<br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />instructions. Equipment will be installed in such manner that connecting piping will <br />not impose any strain whatever on any equipment. Equipment will be set upon <br />grouted foundations, level or perpendicular, as the case may be, so that connecting <br />flanges, screwed connections, or flexible connections will meet without strain or <br />distortion. Base leveling nuts will be blocked out during grouting of foundations, the <br />grout allowed to set for not less than three days, leveling nuts loosened and followed <br />by grouting of block-outs, with non-shrink grout. <br /> <br />C. <br /> <br />All equipment will be installed with Type 316 stainless fasteners. <br /> <br />D. <br /> <br />PROPONENT will assure that all equipment furnished under this Section will be <br />suitable for installation as specified. The PROPONENT will be responsible for <br />determining the necessary clearances and headroom required to move all equipment <br />to its final location. <br /> <br />E. <br /> <br />In every case where a drive motor is connected to a driven piece of equipment by a <br />flexible coupling, the coupling halves will be disconnected and alignment between <br />motor and equipment checked and corrected. Machinery will first be perfectly aligned <br />and leveled by means of Type 316 stainless steel wedges and shims near anchor <br />bolts. Anchor bolts will be tightened against shims on wedges and equipment will <br />again be checked for level and alignment before placing grout. <br /> <br />F. <br /> <br />Equipment bases will not be grouted nor foundation bolts finally tightened until all <br />piping connections are complete and in satisfactory alignment with no strain <br />transmitted to the equipment. <br /> <br />G. Examine pads or supports to receive odor control fans for: <br />1. Proper anchor bolt locations. <br />2. Unevenness, irregularities and incorrect dimensions. <br /> <br />H. Supervise installation in accordance with odor control fan manufacturer's instructions <br />and recommendations. <br /> <br />I. Provide flanged flexible connections at air inlet and discharge of odor control fans. <br /> <br />J. All equipment will be installed on concrete bases and secured with anchor bolts in <br />accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. Concrete bases will be <br />provided by CITY under a separate contract and will be poured up to 1-inch below <br />metal bases or soleplates. PROPONENT will then accurately shim base to grade and <br />spaces between shims filled with an approved non-shrink grout. After grout has <br />reached its initial set, exposed edges will be cut back 1/2-inch and edges neatly <br />finished with 1 :2 cement mortar. Where channel baseplates are used, void inside the <br />channel will be filled with non-shrink mortar and open ends plastered with 1:2 cement <br />mortar. Bases will be accepted by the Odor Control Fan manufacturer prior to <br />placement. <br /> <br />K. Installation will include furnishing and applying an initial supply of grease and oil, <br />recommended by the respective PROPONENT. <br /> <br />L. Connect all piping, valves, and accessories as necessary to complete the installation. <br /> <br />M. Install all conduit and wiring and complete all connections. <br />
