Specifications include, but are not limited to: Greater Dayton Regional Transit Authority (RTA) is seeking proposals for replacement of two (2) bus wash systems at 600 Longworth Street and one (1) system at 601 Longworth Street. Currently all wash systems are drive-through systems and are not the same technically nor by the same supplier. Systems will include all new water management components ranging from pumps, reclaim, tanks, controls, plumbing and all other components necessary for a high quality wash system. Due to floor space restrictions and bus wash cycle time, RTA is requesting drive-through systems. This project is a turnkey installation. Wash System Performance Starting, stopping and operation of the wash system must be completely automatic and must not require an attendant other than for routine inspection and maintenance. The wash system shall thoroughly wash the top, sides, fronts and rears of vehicles, driven through the systems. The vehicle actuates all wash operations automatically while progressing continuously (without stopping) at a uniform speed through each washing stage. If the automatic washing operation system faults, the washing system will include manual controls to allow an attendant to reset all motions to the “home” position, restart the cycle from the fault location, or reject the wash cycle. Allow for independent component brush testing when necessary. The supplier shall provide all labor, material, and installation hardware pertaining to the equipment. Structural Framework of Wash System All structural framework must be designed such to be free standing and secured to the floor with the appropriate lags and Hot-Dipped galvanized steel tube frame. Structure frames must be heavy-duty to withstand daily operation while minimizing structural vibrations and subsequent adjustments. Aluminum structures must be engineered to meet or exceed the heavy-duty standards of an equivalent structural steel design. Front, Side, and Rear Cleaning Unit Thoroughly washing RTA’s fleet refers to the Top, Sides, Front, Undercarriage, Wheels, and Rear. Rear cleaning does not apply to the Electric Trolley. Each brush shall be driven by a single electric motor rated at 480vac, 3-phase, 60 HZ and mounted in a “yoke” design with bearings supporting the both ends of the brush. The brush motors must be designed for use in a water intensive environment and shall be rated at a minimum of five (5) HP, unless sufficient engineering proof can be provided that less than 5 HP will perform equivalently. Each “yoke” air cylinder must have individual air regulators on both the extend and retract ports. General Requirements 1) RTA’s fleet size is as follows: (Numbers may fluctuate) a. 101, 40 Foot Diesels b. 20, 40 Foot Diesels/Hybrids c. 4, 30 Foot Diesels/Hybrids d. 33, Electric Trolleys e. 4, NexGen Electric Trolleys f. 75, Paratransit g. 20 Contingency buses (40’ Diesels)
