, ruggedly constructed for a marine environment, and rigidly
attached to a sturdy frame with preferably welded lifting points for
hoisting onto a Shipyard drydock floor or elsewhere. The equipment
footprint shall be smaller than 16 feet X 10 feet for the desiccant
dehumidification unit and 10 feet X 6 feet for the heating coil module.
The drydock floor plan has been developed assuming those dimensions.
Footprints larger than the aforementioned planned measurements must be
technically evaluated on a case-by-case basis as to whether there is
sufficient drydock floor space. The precise weight of each unit shall
be prominently displayed. 6. Set-up, start-up, and dismantling of the
equipment to include training in its operation and control. 7. Within
24 hours of being notified, the Contractor shall begin repair of the
rental unit(s). The rental unit(s) shall be replaced within seven (7)
calendar days of initial notification of need for repair if the
original defective unit(s) cannot be made operational within that seven
day time frame. Item 0002 -- Option to extend the rental up to an
additional four months in one month increments (Note: options will be
evaluated in award). Deilvery shall be approximately 10 September 1999.
