1 Waste Water Pumps, Lift Stations, and Controls A.S.P.E. overview

2 Applications 4 BASIC TYPES OF WASTE WATER PUMPS Sump Effluent Solids handling - Sewage Grinder

3 Sump Pumps A pump designed to remove water that has accumulated in a sump pit.

4 ELEVATOR Sump Pumps Designed and approved for safe operation of pumping, alarming and monitoring of elevator sump pits, transformer vaults and other applications where oil and water must be detected. ASME17.1 CSA B44

5 S.T.E.P. Sytems Septic Tank Effluent Pump A pump designed for the transfer of Effluent: typically pretreated liquid waste from an onsite sewage treatment systems.

6 Solids Handling / Sewage Pumps Solids-handling sewage pumps pass solids in full-form no chopping, cutting or grinding. SOLIDS GO IN SOLIDS COME OUT! Commercial Residential

7 Grinder Pumps Grinders macerate and cut the solids into a fine slurry allowing the waste to be pumped under high pressure through smaller diameter discharge pipe. Grinders can handle difficult solids, produce high heads and are more common in multi-property developments (such as Lakefronts and housing tracts below sewer grade.) Other common applications include public restrooms and commercial buildings.

8 Grinder Pumps in Action Do Not Try This at Home.

9 Wet well Submersible Pumps Dry well Non Submersible Pumps Lift Stations Pumping stations are built when sewage must be raised from a low point to a point of higher elevation or where the topography prevents downhillgravityflow. Special nonclogging pumps are available to handle raw sewage. They are installed in structures calledlift stations. There are two basic types of lift station: dry well and wet well. Awet-well installation has only one chamber or tank to receive and hold the sewage until it is pumped out. Specially designed submersible pumps and motors can be located at the bottom of the chamber, completely below the water level. Dry-wellinstallations have two separate chambers, one to receive thewastewaterand one to enclose and protect the pumps and controls. All commercial lift stations, whether of the wet-well or dry-well type, should include at least two pumps. One pump can operate while the other is removed for repair.

10 Concrete vs. Fiberglass Concrete Sump Fiberglass Sump (Pre-packaged) Sump formed by masons Pumps, pipes, rails, floats installed later Pre- assembled Fibreglass basin. Equipped with Pumps, and panel. Pipes, rails, floats, valves pre- installed

37 Motors Shaded pole motors These motors have only one winding, no capacitor, and no starting switch, making them economical and reliable. However because their starting torque is low they are best suited to driving fans or other loads that are easily started. Typically only used in sump pumps PSC motors A capacitor motor in which the starting capacitor and the auxiliary winding remain in the circuit for both starting and running. Capacitor start/capacitor run This type has a start capacitor for the auxiliary winding for high starting torque. It also has a run capacitor that is in series with the auxiliary winding after the start capacitor is switched out of the circuit. This allows high breakdown or overload torque, and it operates at lower temperature than other single-phase motor types of comparable horsepower.

38 3 phase motors IMPORTANT: For 3-phase pumps, check for proper rotation before installing pump into basin.. Rotation To change rotation, reverse any two of the three power leads to the pump. Code the wires for reconnection after installation.
