operation, the system shall be operated over an initial operating period
not to exceed [_____] days. The Contractor shall demonstrate proper
operation of the equipment, including, but not limited to, the ability of
the system to produce the minimum specified effluent requirements detailed
in Paragraph Design Criteria or Cartridge and Bag Design Criteria (as
applicable), proper operation of the media cleaning equipment, and the
control system ability to provide the correct operational logic to optimize
the filtration process.
3.11.3
Acceptance Testing
Acceptance testing shall commence not sooner then [_____] days and not
later than [_____] days following approval of the initial operation. The
acceptance tests shall demonstrate the ability of the filtration system to
meet the effluent specified requirements when operating at the design flow
rate and to demonstrate the control system ability to provide the correct
operational logic to optimize the filtration process. The tests shall be
conducted over [_____] days of continuous operation. [_____] effluent
samples shall be collected during each [_____] hour period. Samples shall
be taken not less than [_____] hours nor more than [_____] hours apart.
The samples shall be analyzed for [turbidity] [total suspended solids]
[effluent particle size] [_____] by standard methods as described in
[_____]. For the filtration system to qualify for process acceptance, the
average value of each of the filtered water effluent parameters monitored
during the continuous testing shall not exceed the values of the specified
parameters. In the event that the specified filtered water quality
requirements are not met during the period that acceptance testing is
conducted, the defective equipment or operation shall be modified or
replaced and the testing repeated. The schedule for retesting is subject
to approval by the Contracting Officer.
3.12
FIELD TRAINING
A field training course shall be provided for designated operating and
maintenance staff members. Training shall be provided for a total period
of [_____] hours of normal working time and shall start after the system is
functionally complete but prior to final acceptance test. Field training
shall cover all of the items contained in the Operating and Maintenance
Instructions. The instructions shall include, but shall not be limited to
the following:
a. System layout showing piping, valves and controls and
installation requirements.
b. Approved wiring, logic, and control diagrams prepared in
accordance with ISA S5.1 including a drawing index, legend and
symbols list, and abbreviations and identifiers.
c. A control sequence describing startup, operation, and
shutdown; including the functional and operational description of
the control system covering the procedures for programming,
operation, startup, shut-down, and calibration.
d. Operating and maintenance instructions for each piece of
equipment, including checkout, troubleshooting, and servicing.
e. Manufacturer's bulletins, cut sheets and descriptive data,
parts list, and recommended spare parts.
