E-MAIL: Ronnee R. Gonzalez, rgonzalez@mail.arc.nasa.gov. NASA/ARC plans to issue a Request for Quote (RFQ) to purchase services to rewind one AC generator stator at the NFAC Wind Tunnel located at the NASA Ames Research Center, Mountain View, CA, 94035-1000. The generator is part of an MG set with a D.C. motor on each end of the shaft. The MG set is part of a variable frequency generating system for powering the NFAC fan drives. The work will consist of: 1) Verify coil dimensions prior to coil fabrication. 2) Manufacture new stator coils per a NASA supplied design, with class F insulation. 3) Disassemble and remove the generator from the MG set. 4) Remove the rotor from the stator and store at wind tunnel. 5) Transport stator to contractor s repair facility. 6) Inspect and test the stator prior to rewind, and after coils are stripped. 7) Install the new coils according to industry standards. 8) Perform electrical testing to verify the integrity of coils and insulation in accordance with IEEE and NEMA standards for electric machines of this size. 9) Reinstallthe generator, D.C. machines, and bearings, and align the MG set to specifications furnished by the Government. 10) Perform acceptance testing of the generator and D.C. machines on-site as part of the system integration. Rigging of the generator will be required. Total weight of the rotor and stator is approximately 49,000 lbs, stator alone is approximately 24,000 lbs. Generator nameplate data: 7200 KVA, 6600 Volts, 630 Amps, 3phase, 60 Hz., 1.0 P.F., 600RPM, 164 Exc. Amps, 220 Exc. Volts, 125 Deg. C. Total stator temp. The rotor was rewound in 1986 and overhauled in 1996, and will not be worked under this contract. The vendor shall furnish the Government written documentation of the as-found condition inspections, coil manufacture and installation data, electrical tests, and machine installation and alignment results. The solicitation will be issued on September 30, 1999. There will be a MANDATORY SITE VISIT October 7, 1999 at 10AM at the site, building N-221 Room 106. Quotes for the work will be due by close of business October 13, 1999. The facility will be available for commencement of work on December 13, 1999.
