36 -- SPECIAL INDUSTRY MACHINERY SOL 00SQ110007 DUE 062300 POC Bruce McCarthy, 208-365-2600 Ex. 15, Marie Day, Purchasing Agent 208-334-1744 E-MAIL: mday@pn.usbr.gov, mday@pn.usbr.gov. (qq) A lockable selector switch shall be provided in the cab for transmitting (transforming) the control from radio to cab backup station. (rr) System design shall provide for rapid identification of faults to the module involved by operating or electrical maintenance personnel. Test lights shall be provided on all decoding/relay-driving modules to indicate whether or not those modules are functioning properly. A simple portable test device, the use of which shall require no interpretive readings, shall be provided with the system to test the transmitter. (ss) The radio system shall operate through, yet be separable from, the regular control system. Radio control system malfunction or failure shall not prevent normal cab control operation. The radio control system shall equal Series 9000 by Telemotive, as manufactured by Maxtec International Corp., 6470 W. Cortland Street, Chicago IL 60635. (2) Collectors. -- The collectors shall be of the double-shoe pantograph type (parallel hinged type) suitable for use with the conductors described above and shall be designed to keep sparking to a minimum. The collectors shall be sufficiently flexible to permit a 1-inch vertical and horizontal variation of the runway conductors and sufficiently flexible to prevent any undesirable strain or misalignment in the collector assembly. (3) Electrical connections to the trolley. -- The electrical connections to the trolley shall be by flexible-looped cable. This cable shall have sufficient conductors to supply power and control all equipment on the trolley, including brakes and motors. No stress will be taken by individual conductors. The cable shall be multiple conductor, rated for 600 volts, stranded copper, extra flexible, portable, with moisture-resistant rubber or rubberlike insulation on each conductor and shall have an overall neoprene jacket for service temperatures up to 60 C. (4) Control of Brakes. -- An electrically released, spring set motor holding brake shall be released by means of an electromechanical contact that supplies full voltage to the brake coil when a directional command is issued. Upon release of the directional control, one of the following sequences shall occur: (aa) The controller decelerates the motor to zero speed over a field programmable time ramp and then sets the brake by de-energizing the brake contactor. (bb) The brake sets immediately due to de-energizing of the brake contactor and the controller immediately goes to zero output. The selection of each of the above brake operating methods shall be obtainable by a simple program change via the controller keypad. f. Acceptance tests. -- The Contractor shall participate in testing the crane when directed to do so by the Contracting Officer. All supplied crane equipment shall operate without abnormal noise, vibration, or overheating. Before testing the crane shall be inspected to determine that all parts are in correct alignment and that no excessive wear has occurred and that all components are functioning properly. The contractor is not responsible for crane equipment not supplied under these specifications. Adjustments shall be made in accordance with standard practice or the manufacturer's recommendations. All limit switches shall be checked for proper adjustment and operation. The Government will furnish the required meters and personnel for obtaining and recording the test data. Speed and electrical data including volts, amperes, and watts input for each motion at each speed and load shall be recorded. If meters are connected at the crane supply panel instead of at the individual motors, power for controls and other devices using power shall be accurately determined and deducted from the total reading. The speeds and controls shall be in accordance with subparagraphs c. If deficiencies are disclosed, the Contractor shall be responsible for all expenses involved in correcting the deficiencies in the equipment he supplied. The following tests shall be made in the order indicated. Final speed adjustments for the hoist shall be made at rated load. Final speed adjustments for the trolley and bridge drives shall be made with rated load on the main hoist. All final recorded test data, except the data for the overload test, shall reflect final characteristics after all speed adjustments have been completed. (1) Tests (a) With 125 percent of rated load on the main hoist. (aa) Determine that the overload device operates satisfactorily. Override the overload device so that the remainder of the overload test can be performed. (bb) Determine that the hoist brakes operate satisfactorily and that the load does not lower, even momentarily, on "Raise." Raise and lower the load several times and record full hoist speed, raising and lowering. (cc) Transport the hoist load the full length of the trolley travel and then the full length of the crane travel, in one direction with the trolley as close to the extreme right hand of the crane as practical, and in the other direction with the trolley as close to the extreme left hand of the crane as practical. Recordbridge and trolley travel speeds at full speed in both directions. (dd) Reconnect the overload device. (b) With rated load on the main hoist (aa) Determine and record the hoist speed for each point of the controller in the raising and lowering directions. (bb) Determine and record the bridge speed and the trolley speed for each point of the controller, forward and reverse. (cc) "Inch" (least obtainable movement) the load in the raising and lowering directions. Determine and record five individual movements, then measure the total distance the load moved during the five "inching" movements and obtain an average. This will show the variation between each increment and also a reliable average. No electrical data are required for inching tests. (dd) Similarly, determine and record the "inching" movements of the trolley and bridge. (c) Repeat subparagraph h.(l)(b)(aa) with approximately 50 percent of rated load. (d) Repeat subparagraphs h.(l)(b)(aa) and (bb) with no load on the hook. (e) The auxiliary hoist shallbe tested in the same manner as listed above EXCEPT (1)(a)(cc), (1)(b)(bb), and (1)(b)(dd) tests are not required. (2) At the completion of these tests, the crane shall again be inspected for alignment, breakage, and excessive wear, and final adjustments to the contractor supplied equipment shall be made by the Contractor. (3) If adjustable frequency controllers are used, a test of the crane during normal plant operation shall be performed to demonstrate that system operation does not disturb adjacent sensitive circuits. Technical questions can be directed to Bruce McCarthy at (208) 365-2600 ex 15.
