SPUD WINCH PERFORMANCE Sample Clauses

SPUD WINCH PERFORMANCE. Each spud winch system shall be capable of developing a full drum single line sufficient to raise the spud at a minimum line speed of 60 ft./min. The Contractor shall determine the required line pull based on the weight of the spud and the efficiencies of the lifting system as designed during Phase II. The line pull shall increase to twice the required force determined by the Contractor, at or near zero line speed, to assist in removing the spuds buried in the bottom soil. This near zero speed condition typically results in a motor torque value that would exceed the rating of a motor that is only sized based on the weight of the spud to be moved at 60 ft./min. As such, the motor shall be sized and selected considering both operating conditions. Each winch shall have a minimum drum capacity determined by the Contractor. The Contractor shall size the drum capacity to allow the spud to travel the full range through the barge. There shall be 5 wraps of wire rope left on the drum with the spud in the full down position. The wire rope shall be of sufficient size and strength for the application. The ratio of barrel drum diameter to wire rope diameter shall not be less than fourteen. The design shall ensure easy spud line replacement. The spud winches shall have infinitely variable speed power up and power down, and a near free fall lowering capability. The winches shall be equipped with brakes rated at twice the spud dry weight of holding force. The brakes shall automatically set when: • there is any failure in the electric system powering the winch and • the control lever is in the center position. Unless moved by the operator, the winch control handle shall always be in the center position. In the near freefall mode, the winch shall be designed to automatically arrest the rotation of the drum in less than ¼ rotation of the drum once the spud hits the bottom, thereby preventing un-spooling of the wire. The spud winches shall also be provided with a weekend/unattended mode, consisting of a manually-operated jaw clutch capable of completely disconnecting the drum from the drive train, to permit wire to payout as river level rises. The system shall be kept under tension in order to prevent excessive slack wire should the river level fall.
