PRV Electrical/Instrumentation Need Analysis

Request for Proposals

The City of Surrey (the “City”) is seeking to retain a professional consultant (the “Consultant”) to perform services for the detailed study of electrical requirements for existing and future PRV.

The Consultant will provide the following services in accordance with the information provided within the RFP document.

• • High level review of available technologies for PRV electrical/instrumentation;
  • Identify the order of magnitude cost for different components of electrical/instrumentation; and
  • Review of current electrical design criteria for PRVs (optional).

SCOPE OF SERVICES

PRV stations may require electric power to support the following electrical and instrumental equipment:

1. Sump pump only;
2. Sump pump and pressure transmitters;
3. Sump pump, pressure transmitters, and zone meter;
4. Sump pump, pressure transmitters, zone meter and heating/cooling; or
5. Sump pump, pressure transmitters, zone meter, heating/cooling, and UPS.

Information collected from pressure transmitters and zone meters are required to be conveyed to the City, either on a real-time or daily basis. Currently, information is sent to City’s SCADA system in real-time.

The Consultant shall provide a report including, but not limited to the following:

• New instrumentation technology available (wireless, cellular, hardwired);
• SCADA or other systems for collecting and sending data;
• Kiosk or wall-mounted panel considerations, if required (size, location, etc.);
• Power options (BC Hydro, battery, solar, etc.);
• High level cost for each electrical and instrumentation equipment combination listed above, and potential cost savings if other technology and methodology of data collection are used; and
• Review current electrical design and identify if there is any potential for cost savings (optional).
