ADVERTORIAL
The successful pumping of wastewater and sewage depends upon many things; correct pump sizing, correct pump design and pump build quality are major factors in the reliability of the pump when in situ.
Independent wastewater and sewage specialist Pump Technology Ltd is known in the industry for the reliability of its pump specification and its equipment quality.
Missing one or more elements of reliability could result in the need for drainage engineers to be repeatedly re- visiting a site.
Selecting a trusted and proven pump manufacture’s brand is a good starting point. Aldermaston based Pump technology Ltd is authorised by the leading European pump manufactures - Jung Pumpen, KSB, ABS / Sulzer, Fyght / Lowara, Ebara, Whale, Saniflo and many more, to represent them.
However, with a multitude of pump brands and models to choose from, the reliable choice is not obvious. Not all pumps offer the same size and pumping performance. The design of the pump, impeller type, seal configuration and construction materials vary immensely. Each pump is designed to operate reliably within a small performance envelope, not only flow and head characteristics, but also suitability for the waste media being pumped.
The Pump Technology Ltd application team represents probably the Uk’s largest and most experienced knowledge base for wastewater and sewage pumps. This ensures that, as an independent distributor, they can truly select the best pump option for application and budget!
Generally, the easier part of the selection process is pump performance, how much and far to pump is pretty easy to specify. However, understanding the nuances of an application can then become something of an art form as a well as a science.
For example, for drainage applications, is there sand, grit or leaves present? For wastewater applications, is this from a domestic or commercial, sink or dishwasher, is the wastewater hot? All these are questions that can easily and quickly be solved during a conversation on the phone.
A simple example of this might be a wastewater discharge application from a sink or sinks. For a domestic
DrainMinor 30SL
sink in a bathroom or kitchen a Saniflo would be a reliable choice.
However, for a sink in a coffee chain such as Costa Coffee, the Pump Technology Ltd application team would select a DrainMinor 30SL! This system consists of a compact collecting tank suitable for mounting in a cupboard under the sink, but features the Jung Pumpen submersible pump 30SL. The SL stands for Special. In this case the shaft seal between impeller and electric motor has been upgraded from the normal triple lip seal design, common with small drainage pumps, to a Silicon Carbide mechanical seal facing the pumped medium with a lip seal arrangement motor side.
The waste medium in the coffee chain sink, tends to be coffee granules and milk skin. In time this will work under the lip seals causing moisture and water ingress into the submersible pump’s electric motor, eventually resulting in its failure. The mechanical seal faces in the 30SL are held together by a set spring tension so don’t allow the waste material to pass between their faces. This is the sort of detail which makes a pump reliable.
Pump Technology Ltd customers regularly comment that being able to talk directly to the company’s engineers on the phone facilitates exact pump specification faster and with far fewer risks of incorrect selection.
