A large neighborhood received these two lift stations that were designed to handle medium sewage flow requirements. The submersible solids-handling pumps in duplex configurations were specified to handle influent from three inlet lines from different sections of the neighborhood. The below-grade valve assemblies hold the system operation valves, bypass pumping ports, and shut-off valves. The outdoor UL listed control panels utilize pressure transducers and redundant float controls for liquid level-sensing; basic alarms were included for communications.
King Sooper?s Marketplace|Fort Collins, CO|150 GPM - 6.8' TDH
The food & drug store serving a nearby university needed this replacement package wastewater lift station for medium flow rates. Submersible solids handling pumps are designed to operate with suspended grease in the water from a cafeteria in the market. The lift station valves are vertically integrated into the sump discharge piping. An indoor UL listed control panel contains an intrinsically safe barrier for the in-well electrical controls, and an autodialer and basic alarm fulfill communication requirements. Floats are the primary and backup level-sensing control devices.
The City of Bakersfield|Bakersfield, CA|55 GPM - 38.5' TDH
A new school required this low flow package lift station in order to handle the neighborhood’s increased flow of municipal wastewater. Ebara vortex pumps in a duplex configuration are used for deep well pumping. They are explosion proof in order to meet the Class 1, Division 1 hazardous location requirements. A below-grade valve vault provides easy access to system plug valves, shut-off valves, and swing check valves. An outdoor UL listed control panel manages the lift station’s mechanical and electrical systems with float controls for liquid level-sensing and a basic alarm.
Plantation Pipe Line|Polk County, GA|175 GPM - 90' TDH
This package stormwater lift station was configured to meet the medium runoff flow of this industrial property. One submersible centrifugal pump makes this a simplex station with an in-well check valve. The single pump handles high head conditions caused by 9,000 feet of 4” force main. Additional system valves are located in a below grade valve vault. An outdoor control panel includes floats for liquid level-sensing and a basic alarm for communication. A Thern crane was included with this station to raise and lower the pump.
Smith River Rancheria|Smith River, CA|60 GPM - 132' TDH
This wastewater lift station was required to hand medium sewage flows from a development neighborhood by Smith River Rancheria, the governing body of the Tolowa Dee-ni’ Tribe. Two Goulds Water Technology 2 hp grinder pumps were used to meet the high head requirements for over 3,000 ft of force main. A owner-supplied control building contains the control panel and an permanent onsite Cummins generator for backup power. A Mercoid pressure transducer provides primary level-sensing controls with Dwyer floats for backup.
