description
AWC require to purchase up to 708 catering carts for use on Hitachi trains as follows.
Service Carts shows images of similar carts in operation on other Hitachi Trains in the UK and their dimensions. Our new carts would need to be comparable.
| a) | Dimensions |
| • | Overall (L x B x H): 518 x 300.4 x 930mm |
| • | Top Recess: 39mm There should be a means to restrain a drawer/slop bucket on the top of the cart, by way of handrails or similar (see picture for current) |
| b) | Weight |
Whilst rail does not have the same weight limitation of airlines, we expect that an empty cart weighs no more than:
| • | Empty: | 18kg | |
| • | Capacity: | 62kg | |
| • | Max gross weight: | 80kg | |
| c) | Key Features: | ||
| i. | Two doors, you will need to state if the doors are left, or right side hinged. | ||
| ii. | Door should be able to be fully opened, flat against side of cart, and be held there by magnet. | ||
| iii. | Two way, four-pedal foot operated brake system, | ||
| iv. | Powder coated doors of one colour. Tenderers will need to state if there are colour options. | ||
| v. | Three-point turn lock, sealable by cable tie or similar. | ||
| vi. | At least 3 Internal runners, spaced circa 146 mm apart. Four runners shall be required if no internal mid shelf is provided. These should support the use of 5 of the drawers within each cart. | ||
| vii. | There is no requirement to provide an internal shelf at the mid height in place of a runner, However, the supplier shall state whether this shall be part of their preferred design and if not confirm that the strength/support to the cart shall be appropriate for the intended use without this support. We want the positioning of any internal shelf to maximise the space available, so that there is minimal space loss due to the drawer positioning, avoiding wasted space. | ||
| viii. | Option for external bumpers along the longest side of the cart (but not impeding door fully opening). Two bump strips per side. Tenderer to provide a cost with and without these bump strips. | ||
| ix. | Corner protectors on the 4 top corners (these can be fitted post-delivery by the tenderer, but tenderers will need to state if these are or are not included in the initial delivery or fitted after) | ||
| x. | Cart top should be durable, flat and easily wipeable. | ||
| xi. | All internal surfaces should be smooth, and easily cleanable for hygiene purposes (no hidden nooks, ledges etc) |
