Project Objective: The chilled water system serving the facility's server room currently suffers from degraded serviceability, sub-component failures, and frequent downtime. It is operating at half capacity, which risks the loss of critical cooling for 24/7 operations. The selected contractor must provide all tools, equipment, materials, and certified labor to perform a complete system replacement with zero downtime to the active server room.


Key Scope Items & Technical Specifications:


  1. Design & Sizing: Perform professional engineering cooling system design load calculations in accordance with UFC 3-410-01 (Sections 2-4 and 2-5.6) to determine final system capacity.

  2. Standardization Requirement: In accordance with the DAF Class Justification and Approval (J&A) for HVAC Chiller Replacement Standardization, the design of the new chiller system must be standardized on Trane-series equipment for this installation.

  3. Demolition: Safely decommission, recover refrigerant from, and remove the existing degraded chiller (Technical Systems Model: 30A0LM20-PT, Serial: 02-17-125822-001-001) and two existing Computer Room Air Handlers (CRAHs) (Data Aire Model: GFCU-04634, Serials: 2016-3226-A, 20163225-A).

  4. Equipment Installation: Procure, install, and commission:


    • One (1) new water chiller with an integrated air-cooled condenser (Trane-series).

    • Two (2) new chilled-water Computer Room Air Handlers (CRAHs) inside the secure server room.

  5. Temporary Cooling: Provide continuous, redundant temporary cooling to keep the secure server room strictly within operational temperature limits during the transition phase.

  6. Controls Integration: Fully integrate new controls into the base-wide Energy Management Control System (EMCS) in strict compliance with Base EMCS Standards (dated January 21, 2026) and UFC 3-410-02.


Logistical & Physical Constraints:


  • Chiller Pad Limits: The new chiller must fit the existing concrete pad (19’ - 11” L x 12’- 8” W x 6” to 8” H) and must not exceed the structural wet weight limit of 12,000 lbs. If the equipment footprint exceeds these limits, the pad must be extended.

  • Rigging & Delivery Clearances: CRAHs must be navigated through a restricted interior corridor with doorway clearances measuring exactly 34” W x 82” H.

  • Electrical: Must integrate with the existing 460V, 60 Hz, 3-Phase power supply and comply with UFC 3-501-01.

  • Security & Clearances: All personnel must pass NCIC background checks, comply with strict OPSEC guidelines, and complete AT Level I training prior to facility access.
