J -- EMERGENCY GENERATOR UPGRADE SOL RFP 665-30-97 DUE 090597 POC Chris Crader 818-895-9365 Emergency Generator Upgrade-The purpose of this work is to upgrade the govenor and engine and engine control systems of the 2000 Kilowatt diesel engine/synchronous genertor set at the VA Medical Center,16111 Plummer Street, Sepulveda, California 91343. The equipment is:Manufacturer:General Motors,Engine Model 16-645-34,Engine S/N:73M1-1056,Gen.Model:A20T-48,Gen.S/N:73M1-1-28. Requirements: A.Provide all labor,parts,and supervision to relpace all existing control relays in the engine control panel with a solid state programmable logic controller (Manuf: Allen Bradley or equivalent)with a minimum of 24 inputs,16 outputs and and all required programming. The new control system should include a new speed relay/magnetic pickup assembly (Dynalco SST2400 or equivalent). The new system should operte logically in a manner identical to the old system,i.e.,engine should start under certain conditions, such as loss of utility power, loss of utility phase overcurrent,undervoltage, or overvoltage; once started the generator should be prevented from going on line if generated voltage or frequency is not within specifications;and once started and on-line, the generator should take itself off-line for undervoltage, overvoltage, overcurrent, high or low frequency and engine safety.Current system logical opertion must be verified in the field by the successful vendor.The new system is to be connected to an existing remote annuciator. Included in this replacement are all power supplies, relays, and ancillary parts required to produce a functional system. B:Replace existing Woodward EGB actuator/EGA governor control with Woodward UA12 actuator and 2301A governor controller(or equivalent). Included are all linkages, levers, mountings,and other items required.C:Remove existing extraneous paralleling circuitry. Replace "back on line" sequencing circuitry with programmable logic control system. Add keyed switches for excercising system and controlling automatic transfer switches. D:Provide CAD drawings of the modification(two hard copies, plus one copy on 3.5"disk, IBM format, Autocad V.12 compatible) and two sets of manuals of new equipment. Provide on-site training of VA personnel on opertion of the new equipment.E:Contractor must be familar with the contols of the 1970 generation of the existing equipment in order that their function can be duplicated with modern electronics.
