Defense Logistics Agency intends to obtain Environmental Control Unit (ECU) that is mounted on the Trailer Mounted Support System (TMSS) trailer and provides air conditioning for the enclosure that is part of the TMSS system. DLA requires a three phase, five ton ECU producing 60,000 BTU/Hr of cooling capacity, and a three phase, 12 ton ECU producing 144,000 BTU/Hr of cooling capacity. The TMSS system is part of the Standardized Integrated Command Post System (SICPS) suite of systems. The 5 ton ECU will bolt onto the HDT, Inc. HP2C (TMSS MED) trailer with no modifications, and the 12 ton ECU will bolt onto the HDT, Inc. HP-8 (TMSS Large) trailer with no modifications. Additional technical specifications can be provided upon request. For past procurements, this item was supplied by HDT Expeditionary Systems, Inc.
