Electrical Disconnect Stands vs. In-Ground Junction Boxes

Romtec Utilities provides complete pump station electrical controls that can be configured with above-ground disconnect stand. While in many respects these two components serve a similar purpose and have similar supply and installation costs, there are several reasons to choose one configuration over another. Let’s take a look at the benefits and potential drawbacks of these two types of electrical junctions for wiring below-grade pump station components.

Romtec Utilities Brand Availability for Pumping System Components

Romtec Utilities designs, manufactures, supplies, and constructs pumping systems for wastewater, stormwater, industrial process water, and clean water applications. Each pump station is a carefully engineered system of structural, mechanical, and electrical components, and these components can vary greatly from system to system. For each system function, there are many different technologies and brands of components to consider. Often times, pump station owners rely on the pump station design firm to specify the system components; however, some organizations have well-defined standards of technologies and brands to use for their pumping systems. Romtec Utilities has no brand exclusivity and can provide any product or technology on your pumping system.

BAE Systems Project Pumping Skid

Featured Project: BAE Systems

Romtec Utilities is one of the industry’s best options for getting custom pumping system designs like this project designed and supplied for BAE Systems. BAE Systems produces a wide-variety of products that serve primarily military and defense organizations. At its Holston Army Ammunition Plant in Tennessee, BAE had unique criteria for a new pumping system. Due to the sensitive nature of its manufacturing, many aspects of this project could not be disclosed, but Romtec Utilities has worked with several organizations that required discretion. The Romtec Utilities solution for BAE Systems was this skid-mounted, triplex pumping system, but there are several other unique design aspects.

Pump Station Intake & Discharge Structures

Romtec Utilities can design, supply, and construct complete pumping systems for virtually any application. Typically, a Romtec Utilities design includes everything between in the inlet pipe and the discharge pipe; however, frequently customers ask us to provide intake and/or discharge structures for their systems. These structures can range from simple prefabricated units up to sophisticated mechanical systems. Intake and discharge structures are designed to improve the long-term functionality of a pumping system and/or the downstream treatment or discharge facilities.

Get Pumping Systems through Government Contracts

Romtec Utilities can help government purchasers save money on complete pumping systems with our government contracts. Government contracts are negotiated product listings with built in discounts that represent a company’s most favorable pricing on the products listing. The negotiated price discounts ensure that government purchasers have access to products at or better than fair market value. Operating this way allows approved government agencies at the city, state, and federal level to purchase products immediately and directly without a required bid process. The advantage is getting a preferred product from a reputable manufacturer for less money in less time.
