Low flow lift station suggestions
Low flow lift station suggestions
(OP)
I'd appreciate some suggestions for a small pump station that will serve (3) lots. I'm going to pump over to the gravity sewer which is approximately 500' away. Flow is low and so is the head.
I'm thinking a grinder pump but I'm open to any and all suggestions.
thanks

Check the static lift and pipeline friction for the full range of sump levels - the supplier can do this for you.
In UK the regulations require minimum velocity 0.75 m/s and mimimum pipe size 100 mm. This is impossible for 3 lots which will need a smaller pipe (50mm probably) In UK the regulation would require fitting of a macerator for pipes less than 100 mm.
I'm sure that you are not obliged to comply with UK regs !
