Milhouse was responsible for upgrading 13 Lift Stations for the Philadelphia International Airport, which included performing detailed surveys to calculate the current capacities of 20-25 year old Lift Stations.
Even with the challenge of not having existing data and as-built drawings available, each lift station’s design was upgraded with new larger, and more efficient pumps, with new pumps selected with the capability to interlock with any one of the two existing BMS systems.
Areas of work also encompassed the following:
» Airfield Systems: Navigational aides, lighting systems, signage, power distribution systems, emergency power systems, signaling, airfield lighting control systems (ALCS), communication systems, Surface Movement and Guidance Controls System (SMGCS), grounding and utility distribution.
