Ruidoso wastewater plant blower equipment and service

The Village of Ruidoso is seeking blower equipment and related support for its regional wastewater treatment plant. - Government buyer: Village of Ruidoso, Ruidoso–Ruidoso Downs Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant. - OEM: Aerzen USA; proposed service and supply vendor: RPM Services, Inc. - Equipment requested: Aerzen MBR Blower 100HP GM 60S and Aerzen Pre-Aeration Blower GM 35S. A budgetary quote also lists a new GM 35S blower, part number 2000024514, at $22,230.57. Quantities for the requested blower equipment are not specified. - Services: Five-year blower inspection, repair, parts, and service arrangement. A separate inspection line covers disassembly and inspection of GM 35S serial number SN-1548195; damaged gears and a gear-end sideplate were reported, and repair was deemed uneconomical. The $925 inspection charge is waived if RPM Services overhauls the unit or sells a replacement blower. - Important requirements: Equipment must meet specified performance and SCFM output needs, work with the facility’s SCADA system, allow maintenance access, and fit the existing blower room. The pre-aeration blower supports nitrification and denitrification for TKN removal. - Estimated value: The notice cites $200,000, while the certification describes approximately $200,000 per year; the five-year total is therefore potentially about $1,000,000.
