Self Cleaning Sump – eliminate blockages with the easy to install sloping collector pipe

Ask Our Team

The Gorman-Rupp Self Cleaning Sump (SCS) is a revolution in wastewater pump station wet well design. The SCS is an easy to install sloping collector pipe (fabricated from heavy duty HDPE) that is directly connected to the control manhole, and used in conjunction with Gorman-Rupp self priming sewage pumps.

The Self Cleaning Sump has been designed to replace the conventional cylindrical wet well and to remove the flaws associated with this current design. The negatives of the conventional design are considered to be the amount of intervention (number of personnel per call and the number of calls) required with these stations, the risks to operators associated with accessing the wet well for blockage removal and maintenance, and the longevity and reliability of equipment.

The aim of the SCS design is to:

  • Eliminate blockages caused by the build-up of rags and stringy matter
  • Eliminate sediment build-up
  • Eliminate fat and grease build-up
  • Eliminate air entrainment
  • Reduce energy consumption
  • Greatly reduce blockages in pumps
  • Greatly reduce maintenance costs
  • Reduce civil costs
  • Used in conjunction with Gorman-Rupp Ultra V Series and Super T Series Grey Water Pumps

Self Cleaning Sump (SCS)

It is simpler, performs better, and is suitable for projects of all types. This is the ideal solution for wastewater treatment in both urban and industrial environments.

Current pumping systems all have a main sump. Their installation involves heavy civil engineering work and not only that, they regularly silt up, requiring frequent costly maintenance.

The concept developed by Gorman-Rupp eliminates the main sump and at the same time increases pumping efficiency.

EDUR LBU DAF pumps liquid/gas mixture

Ask Our Team

The EDUR LBU multiphase pump is a multi-stage centrifugal pump with the unique capability of being able to pump a liquid/gas mixture. The centrifugal pump is constructed of either C.I./ Bz/ SS, Nodular Cast Iron, All-Bronze, Stainless Steel, or Super-Duplex Stainless Steel construction, so may be used to handle a variety of liquids.

Air, Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide and Ozone gases can be introduced into the suction line and transported and used to mix or disperse the gases. This makes the pump ideal for DAF plants, where the multiphase pumps provide the task of air saturation without the use of compressed air (no compressor, air saturation tank or associated controls).

Advantages include:

  • Liquid flows to 16 l/s
  • Gas content up to 20%
  • Cast iron/Bronze/Stainless steel, Nodular cast Iron, All-Bronze, Stainless Steel, or Super-Duplex Stainless Steel construction
  • Completely replace the “old” DAF system with a single pump

Emergency bypass auto-start sewage pump unit
ES Emergency Bypass Auto-Start Sewage Pump Units

Ask Our Team

Emergency bypass auto-start sewage pump units are designed to operate when mains power is unavailable because of storms or other forces. They are available with flow rates from 3 l/s through to 250 l/s, are diesel powered and mounted in a vandal resistant acoustic enclosure.

They have a completely independent level control system and take over when the main pumps in the station are unable to pump due to power failure, control panel failure, sewage pump failure or for any other reason.

Gorman-Rupp emergency auto-start sewage pump units are used instead of emergency power generation at sewage pump stations because of their versatility.

Advantages include:

  • Pumping capability when power is unavailable
  • Use smaller engines than generators because starting current does not need to be factored in
  • Can be used as the standby pump for the main station if one of the submersible pumps is down for repairs
  • No load banks or automatic switch gear are required
  • No modifications to existing control panels are necessary
  • Hi-tech controls include telemetry warnings for faults and low fuel
  • Can be fitted with Gorman-Rupp Ultra V Series, Super T Series or PA Series grey water pumps.
