Submersible Grinder Pump
How Does My Ejector Pump Work?
Sewage lines used to be placed beneath the places that they were meant to collect waste from. This allowed gravity to simply pull down all waste collected by sewer pipes, transporting them to a main sewer line for processing. But in basements with washing machines and bathrooms, these devices sit below the sewer line and gravity isn’t useful. In these cases, a pump is needed to force the materials up to the level of the sewer lines in order to be processed. A sewage ejector pump accomplishes that.
Residential sewage ejector pumps can be found in two designs. A vertical suspension model, where the motor is located on the cover and attached with a shaft to the pump housing inside the basin. A close-coupled submersible ejector pump contains both the motor and the pump within the basin attached by a a shorter shaft. Both of these are available in various sizes and come in industrial and commercial models.
The two types of sewage ejector pumps are either grinders or non-clogs. A grinder pump does just as the name implies. Essentially, the mechanism shreds or grinds larger waste matter into smaller pieces that are easily able to pass through the narrow pipes. Grinder systems are usually ideal for residential applications that may not receive a lot of use. Non-clog systems typically contain slightly larger piping and are more useful in industrial settings, because they can handle material up to 4 inches wide. Non-clog systems are typically found more frequently in situations when substantial volumes of sewage are being processed on a consistent basis.
The size of the pump needed relies on two major factors. The first is the distance between the pump itself and the sewage line the waste material needs to be transported into. The other factor to be considered is the size and volume of the waste material that will constantly be processed through your waste system. Units with higher horsepower are ideal for situations where waste material needs to be moved across a further area. Larger units should be considered for circumstances that will get regular use and be processing larger forms of waste materials.
