RFI for ¼ Ton Modular Refrigeration Unit PSC: 4110 Refrigeration Equipment NAICS: 333415 Air-Conditioning and Warm Air Heating Equipment and Commercial and Industrial Refrigeration Equipment Manufacturing NSWCPD c/411 is looking to solicit a contract in support of the Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS) Program for a refrigeration system to be installed on board DDG 1000 class ships. The system will need to match, as close as possible, the requirements in the following specification sections (attached): Naval Combatant Design Specification (NCDS) Sect. 516c, pg. 2 lines 9-25 NCDS Sect. 516e, pg. 4 lines 5-13 NCDS Sect. 516e, pg. 5 line 13 – page 6 line 35 DDG 1000 Program Design, Build and Process Specification (DBPS) Sect. 516c, page 1 line 46 – page 2 line 16 Replacement charge cylinders shall be secured in accordance with drawing 803-5184287 vice section 671 as referenced in section 516c, page 2, line 14. DBPS Sect. 516c, page 7 lines 18-26 Where -10 °F is referenced as a requirement in lines 24 and 26, -1 °F shall apply instead. MIL-R-16473 Sect. 3.5.1 MIL-STD-777 The system will also need to meet additional requirements, as close as possible, beyond the spec such as those listed below: Modular in design, such that there is a minimum total of two (2) independent refrigeration systems supporting the Galley Walk-In Boxes, Chill and Freeze Maximum foot print of 18.5 cubic feet inside the Galley Walk-In Chill Box and Freeze Box, respectively. The Chill Box is approximately 118” long x 47.13” wide x 93” high. The Freeze Box is approximately 87” long x 40” wide x 93” high. Bulkhead penetrations only where permissible. See attached drawing 635-8296184 A minimum of 0.25 Tons refrigeration capacity per Galley Walk-In Box Capable of maintaining full capacity on 2 +/- 1 GPM chilled water supply to the condenser Each Galley Walk-In Box capable of switching between Freeze (-1 °F) and Chill (33 °F) applications Comprised of Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) components Under this effort, the contractor would be expected to provide a unit that is already qualified and meets the above requirements, or environmentally qualifies a new unit to meet those requirements. Tests that would be required for qualification are MIL-STD-167-1 Type 1 and MIL-STD-461. Additionally, the required first article tests will be MIL- STD-1474 Grade D , MIL-STD-740-2 Type 3 , Naval Vessel Rules* (NVR) Part 5, Chapter 3, Section 5, paragraph 4.13 , NVR Part 5, Chapter 3, Section 5, paragraph 4.18 , NVR Part 5, Chapter 3, Section 5, paragraph 4.22 , MIL-STD-1399 Section 300 Type 1 , Pressure and Vacuum, Operation and Capacity, and Visual. In the NVR specification, replace “air conditioning unit” with “refrigeration system”. The production schedule is anticipated to be roughly one (1) ship set per year, with one (1) Freeze and one (1) Chill Walk-In Box per ship set, starting in FY25. In addition to providing production units, a technical data package will be required as well, to include manufacturer level drawings, a technical manual, spare parts lists, the software project, etc. Manufacturer level drawings and a system technical manual will be required upon proposal of a potential refrigeration unit. The contractor should have experience in producing refrigeration equipment for the US Navy that have passed vibration and EMI requirements. NSWCPD will require the ability for a government representative to be present for certain steps of the build to inspect progress. Delivery point of the units will be either Philadelphia, PA, Pascagoula, MS, Bath, ME, or San Diego, CA. This is expected to be a 3 year IDIQ contract where the government maintains flexibility on how many units to procure at a given time; however it would be expected that most orders would be for one (1) shipset at a time.
