Description
The Department of the Air Force is conducting market research to identify qualified businesses capable of replacing a chilled water system at Buckley Space Force Base in Colorado. The project involves decommissioning and removing the existing chiller and two Computer Room Air Handlers (CRAHs), and installing a new Trane-series chiller system and two new CRAHs. The work must be done with zero downtime to the active server room. The project has strict physical and technical constraints, including a 12,000 lb pad weight limit and a narrow 34" x 82" pathway for maneuvering CRAHs into the server room.
Key requirements include:
• Providing temporary cooling to ensure server room temperatures remain within operational limits during the transition
• Decommissioning and removing the existing chiller and CRAHs
• Installing a new Trane-series chiller system and two new CRAHs
• Commissioning all new equipment and verifying proper system performance and integration into the existing base Energy Management Control System (EMCS)
• Complying with strict physical and technical constraints, including footprint and weight limits, power supply requirements, and governing standards.
