Ram Power Corp. San Jacinto-Tizate Geothermal Power Plant
Project Description
A commercially owned geothermal power facility in Nicaragua purchased this package lift station to meet its medium wastewater flows. Shipping the major components for this system required precise documentation and plans. Duplex submersible chopper pumps, in-well check valves, and plug valves with valve cans are some of the major below grade components of this system. The outdoor UL listed control panel utilizes floats for liquid level-sensing and includes an autodialer for communication. The complete Romtec Utilities package system was owner-installed as part of its phase I development.

Why They Chose Romtec Utilities
Ram Power Corporation undertook a project to build a geothermal power plant on natural volcanic fault lines in Nicaragua. They chose Romtec Utilities to supply the wastewater lift station for the new facility. Romtec Utilities worked with Ram Power Corp. and SNC-Lavalin (Civil E.) to design the lift station. Romtec Utilities had to perform a number of required actions to comply with Nicaraguan importing taxes, international shipping requirements, and providing the appropriate accompanying documents. This paperwork helped Ram Power Corp. fulfill its legal obligations for getting the package lift station to the Nicaraguan construction site. Romtec Utilities also communicated with the installing contractor, Construtora Queiroz Galvao, to provide installation advice and best practices.
