City of Wenatchee – Wastewater Lift Station Replacement
Project Description
This municipal lift station replacement was configured to handle medium flows of sewage from a large area of Wenatchee, Washington. This deep wet well was constructed from precast concrete and includes Tnemec interior coating. Vaughan Chopper Pumps in a duplex configuration were selected to macerate solids and alternate pumping cycles. A PLC with a touchscreen interface provides an easy and flexible control panel. The primary level-sensing device is a pressure transducer with floats backup level-sensing. This control panel also uses soft starters to reduce current inrush to the 30 hp pumps.

Why They Chose Romtec Utilities
The City of Wenatchee contacted Romtec Utilities to manage a complete lift station replacement project. The City chose to save money by working directly with Romtec Utilities for all the engineering and design requirements. Romtec Utilities worked with the City to design this wastewater lift station and to also establish design standards for all future lift stations. The City of Wenatchee chose Romtec Utilities because it could get all the design, engineering, manufacturing, supply, training, and warrantee from a single entity with specific expertise in package lift stations. By establishing a design standard, the City of Wenatchee has also made each future lift station project a much more defined and straightforward process.
