DMD provide electrical design and construction services for pump systems and lift stations as well as various other control systems. Pump station systems range from small plumbing systems for landscaping projects to major sewage and water pumping systems. Our typical services include the design of electrical servicing, design of systems including power and controls, preparing plans, specifications and estimates, and construction services. From a controls standpoint our expertise includes soft-start system and variable frequency drives. We work closely with system suppliers and mechanical and civil engineers to define specific operational requirements.
In addition we have set-up, tested and commissioned Programmable Logic Control (PLC) systems. We have developed operational requirement and written tested PLC code and ladder logic.
DMD prepare well detailed plans, specification and estimates tailored to the specific application. We coordinate the supply of power from local electrical utilities and undertake all required coordination of the service locations.
Our drawings are prepared using DMD’s AutoCAD software. Drawings include site plans defining equipment locations, wiring, conduit, service connections, notes and legend, single line diagram, details include cabinets and kiosks, trenching and backfilling, utility power and communications connections, concrete foundations, pump controls and monitoring systems.

Specifications define kiosk/cabinet requirements in specific detail resulting in a high level of quality while at the same time allowing the cabinet / kiosk supplier flexibility in the layout of equipment and cabinet size. These are provide by performance oriented specifications developed in consultation with manufactures and installers.
DMD are very familiar with specific Canadian Electrical Code requirements as they apply to pumping systems. DMD staff work closely with pump suppliers and owners to define system operations and requirements. Following the system installation DMD often are involved with set-up, testing and commissioning of the pumping systems.
