1: What is drainage water?
Wastewater without toilet waste or impurities like paper, diapers and textile fibres.
1: What is drainage water?
Slightly polluted water from a bathroom where the water is running to the drain.
You can find the answer here >
2: What is the purpose of the start level sensor?
It will send an alarm when the water reaches this level and the pump do not start.
2: What is the purpose of the start level sensor?
It will stop the pump when the water level is lowered to below this level after a pump start.
2: What is the purpose of the start level sensor?
It activates the pump when the water reaches this level.
3: Can a sewage pump handle all types of wastewater?
Yes if the pH value is within 4 – 9 and max. dry content 3 to 5%.
3: Can a sewage pump handle all types of wastewater?
Yes with solids up to 100 mm (4”) and max. dry content 3 to 5%.

4: What are the main virtues of the S-tube® impeller?
It offers both excellent efficiency and large free passage.
4: What are the main virtues of the S-tube® impeller?
The S-tube® impeller is available in both cast iron and stainless steel.
You can find the answer here >
4: What are the main virtues of the S-tube® impeller?
The S-tube® impeller do not generate vibrations resulting in longer lifetime on shaft seals and bearings.
You can find the answer here >
5: What might be the reason a wastewater pump solution requires a big free passage?
The big free passage will eliminate blocking of impeller.
You can find the answer here >
5: What might be the reason a wastewater pump solution requires a big free passage?
The need for high flow and/or a high content of solids.
5: What might be the reason a wastewater pump solution requires a big free passage?
With the big free passage the pump can also pump wastewater contaminated with sand and gravel.

6: What is parallel operation?
When two or more pump stations are operating at the same time.
You can find the answer here >
6: What is parallel operation?
When two or more pumps operate side by side simultaneously.
6: What is parallel operation?
When one pump is pumping into another pump and they are operating at the same time.
You can find the answer here >
7: What is the main disadvantage of over-dimensioning a wastewater pit?
Unnecessary investment in the larger civil work.
You can find the answer here >
7: What is the main disadvantage of over-dimensioning a wastewater pit?
Too big distance between the pumps with two or more pumps installed.
You can find the answer here >
7: What is the main disadvantage of over-dimensioning a wastewater pit?
The wastewater stays in the pit too long, which leads to sedimentation.
8: What makes the S-tube® impeller virtually clog-free?
The excellent hydraulic efficiency and free passage.
8: What makes the S-tube® impeller virtually clog-free?
The big free passage up to 160 mm (6.3”).
You can find the answer here >
8: What makes the S-tube® impeller virtually clog-free?
The S-tube® impeller has either a SmartTrim function or a replaceable neck ring to secure the right impeller clearance.
