2021 International MV/PL Custom Titan 170 <br />Type I Ambulance Proposal Specification <br /> <br /> <br />A5347-0002 11/05/20 <br />43 <br /> <br />CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM: <br /> <br />The Ambulance Climate Control System in the chassis, shall only function when the vehicle is in the run mode. This shall <br />be done to reduce the electrical load on the vehicle when the engine is not running. <br /> <br />FLOW-THRU VENTILATION: <br /> <br />A high volume power exhaust ventilation system shall be installed on the left rear side panel of the vehicle. It shall consist <br />of a 280 CFM, (2) speed blower motor, connected to a welded aluminum, transfer plenum. This plenum is directly <br />connected to a set of dual closeable intake vents mounted in the face of the interior rear corner cabinet. On the exterior, a <br />Cast Products polished aluminum cowl vent with an internal, rubber back flow flap shall be installed on the exterior of the <br />modular body. The cowl vent shall be installed using a EPDM 40 to 60 durometer rubber gasket. Single speed blowers or <br />blowers with resistor type speed control are unacceptable. Installations which produce excessive noise due to vibration <br />shall be cause for rejection. <br /> <br />12V AIR CONDITIONING CONDENSER: <br /> <br />The vehicle shall be equipped with a body 12 volt air conditioning condenser. The air conditioning condenser shall be <br />added to provide refrigerant cooling for the auxiliary compressor added for the body. The condenser shall be fan cooled <br />by a condenser mounted 12 volt cooling fan. The fan shall be relay controlled and only be activated when the rear air <br />conditioner unit is activated. The cooling rating of the condenser shall be 40,000 BTU, and the air flow rate shall be 2,800 <br />CFM. <br /> <br />DUCTED HEATER AND AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM: <br /> <br />The unit shall have a minimum capacity of 38,000 BTU Air Conditioner and 60,000 BTU Heat operating with 12 volt <br />power. The unit will have a high performance 650 CFM Brushless blower fan with a five (5) year warranty. A receiver - <br />dryer shall also be installed on the evaporator case to remove moisture from the refrigerant system. The climate control <br />unit shall be permanently attached to the double ductwork system running full length of the ceiling of the vehicle. Each <br />duct shall be fully contoured with approximate dimensions of 5" wide and not protrude more than 2 3/4" from the ceiling. <br />In addition each duct shall have four (4) equally spaced from front to rear, fully adjustable 4 -way adjustable louvers with <br />shut off feature at each register. The duct work shall be covered with a fully padded vinyl covering and incorporate the <br />vehicles drop down wire raceway cover in the center. The heater/air conditioner unit shall be located in the front of the <br />vehicle centered above the cab to body pass through. An air cleaner filter shall be installed in the return air grille located <br />in the underside of the cabinet. <br /> <br />The climate control unit shall include a twin air return system. One mounted high and one mounted low for full air re - <br />circulation. In addition the entire climate control unit shall be double insulated first by the standard body insulation and <br />secondly by a fully encompassing 5/16" thick reflective insulation. The reflective insulation shall also extend the full <br />length of the raceway duct, front wall and ceiling of the climate control cabinet. <br /> <br />All heater hoses provided shall be OEM style EPDM rubber type. The use of lesser quality hose or silicone hose is an <br />unacceptable substitution. The systems heater shall include an electric 2-way, internally piloted, normally closed solenoid <br />valve which only opens when the heater unit is "On" and when the vehicle is running. The heater shut off valve shall also <br />include an emergency shut off switch located within the rear power distribution panel. <br /> <br />All Air Conditioner hoses shall be Goodyear Galaxy Type 4890. Barrier type hose shall be unacceptable. <br /> <br />No exceptions or deviations to this system will be allowed due to its superior air distribution system and low noise <br />characteristics. An exception will be cause for rejection of bid. Bidder/manufacturer must provide proof that this is an
