Project Value: $24,600,000
Project Overview:
ACS provided turnkey delivery, including the
design, construction, equipment fabrication and
integration and commissioning services for a new
engine research and development test center in
Aiken, South Carolina. The project consisted of
a Development Building with two R&D test cells
as well as a new Mechanical/Electrical building
providing all new facility systems required to
support the test cells. The project will support the
research and development for MTU America’s S2000
and S4000 series of diesel engines. The output range
of these engines is 550 kW up to a maximum of 4500
kW.
ACS Services:
ACS held a single-source contract for test facility
design and construction management; equipment
design and component specification, equipment
build, procurement, and contractor installation;
integration of equipment, facility, and control
systems; and commissioning.
