Microsoft Columbia Data Center – Aircraft Rated Lift Stations
Project Description
This large commercial facility needed identical lift stations to manage wastewater in the form of sanitary sewer and discharge water from the cooling processes. This was the second of four Romtec Utilities lift stations supplied to Microsoft’s 70-acre data center. Aircraft rated hatches are included for each lift station to handle heavy forklift traffic. Outside the sump, two valve cans provide access to the below-grade check valves. An outdoor UL listed control panel utilizes an intrinsically safe barrier for in-well electrical controls and utilizes float controls for liquid level-sensing.

Why They Chose Romtec Utilities
Romtec Utilities was specified by M+W Group (Civil E.) to provide four site specific package lift stations as part of a larger construction project. The M+W Group provides engineering for technology based clients and worked with the general contractor, McKinstry Company, to design and construct this facility. Romtec Utilities provided the design, engineering, and supply of the lift station while meeting McKinstry Company’s budget for this portion of the project. Utilizing Romtec Utilities for these services allowed M+W Group and McKinstry Company to focus larger aspects of the project while meeting Microsoft’s expectations for scope and price.
