- Description
- This is a sources sought notice for Native-owned vendors in accordance with the Buy Indian Act and Dept. of the Interior Acquisition Regulation Part 1480. Preference consideration will also be provided to Indian economic enterprises (IEEs). BIA requires ten (10) each hydraulic bucket trucks. General description is provided below. Indicate capability to provide bucket trucks. Information provided will be used for market research purposes only at this time. 1.Telescopic articulating aerial with an insulating lower arm, insulating telescopic upper boom and a dielectrically tested insulating control handle, with upper control isolation system at the boom tip, for installation behind chassis cab, built in accordance to standard specifications and to include the following features: AGround to Bottom of Platform Height: 49.5 feet at 12.5 feet from centerline of rotation (15.1 mat 3.8 m). B.Working Height - 54.5 feet (16.6 m). C.Maximum Reach to Edge of Platform: 36.2 feet at 19.9 foot platform height (11.0 m at 6.1 m). D.Lower Boom Insulator: Provides 12.0 inches (305 mm) of isolation. E. SidebySideBoomConfiguration:Travelheight approximately 11'6" on a chassis with approximately 40" frame height. This may have to be increased depending on cab configuration. F. Articulating Arm: Tubular steel structure. The articulating arm is designed so that the articulating arm and lower boom are compensating. By raising the articulating arm only, the lower and upper boom maintain the same relative angle with the ground. By raising the articulating arm in conjunction with the lower boom, the operator is able to position himself more quickly and easily into the work area. G. Lift Cylinders: The rod eye is welded to the rod while the blind end of the cylinder is of cast steel, one piece design, which utilizes cartridge-type, bi-directional counter-balance holding valves. The lower boom has a spherical-type bearings on both rod and base end. The arm cylinder has a spherical type bearing on the rod end and self-lubricating bearings on the base end. H. Lower Boom:Fabricated, reinforced steel box structure. Ultra high molecular weight polyurethane slide pads are installed at the boom tip to guide the telescopic upper boom. These pads have a large contact area in order to reduce wear.The pads are shimmed and attached for ease of adjustment or replacementwithout disassembly of the booms. I.Lower Boom Pivot Pin: high strength chrome plated steel with self-lubricating, replaceable, non-metallic bearings. J. Telescopic Upper Boom: filament wound, square fiberglass, providing a minimum of 38.0 inches of isolation for. The inner surface of the fiberglass boom is coated with polyurethane to provide a dry, smooth inner surface, which will cause moisture to bead. The outer surface has a smooth gelcoat finish. K. Upper Boom Extension: The upper boom is extended and retracted by a double acting hydraulic cylinder installed within the booms.The boom extends and retracts over slide bearings located in the end of the lower boom. L. HydraulicSystem:Theopen-centerhydraulicsystem operates at a system pressure of 3,000 psi and a free flow rate of 8.2. The system consists of a pump, 25.0 gallon hydraulic oil reservoir, inlet manifold, lower control valve, tool/jib valve and single handle upper control valve assembly. Reservoir to be installed between the cab and body. M. Pedestal: Post type structure design with 16 inch diameter vertical pedestal tube with a heavy-duty welded flange at the base end and openings that provide easy access to the hydraulic hoses.The round structure facilitates personnel movement between the pedestal and body sides. Includes pedestal base plate for attachment to subbase. N. Rotation: Continuous rotation is provided by worm gear drive, equipped with extended shaft for manual rotation, driving a shear ball bearing rotation gear. The fully adjustable rotation drive assembly includes an external eccentric ring adjustment of the gearbox pinion gear to the main rotation bearing, permitting the ability to easily adjust backlash, reduce boom side play and ensure proper tooth contact over the life of the unit. This reduces life cycle cost. All bearing attachment bolts are easily accessed from outside the pedestal and inside the turntable. 0. Turntable:Steel fixture-welded structure with a 1.25 inch steel bottom plate.The bottom plate of the turntable is machined after welding to ensure a flat mounting surface for the rotation bearing. The hydraulic rotary joint and hydraulic hoses are located on the turntable for ease of access. The main control valve is located outside the turntable for convenience and ease of access and is covered for protection. P.Platform Leveling System: The platform is leveled by hydraulic leveling means, contained within the upper boom and designed to maintain the dielectric integrity of the aerial device. Controls for leveling and tilting the platform are located at the platform. Leveling for the platform includes two double acting cylinders incorporating counterbalance load holding valves to lock the platform in the event of hydraulic line failure. Cylinders are located at the platform and at the end of the lower boom. The master-slave action of the cylinders maintains a level platform throughout the full range of boom articulation. Q.Platform: Fiberglass non-insulated platform for use with or without insulated liner (per ANSI A92.2). R.The dielectrically tested, insulating upper control system includes the following boom tip components that can provide an additional layer of secondary electrical contact protection. This is not a primary protection system. 1.Control Handle: An insulating single handle controller incorporating high electrical resistance components that is dielectrically tested to 40 kV AC with no more than 400 microampers of leakage. The control handle is green in color to differentiate it from other non-tested controllers. The handle also includes an interlock guard that reduces the potential for inadvertent boom operation. 2.Auxiliary Control Covers: Non-tested blue silicon covers for auxiliary controls. 3.Control Console: Non-tested non-metallic control console plate. 4.Boom Tip Covers:Non-tested non-metallic boom tip covers.The covers are not dielectrically tested, but they may provide some protection against electrical hazards.
