GENERATOR

The document outlines the overhaul requirements for an Emergency Diesel Generator (Alternating Current, NSN: 6115-01-438-5849, P/N: 5N0063) used on WMEC 210 A/B Class vessels for the U.S. Coast Guard. The contractor is responsible for overhauling the generator ashore in a suitable repair facility, adhering to SFLC Std Spec 3101, which includes initial inspection, reconditioning (temperature Class F or better insulation), and potential rewinding if reconditioning fails. The overhaul also covers balancing, reassembly, shop acceptance testing, cleaning, painting to OEM specifications, and preservation, packing, and marking for shipment (ASTM D-3951, skid-mounted containers, specific stencil markings). The generator is a Caterpillar Inc. 180 kW, 240/480AC, 60 Hz, 3 phase, 1800 RPM unit. The work is conditional on the generator's winding condition. The warranty requires the contractor to guarantee the item against defects for 90 days after installation, for up to two years post-delivery. Government acceptance is at the destination, contingent on verification of no damage, order completeness, and adherence to packaging/marking. The cost estimate for the overhaul is not to exceed $22,750.

This guide from the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) provides an informational overview of packaging and marking requirements for Department of Defense (DoD) contracts, federal grants, and state and local RFPs. It highlights key regulations and standards, including Title 49 CFR for hazardous materials, ASTM D-3951 for commercial packaging, and MIL-STD-2073-1E for military packaging. The document details various military preservation methods (e.g., physical protection, preservative coating, waterproof protection) and packing levels (Level A for severe conditions, Level B for moderate conditions). It also outlines the MIL-STD-2073-1E worksheet for translating packaging requirement codes and specifies inspection provisions for quality assurance. Furthermore, the guide covers essential package markings, including identification, bar codes, address, and special markings (e.g., shelf-life, hazardous materials, project codes). It concludes with information on heat-treated wood packaging material, palletization standards (MIL-STD-147), and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) requirements, providing useful websites for additional resources.
