Romtec Utilities uses our customer’s site data (or from their engineer) to design site-specific pump stations for all water pumping applications. One vital piece of information used to design lift stations is the dimension of the pressurized force main. This measurement is defined by several factors: the diameter of the force main, the force main material, and the thickness of the pipe wall. Force mains are integral to the functionality of water infrastructure. The piping

Romtec Utilities designs, engineers, and manufactures pump stations as complete packages, including all structural components like wet wells, valve vaults, meter vaults, and more. We prepare each of these structures prior to delivery so they can be installed quickly and easily by the awarded contractor. Some of the preparation work involved during fabrication includes installing mechanical assemblies directly into the structure, installing mounting hardware, identifying and labeling each prefabricated unit, and applying any interior/exterior coatings

Romtec Utilities specializes in providing site-specific pump stations for all types of applications, including wastewater collection systems. One increasingly frequent challenge with wastewater lift stations is how they handle “flushable” wipes, FOG (Fats, Oils, and Greases), and other materials that get flushed into the sewer system. Sewer collection systems are often designed with countermeasures to prevent break down or damage from encountering these difficult to handle materials. Finding long-term solutions can be difficult, but only

Romtec Utilities engineers pump stations for many different applications. Frequently in new construction applications, the site of the pump station includes design challenges as construction is pushed into more difficult locations. A typical challenge is overcoming geographical elevations to reach an existing gravity sewer system. This is the basic premise of almost every lift station, but in certain locations, the elevation changes are so dramatic that the lift station must handle very high head conditions.

Pumps are vital components in every pump station that Romtec Utilities designs, engineers, and manufactures, and our systems make use of all types of pumps for all applications. One prominent difference in pump designs is the way the motor is cooled. Pump cooling systems prevent overheating by transferring heat from the motor to outside the pump. There are several types of cooling systems commonly used in pumps. These are direct contact, integrated cooling, internal cooling,
