Case Studies

Municipal water projects we’ve delivered.

Shoalhaven, NSW

Shoalhaven Outdoor CT Metered ATS Panels

This board is 1 of 4 different ATS panels we manufactured for a Regional NSW Council. One panel is for a water treatment plant that provides drinking water to a regional town in NSW — an AS/NZS 61439 Type-tested outdoor switchboard that enables us to build outdoor switchboards rated up to IP66 without requiring an outdoor kiosk. Another was for a critical sewage pump station: a 1600A ATS board featuring a Schneider Electric TransferPacT ATS.

Bayswater, VIC

Bayswater Level Crossing Removal

Board for a rail cutting stormwater and groundwater pump station for a level crossing removal project

Townsville, QLD

Cleveland Bay Water Recycling MCC

The City of Townsville Council’s $25 million Recycled Water Project was to build a Recycled Water Treatment Facility and approximately 7km of supporting pipeline infrastructure. This is to support future hydrogen production operations and produce up to 15ML/day of water for industrial and irrigation users. We supplied a Main Switchboard, MCC, PLC Panel, Multiple LCS Boxes, UPS and a UPS DB.

Yanco, NSW

Roach’s Surge Reservoir LV Main Switchboard

LV Main switchboard for a 5,000ml surge reservoir for Murrumbidgee Irrigation in New South Wales. The reservoir provides water to numerous landholders in the area. It will enable higher flowrates to irrigators in peak events, as well as enabling more accurate water takes.

Tuross, NSW

Tuross Head Sewage Pump Station

To accommodate the growing population and protect the surrounding waterways, the Eurobodalla shire council decided to improve the infrastructure. This pump station is the final pump station before reaching the treatment plant. The board required an input for a standby generator to keep the system operating during power outages.

Lake Canobolas, NSW

Lake Canobolas Sewer Pump Station

This new sewer main was built by Orange City Council to provide an opportunity to remove existing on-site sewage management systems (septic tanks) around the Lake Canobolas Reserve and Scout Camp areas. The pump station will improve waterway health and reduce potential issues associated with downstream water catchments, including potential for seepage into Cabonne Council’s Molong Creek Dam reservoir.
