A new mixed-use community development needed a stormwater pump station to handle medium flows of stormwater from the community.
Home Depot|Perris, CA|900 GPM - 16' TDH
The construction of a new Home Depot required a large detention pond and a new pump station to handle stormwater from the commercial development. This economical pump station uses 7.5hp Ebara pumps in a duplex configuration to meet the required flow rates to empty the detention pond. Parallel force mains were included with valve cans to provide simple and inexpensive piping and control valves. This submersible system uses cost-effective precast concrete barrels and a monolithic base to construct strong and reliable sump.
Union Pacific Railroad|Cheyenne, WY|4,000 GPM - 25' TDH
The Union Pacific Depot in Cheyenne, Wyoming needed two new stormwater pump stations to replace existing systems. The first station used Ebara 25 hp submersible pumps in a triplex configuration to handle stormwater runoff from a parking lot and additional drains. The second station used Ebara 7.5 hp submersible pumps in a duplex configuration to pump stormwater that drains from the pit of a railway turntable. Both systems include precast concrete valve vaults. Each vault was preassembled with Val-Matic Cam-Centric® plug valves, Val-Matic Swing-Flex® check valves, and Ashcroft pressure gauges. Both stormwater systems discharge into an evaporation pond that was installed as a part of this larger water collection replacement, which also included three additional Romtec Utilities wastewater lift stations.
Walmart|Gardnerville, NV|1,300 GPM - 23.4' TDH
A new Walmart Supercenter required this package stormwater pump station to handle runoff from its large impervious parking lot. A good sized detention basin collects the runoff water during a storm event, including from surrounding properties. Ebara submersible pumps then empty the detention pond at a high flow rate through just 45’ of force main into a gravity line that flows to treatment. An outdoor UL listed control panel includes float controls for primary and backup liquid level-sensing and a basic alarm for communications.
Municipal Utility District | Sacramento, CA | 172 GPM - 94' TDH
The newly constructed headquarters for the Sacramento Municipal Utility District purchased this package lift station to meet its medium sewage flow requirements. Submersible solids-handling pumps in a duplex configuration were specified in a deep well because this facility represents one of the ten largest public utilities in the country.
