Our products offer safer, more cost effective tailored solutions in the following areas:
WAS, RAS and Raw Sewage Pumping
WAS, RAS and raw sewage pumping with Gorman-Rupp self-priming centrifugal pumps. Capable of priming to depths of 7.6m, Gorman-Rupp pumps last longer, are easier to maintain and are safer and easier for operators to use. No cranes or opening of wet wells needed.
- Less chokes
- Lower maintenance costs
- Safer for operators
Gorman-Rupp Ultra V with Eradicator
Sewage Pump Stations
Sewage pump stations mostly use the conventional submersible pump, but self-priming pumps offer safer environments for operators and reduced life cycle costs.
- Stations are fully equipped and ready to “plug and play”
- Easy access for monitoring or service
- revolutionary Self Cleaning Sump (SCS) for a completely sustainable system
Grey Water Pumping
Greywater pumping with Gorman-Rupp Super U Series pumps. Self-priming, with high head capabilities, and high efficiency. Easy to monitor and service.
- self-priming
- high-efficiency pumps
- Lower capital costs
Hot and Cold Pumping
Cold and Hot water pumping with EDUR centrifugal pumps. Built from 92 years experience, EDUR pumps are rugged and reliable with a wide range of pumping temperatures.
- German engineering

Gorman-Rupp Ultra V with Eradicator
Heavy Duty Sludge Pumps
Wastewater can also be effectively pumped effectively with Ramparts air-driven diaphragm pumps. Only three wetted moving parts and an “indestructible” pump body make for a cost-effective life cycle. A variety of linings enable the pumping of abrasive and/or corrosive media.
- Pump high solids content sludge
- Remove chokes in seconds
- Low repair costs for “indestructible” pump
Lagoon and Basin Wastewater Aeration
Aerating lagoons, basins and oxidation ditches is made safer by Venturi-Aeration units. Self-priming pumps are mounted on the banks of lagoons and provide flow and pressure to the Venturi-Aeration units. Being mounted on banks, operators gain easy access for monitoring and maintenance.
- High SOTE
- Much easier and safer maintenance
- No boats, cranes or tethers to access equipment
Fluid Emergency Response
Lampo Emergency Response units are trailer mounted multi-purpose machines designed to speed up and simplify the deployment of emergency response equipment for municipalities, emergency services and contractors, using only one vehicle.

Gorman-Rupp Pumps improve safety at Oberon Council
Oberon Council were on a mission – looking to improve safety for the sewage pump operators at their sewage treatment plant. Their existing sewage pump operating on their sludge lagoon was suspended under a floating pontoon, and to gain access to the sewage pump, operators needed to extend a ladder from the bank to the pontoon. They then needed to “walk the plank” to get to the submersible pump, with the ever-present danger of falling into the sludge. The Safe Work Method Statements were long and detailed, and still showing a high level of risk.
Hydro Innovations suggested to Oberon Council that a Gorman Rupp self-priming centrifugal pump could be mounted on the bank at the side of the lagoon. This allows for quick, easy and safe access to the wastewater pump for monitoring and service.
Oberon Council are extremely pleased with both their investment to improve the working environment for their operators, and the quality and performance of the Gorman-Rupp pump.
