December 11, 1984 <br /> <br />Mr. Lloyd Schnelle, City Admin. <br />City of Ramsey <br />15153 Nowthen Boulevard N.W. <br />Ramsey, MN 55303 <br /> <br />Re: Water Meter Quotes <br /> <br />Dear Lloyd: <br /> <br />We have reviewed the price quotes received on November 26, 1984. <br />quotes were as follows: <br /> <br />The <br /> <br />Bidder Meter Type Price <br /> <br />Water Products Co. <br />Water Products Co. <br />Davies Water Equip. Co. <br />North Star Waterworks Products <br />Badger Meter, Inc. <br /> <br />Rockwell "TTR" <br />Rockwell "ECR" <br />Neptune "T-10" <br />Badger Model 25 <br />Badger Model 25 <br /> <br />$6,550.00 <br />$7,540.00 <br />$6,657.00 <br />$5,683.00 <br />$5,340.00 <br /> <br />Of the above quotes, the Badger Model 25 did not have electronic <br />reading or automatic recording capabilities. Also, the Rockwell "TTR" <br />was not a digital output meter as required in the specification. <br />Therefore, only the Rockwell "ECR" and the Neptune "T-10" met the <br />specifications as written. The "ECR" is a new system and we are not <br />aware of any that are currently installed. Also, the delivery time on <br />the "ECR" is 60 days versus 30 days on the Neptune "T-10". <br /> <br />In review of the Neptune "T-10", we contacted Brooklyn Park, Andover <br />and Champlin who are currently using the Neptune "T-10" meters. They <br />all stated they were happy with the meters and had very little trouble <br />if any with the meters. One of the benefits of a Neptune T-10 auto- <br />matic reading and billing system is that you can wire in your own <br />account number. On the Rockwell "ECR", the account number is preset <br />at the factory. <br /> <br /> <br />
