3.1.2Ship name(s) and hull number(s) for which the unit is being acquired.

3.1.3Compartment or on-deck location where the unit will be installed. If identical units by make and model number will be installed in any one compartment, identify the specific locations in that compartment where the unit will be installed.

3.1.4Overall unit dimensions and orientation of machinery or equipment item undergoing testing.

3.1.5Evaluating activity and test site, including name, telephone number, and e-mail addresses of the individuals who performed and supervised the tests.

3.1.6Test date.

3.1.7Specified acceptance criteria, including reference units.

3.1.8Driver unit horsepower.

3.1.9Rated electrical characteristics, including volts, amps, and phase.

3.1.10Rated fluid media parameters (e.g., flow rates, temperatures, pressures).

3.1.11Equipment rated operational speeds (e.g., driver and driven unit revolutions per minute (rpm)).

3.1.12Expected equipment primary source excitation frequencies (e.g., rotational frequencies, gear tooth mesh frequencies, motor slot frequency, cylinder firing frequencies, vane frequencies, blade frequencies, piston frequencies, turbocharger frequencies).

3.1.13Resilient mount manufacturer, make, model number, date of manufacture, load range, and natural frequency of resilient mounts used to support the device under test.

3.1.14Number of resilient mounts used. A photo shall be included showing each installed resilient mount.

3.1.15If the use of non-Navy standard resilient mounts has been approved, include the characteristics including load rating in pounds and resonant frequency of the mounts.

3.1.16Operational load (e.g., full, half) of the machinery or equipment undergoing testing.

3.1.17Operating speeds (rpm) used during test.

3.1.18Throttling conditions, if any, and a description of how throttling conditions are set and verified.

3.1.19Operating suction and discharge fluid media parameters during test (e.g., flow rates, pressures, temperatures).

3.1.20Electrical inputs, outputs, or both used during test.

3.1.21Identification of make and model of measurement and analysis instrumentation used, including calibration instrumentation. Certificates of laboratory calibration shall be included.

3.1.22Details of instrument settings used during the testing, (e.g., type of sampling window, coupling, sampling frequency, sampling time, number of averages, averaging type, and frequency resolution of the data, if appropriate).

3.1.23Name and other information identifying any individuals representing the procuring activity who witnessed the test, including e-mail and telephone number.

3.2Drawings, photographs, and calculations.This section shall contain:

3.2.1Drawing and dimensional description of the subbase used to maintain alignment between the driver and driven unit.

3.2.2Resilient mount location and orientation, including any sway braces; and overall wet weight and center of gravity of the item undergoing testing with respect to a defined reference position.

3.2.3Calculated load on each resilient mount compared to specified load range of each mount; and calculated natural frequency of each mount when experiencing the calculated load.

3.2.4Drawing and dimensional description of the foundation and/or mounting structure used to support the machinery or equipment item undergoing testing.

3.2.5Calculations verifying compliance with the foundation natural frequency requirements of ANSI/ASA S2.16, and calculations verifying compliance with the mounting structure natural frequency and mass requirements of ANSI/ASA S2.16.

3.2.6Calculations verifying that coincidence between the mounting system natural frequencies and the machine forcing frequencies do not exist.

3.2.7Arrangement and description of flexible hose assemblies and flexible duct connections showing configuration, diameter and lengths of flexible sections, and details of how the weights of these were supported. Photos shall be included.

3.2.8Arrangement of piping and fittings used to facilitate testing and details of how the weights of these were supported.

3.2.9Arrangement of electrical power leads coupled with arrangements of cables used with instrumentation.

3.2.10Position and orientation of each installed transducer (accelerometer) with respect to a defined reference position. A photograph shall be included showing where each transducer (accelerometer) is installed.

3.2.11Description of any machinery items that were located nearby the test setup such as machinery located in an adjacent test cell, and the operational condition of those machinery items at the time period when the testing was undertaken.

3.3Measured data.This section shall contain:

3.3.1Measured data in reference units that are identical to the specified reference units.

3.3.2Any measurements that are included in graphical form shall show ordinate (magnitude) values with 10 dB between major divisions.

3.3.3Measured data compared, by measurement location and orientation, with accompanying information at that same location including background and ambient data and assigned limits.

3.3.4For structureborne noise levels that exceed the specified limits, excesses shall be clearly indicated in the tabulated and plotted data.

3.3.5If an excess to the specified one-third octave band structureborne levels exist, plots of narrowband data measured at the offending transducer positions and orientations, with frequency resolution not to exceed 1 Hz, shall be included.

3.3.6The report shall identify the mechanisms that exist within the machinery or equipment item that are specifically responsible for the measured excesses (e.g., rotational frequency, blade, vane or piston frequency, firing frequency, gear mesh frequency, coincidence of a forcing frequency with a natural frequency of the mounting system, resonance in the subbase).
