Introducing the Gorman-Rupp Ultra V Eradicator
Introducing the Ultra V Eradicator to Australian Industries. The new Eradicator for Ultra V Gorman-Rupp pumps is designed to help pump more wastewater with fewer chokes.
With Gorman-Rupp Ultra V Eradicator:
- Passes up to 76mm spherical solids
- High pressure pumping
- Fewer chokes and blockages
- Available to retrofit
Gorman-Rupp T Series Pump Demonstration – Eric vs Chicken
Watch what happens when Eric shoves a rubber chicken into the pipeline of a Gorman-Rupp pump with Eradicator Superior Solids Handling capabilities:
With Gorman-Rupp Eradicator:
- Passes up to 76mm spherical solids
- Only 1 operator is needed to maintain the pump
- Fewer chokes and blockages
- Available to retrofit
Gorman-Rupp Vs. Competitor Pump
Industrial Pump Specialist Garry Grant explains the difference between Gorman-Rupp wastewater pumps and the alternative pump. Garry explains all the features and benefits of Gorman-Rupp pumps and shows why they are the better option when choosing a wastewater pump.
With Gorman-Rupp Above ground pumps:
- Installation and maintenance is simple and cost-effective
- Only 1 operator is needed to maintain the pump
- No wet well is needed
Submersible Pump vs. Above-Ground Gorman-Rupp Pump
Gorman-Rupp above ground pumps are safer, easier to operate and maintain and are more cost-effective than a conventional submersible pump system.
With Gorman-Rupp Above ground pumps:
- Installation and maintenance is simple and cost effective
- Only 1 operator is needed to maintain the pump
- No wet well is needed

Application: STP
Industry: Municipal
Region: NSW
Project Showcase: Lismore City Council
Municipality works with Hydro Innovations to solve its wastewater challenge.
The Lismore City Council sewage pump would choke on a daily basis during its job of turning over the digester. They were using a Gorman-Rupp T3A3S-B self-priming pump, but the sheer number of rags made it very difficult for even this excellent solids-handling sewage pump to pass all the rags, all the time.
The new Eradicator system was retrofitted to the existing Gorman-Rupp T3. The sludge pump then ran for 3 months without a single choke. In the same period, they would have expected to have between 12 and 24 chokes. Matt, Brad and their colleagues at the council were very pleased with the result.

Special Features and Pump Benefits
Ultra V with Eradicator has less chokes and blockages, and is easy to maintain:

Solids-Handling Impeller
The heavy-duty balanced, two-vane, semi-open ductile iron impellers provide maximum life. Pump-out vanes on the back shroud reduce foreign material build-up behind the impeller, minimising pressure on the seal and maximising bearing life.

Removable Cover Plate
All Super T series pumps have a large removable cover plate for accessing pump internals for the quick removal of blockages. Check valves, impellers and wear plates can also be replaced through this cover.

Replaceable Wear Plate
A replaceable wear plate has Gorman-Rupp’s patent-pending, self-cleaning design to ensure that debris is cleared away and does not collect on the impeller vanes. This innovative design reduces life cycle costs by minimising blockages.

Anti-Rotation Ribs
All Ultra V Series wastewater pumps come standard with anti-rotation ribs within the seal chamber area, reducing internal wear and maximising seal life

Patented External Shim-less Adjustment System
The shim-less cover plate adjustment allows for accurate maintenance of the clearance between the impeller and wear plate, without realigning belts, couplings or other drive components. Once adjustments have been made, the unique collar and adjusting screw maintains the clearance setting even if the cover plate is removed. Peak efficiency is maintained, while doubling the life of the impeller and wear plate. The life of the wear plate is maximised with the combination of the shim-less cover adjustment and the additional rotating assembly spacers.

Patented Cartridge Seal
Gorman-Rupp’s double floating, self aligning, oil-lubricated mechanical seal is specifically designed for abrasive and/or trash handling applications. The silicon carbide faces and extra large seal oil chamber provide superior dry-run capability. The patented cartridge design also allows for accurate and easy installation.

Removable Rotating Assembly
Gorman-Rupp Super T series wastewater pumps are designed with a removable rotating element. This assembly can be removed and replaced in minutes without disconnecting piping or disturbing motor alignment.
