CLIN 0001: QUANTITY (1 Each); DESCRIPTION: EQUIPMENT PROCUREMENT SPECIFICATION; BURN-OFF OVEN FOR NAVAL AIR STATION WHIDBEY ISLAND. 1.0 Introduction. Naval Air Station (NAS) Whidbey Island, Washington, is currently in the process of constructing a new powder coating facility for the painting and de-painting of ground support equipment (GSE) maintained by Aircraft Intermediate Maintenance Division (AIMD) at bldg. 995. The Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center (NFESC) is in charge of procuring, under a Chief of Naval Operations program to purchase pollution prevention equipment, a burn-off oven for the facility to remove cured organic coatings on GSE. The contractor shall coordinate with NFESC, NAS Public Works, and AIMD for the equipment requirements and purchase of the oven. 2.0 Scope. The scope of this contract is to purchase a burn-off oven for the new powder coating facility (bldg. 995) at NAS Whidbey Island. The contractor shall provide on-site technical support during installation, set-up, and training as needed. 3.0 Standards and Codes. Materials, supplies, and equipment provided under this contract shall comply with the applicable sections of the following standards, codes, and regulations. The latest edition of the referenced publication in effect at the time of contract award shall apply. Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) -- 29 CFR 1910 National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) -- NFPA 70 , National Electric Code National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) -- NFPA Bulletin 33, Chapter 13, paragraph 13-4c National Electrical Manufacturer's Association (NEMA) -- ICS-6, Industrial Control and Systems Enclosures 4.0 Specifications. 4.1 General. The oven shall be designed to remove cured organic coatings from metal parts in a controlled manner without ignition of any flammable or explosive material. The oven shall be supplied complete with the necessary accessories to make it fully functional for its intended purpose and ready for operation after installation. The oven shall comply with current Factory Mutual Insurance standards and NFPA Bulletin 33, Chapter 13, paragraph 13-4c for explosion venting. The oven shall be designed to maintain a maximum temperature of 800 F with even heat distribution throughout its chamber. The oven shall have thermal oxidation (afterburner) that can maintain a minimum temperature of 1400 F to incinerate any smoke or odor before being emitted from the oven exhaust. The main burner(s) shall not ignite until the temperature in the thermal oxidation chamber(s) is at a minimum of 1400 F. Oven exhaust shall be vented from the left side or left rear of the oven to align vertically with a predetermined area for exiting the building's roof. The right side front door shall swing open with a minimum arc of 120 and preferably an arc of 180 to allow for ease of loading and unloading of parts. Combustion chambers located outside of the oven shall be enclosed in sheet metal to prevent damage and protect personnel from hot surfaces. The internal oven chamber walls, ceiling and floor shall be protected from corrosion and wall insulation shall be protected from abrasion while loading and unloading parts. The oven shall have the following dimensions and be able to fit through an 18' x 18' building door. Width Depth Height Inside Chamber, minimum(useable volume w/o cart(s)) 10'0" 16'0" 9'9" Overall Outside, maximum (including clearances but excluding chimney) 15'4" 21'4" 16' 4.2 Utility Requirements. The oven shall be designed to operate on the following available utilities. Electrical: 208/120VAC, 60 Hz, 30 amps, 3 Phase Natural Gas: <3 MBTU/hr at a maximum pressure of 15" water column Water : 20 gpm at a maximum pressure of 60 psi Compressed Air: <90 psi The oven shall utilize commercially-available industrial gas burner(s) with a high output blower, no-clog nozzle design, easy maintenance, and rugged heavy-duty construction. The gas burner(s) shall have a self contained electronic ignition system, continuous monitoring for flame detection, automatic self-cooling system, and burner lock-out with loss of flame or any malfunction. 4.3 Control Systems. All electrical controls and system control panels provided with the oven shall conform to the NFPA 70 and NEMA ICS 6. 4.3.1 Rate of Temperature Change Control System. The oven shall have an automatic (self-adjusting) rate of change control system that monitors and precisely controls the temperatures in the oven chamber and afterburner chamber(s). The temperature in the oven chamber shall not exceed 800 F and the afterburner chamber(s) temperature shall not exceed 1800 F. The rate of change shall be programmed by the oven manufacturer prior to shipping and not require any adjustments regardless of the size of the load or the type of paint/coating to be removed. The control system shall not require operator input. Water mist is an acceptable method to control the oven chamber and afterburner temperatures. In addition, the oven shall have a backup rate of temperature change control system in the event that the primary rate control system fails. The backup rate control system shall automatically activate if the primary system fails to control an overheat condition. The backup rate control system shall conform to the same requirements described previously for the primary rate control system. Furthermore, the oven shall be provided with a "trip" system that cuts-off and locks out the energy source to the oven if both the primary and backup rate control fail to properly function and can only be reset manually. 4.3.2 Load Cycle Control System. The oven shall have an automatic (self-adjusting) load cycle control system that controls the length of time the oven is operating to clean any part, regardless of size or coating thickness, and no longer. The load cycle control system shall prevent premature shut down before any part is thoroughly cleaned (short cycle) and excessive operation after the part is cleaned (run on). An hour meter accurate to the tenth of an hour shall be provided to indicate cumulative operating time. 4.3.3 Diagnostic System. The oven shall have the capability for self-diagnosis of any operational abnormalities. This system shall monitor the critical functions of the oven during operation and display messages and/or pictures of any abnormalities or problems. The oven shall have a cool down feature that activates when the temperature of the oven is above 300 F to purge the oven of any smoke present due to afterburner failure or if both the primary and backup rate of temperature change controls fail to contain a rapid temperature change. 4.3.4 Battery Back-up System. In the event of an electrical power failure during a cleaning cycle, the oven shall have a battery back-up system that activates to cool the oven down and prevent any overheats. 4.4 Accessories. 4.4.1 Exhaust Stack. The oven shall be provided with enough insulated stainless steel exhaust stack to attain a height of 32 feet, adjustable roof flashing, storm collar with weatherproof sealant tape, and rain cap for each exhaust chimney. 4.4.2 Material Handling Cart(s). The oven shall be provided with flat bed cart(s) as a means of easily moving the parts to be cleaned in and out of the oven. The flat bed cart(s) shall have a supporting surface of metal grating with a minimum load rating of 50 lb/sq ft load (each) and wheels that roll on metal tracks attached to the oven chamber floor. If more than one cart is provided they shall be designed to quickly and easily link together and, when linked, fit within the oven chamber with the doors closed. The useable load height of each cart shall allow a part 8' in height and the cart to fit within the oven chamber and allow 3" above the load for clearance. The cart(s) shall be made of materials that are able to withstand the maximum temperature rating of the oven. 4.4.3 Exterior Metal Tracks. Exterior metal tracks shall be provided to allow the flat bed cart(s) to be rolled entirely out of the oven chamber. The exterior metal tracks shall have a means to attach them to the building's concrete floor but also be removeable. 5.0 Additional Requirements. 5.1 Installation and Training. The oven manufacturer shall provide labor and resources for the installation and/or start-up supervision for verification of proper operation of the oven and its controls, instrumentation, and gauges. The oven manufacturer shall provide complete detailed installation drawings and step-by-step instructions. The oven manufacturer shall provide training to Navy personnel on the proper operation and maintenance of the oven. 5.2 Manuals and Documentation.
