When gravity fall for wastewater and sewage services in a commercial building design is not available then a pumped solution is required.
Floor mounted lifting stations, installed in a plant room or basement, provide a reliable pumping solution for drainage from kitchens, toilets, and showering/changing facilities.
Pump Technology Ltd, based in Berkshire, have been experts in commercial building pumping solutions for over 30 Years and are authorised by leading manufactures, such as Jung Pumpen GmbH and Saniflo SFA, for the specification, supply and support of their pumping equipment. Both of these manufactures provide a range of lifting stations.
Choosing the correct lifting station is not simply about how far and how high it needs to pump. The specific application must be considered to ensure reliability and long equipment life.
As an example, for a small office with a handful of staff members using the facilities the Saniflo SFA range would be a suitable and cost saving pump solution.
If the building was a restaurant, gym or similar being used by the public with potentially high usage, then the correct selection would be one of the Jung Pumpen EffluMaxi / Compli lifting stations.
When potential customers call or email the Technical Team at Pump Technology Ltd, they will connect with an engineer straight away about their site requirements. A full product specification and quotation providing the required pumping solution will be emailed within a few hours. The company pride themselves on this speed of personal service which is highly valued within the industry!
Lifting Stations are relatively compact. They are available in cutter format for small bore discharge pipework, 32mm diameter pipe for example, or high discharge heads, typically over 10m. Free flow vortex impeller versions provide for larger pipe diameters such as DN80/DN100. The stations are also available in single pump or duty standby configurations. These can even be linked together for large capacity applications such as sports stadiums or shopping centres.
Jung Pumpen have recently developed the EffluMaxi / Compli range, making installation and maintenance even easier and quicker. The EffluMaxi / Compli 400 now features a height adjustable, sliding, clamping, inlet flange (Stepless) and multiple inlet connection options. It also has a variable discharge branch (DN80 or DN100), a low weight, rotatable, non-return valve and buoyancy fixing protection without having to move the unit. The integrated tank volute provides better flow behavior, no corrosion and less clogging.
An updated control panel adds features such as a maintenance interval display and additional connection for an additional, remote high-level alarm.
Pump Technology Ltd, hold the Uk’s largest stocks of Jung Pumpen and Saniflo SFA commercial pumping products ready for next day delivery. They also have a network of approved National Pumping Partners for commissioning and maintenance if required.
Other products available from the company include the DrainMajor floor mounted wastewater range and if gravity discharge is possible, the below ground Minmatic and PumpMatic pumping stations. The PumpMatic range is manufactured in-house by a group Pump Technology Ltd. company and a standard range of tank sizes and pump options are available. However, these tanks can also be customized in depth, diameter and inlet connection points to suite site elevations and orientation.
