Title

Catalina Lift Station Controller Replacement - Proposal

 

History

On October 7, 2016 the Lift Station Controller failed at the Catalina Lift Station. This controller was evaluated by the Village’s Water Plant Operators and was determined to be nonfunctional. The authorized service representative, Gasvoda and Associates, Inc., of Calumet City, Illinois, reported that the current nonfunctional controller is obsolete and recommended replacement. 

 

Gasvoda & Associates, Inc. provided a proposal to perform the required work. Based on their recommendation, the Catalina Lift Station requires a new microprocessor based duplex pump level logic controller, Grundfos model CU362.  The existing panel may need some field modifications to have the new controller face mounted in place of the existing one. 

 

Gasvoda & Associates is a local vendor and has the programming parameters required for installation.  Staff recommends purchasing the new controller and installation through Gasvoda & Associates. 

 

The total cost of the controller was quoted at $2,608.00.  The installation, programming, trouble shooting and start up are estimated at approximately $2,500.00 dependent on the time it takes to install the equipment.  Funding in the amount of $6,000 is requested to cover any unanticipated expenses.

 

Due to the emergency nature and required timeliness of installation, this item has been ordered and is pending installation upon delivery.

 

On November 7, 2016, this item was reviewed by the Public Works Committee and recommended for approval and referred to the Village Board of Trustees for consideration.

 

Financial Impact

Funds for this unexpected repair are available in the sanitary sewer budget (6003).

 

Recommended Action/Motion

I move to approve to accept the Proposal from Gasvoda & Associates, Inc. of Calumet City, Illinois for the Catalina Lift Station Controller Replacement for an amount not to exceed $6,000.00.
