AUMA Electric Valve Actuators – Sole Source Procurement for Village of Los Lunas, NM

The Village of Los Lunas is procuring seven AUMA electric valve actuators to replace worn units in its wastewater treatment plant. Because Pipestone Equipment is the sole authorized AUMA distributor in New Mexico, the purchase is being made as a sole‑source award.

The total equipment cost is $38,750, with a 30‑day quote validity ending 08/26/2026. • 7 actuators covering rotoseive, pre‑aeration, UV cooling and UV pit applications. • All units are weather‑proof (NEMA 6P), 480 V 3‑phase, and match the existing control specifications. • Lead time 6–8 weeks after purchase order; installation will be performed by the Village’s own maintenance staff or a local integrator.
