This tender involves the installation of an Ultrasonic Flow Measurement System (UFMS) at Arnot Power Station. The project spans three years and includes design, procurement, installation, and integration with existing systems.
The Reserve Feed Water Tank (RFWT) Balance Main Flow Meter Installation Project at Arnot Power Station aims to enhance water management and accountability through the installation of a fully integrated Ultrasonic Flow Measurement System (UFMS). This system will monitor and report the flow of demineralized water to each unit, addressing significant water loss issues and ensuring compliance with Eskom's Water Accounting and Management Framework Standard. The contractor will be responsible for the complete lifecycle of the project, including design, engineering, procurement, factory acceptance testing, installation, and commissioning.
Key requirements include the installation of ultrasonic flowmeters at designated locations, integration with the existing ABB Distributed Control System (DCS), and adherence to stringent safety and quality standards. The project will not only improve operational efficiency but also facilitate swift diagnosis of water consumption issues, ultimately reducing partial load losses and enhancing overall plant performance. Interested contractors must demonstrate relevant experience in similar projects and provide comprehensive documentation as part of their tender submission.
This tender is suitable for engineering firms, contractors with experience in instrumentation and control systems, and companies specializing in water management solutions. Businesses that have previously worked with Eskom or similar energy utilities will find this opportunity particularly relevant.
