About this file

This document is a Request for Bid (RFB) No. 2025-061 issued by the City of Waco Purchasing Services for Riverside Actuators. The bid is for four butterfly valves at the Riverside Water Treatment Plant: an Effluent Valve (14" Pratt), a Backwash Valve (24" American), a Filter to Waste Valve (10"), and an Air Scour Valve (10" lug style). The bid is scheduled to close on September 4, 2025, at 2:00 P.M. CST, with bid opening immediately following at 2:01 P.M. CST via Zoom video and dial-in. The bid includes detailed technical specifications for each valve, including process media (potable water), maximum pressure (15-20 PSI), maximum temperature (110°F ambient, 90°F liquid), and service demand requirements.

The bid documents provide comprehensive technical details about the existing valves, including brand, size, serial numbers, stem dimensions, bolt patterns, and mounting interfaces. The goal is to ensure full compatibility between proposed electric actuators and existing butterfly valves. Power availability is 115V, and current feedback is through 120V controls. The purchasing timeline is dependent on city council approval, with no specific purchase order issuance date confirmed. The bid package includes multiple photographs documenting valve specifications, stem sizes, bolt spacing, and mounting patterns to assist potential bidders in understanding the precise technical requirements for replacement actuators.

Questions – RFB 2025-061 Riverside Actuators

1. In each line-item case, please confirm:

a. Process Media Potable Water

b. Max Pressure

15-20 PSI

c. Max Temperature

110 DEG F (AMBIENT)

90 DEG F (LIQUID)

d. Valve Make & Model (if any)

a. Actuator #1 = Effluent Valve = 14” PRATT B-fly valve

b. Actuator #2 = Backwash Valve = 24” American B-fly valve

c. Actuator #3 = Filter to Waste Valve = 10” B-fly valve

d. Actuator #4 = Air Scout Valve = 10” lug style industrial b-fly valve

2. Please confirm service demand:

a. ON/OFF?

b. Modulating?

Actuator #1 = Effluent Valve – Modulating Actuator #2 = Backwash Valve – Modulating Acutator #3 = Filter to Waste Valve – Open/Close Actuator #4 = Air Scour Valve – Open/Close

3. Please confirm Power Available (24VDC, 115VAC, 220VAC, 480VAC, etc.

a. 115V

4. Please confirm feedback requirement (Continuous 4-20ma, Limit Switches, both)

a. Current feedback is through the 120v controls. We do not have 4-20 mA ran to each individual actuator

5. To ensure full compatibility between the proposed electric actuators and the existing butterfly valves at the Riverside Water Treatment Plant, we respectfully request the following technical information:

1. Manufacturer and model numbers of the existing valves

2. Break torque values for each valve size (10", 14", and 24")

3. Stem dimensions and flange patterns

4. Mounting interface details (e.g., ISO standard, bolt circle, stem type)

5. Any available datasheets or drawings for the installed valves

This information will allow us to confirm actuator sizing, mounting compatibility, and avoid any field installation issues. Thank you in advance for your assistance. (See attached information and images.)

6. When will the purchase order be issued. The MFG will need to know this when offering special lead time. We do not have a specific time frame. This purchase would require council approval.
