Living in a private house has its advantages, but it also requires additional work. One of them is to ensure normal operation autonomous sewerage... In order for you not to have unpleasant situations, you need regularly pump out the sewage system. Consider what modern equipment exists for such work and how to choose it correctly.

The essence of the sewage pumping process

With an autonomous sewage system, dirty water flows into a cesspool or septic tank. The volume of a pit or septic tank is filled with wastewater over time and must be pumped out. Otherwise, the pit will overflow, which will be accompanied by an unpleasant odor and can cause unusable entire sewerage system.

You can pump out the contents of the septic tank using special equipment, independently or by contacting specialists. There is a wide selection of pumps for pumping out sewage, let's get acquainted with their main characteristics.

Did you know? In the Japanese city of Suva, gold is mined from the dry sludge of sewage waste. Its concentration in waste is 50 times higher than in traditional gold mines. The thing is that a lot of electronics are produced in the city, which contain precious metal.

Pumping equipment

There are two main types of pumps: fecal and drainage.

Suitable for pumping out dirty water from a washing machine or dishwasher. These pumps pump out dirty water with little solids content.

differ in the diameter of the flow channels and can cope with dirty water along with feces and other solid particles in a large number... Some models are equipped with special grinders that crush solid particles of household waste.

Classification of pumps by installation method

According to the installation method and type of system, there are submersible, surface and semi-submersible pumps.

Submersible

Submersibles work at full immersion into waste water. They are made of a material that can resist corrosion and aggressive environments, the body is reliably insulated. Each model has its own maximum immersion depth, type of construction (horizontal, vertical). The pump is fixed once at the bottom of the pit with the help of an angle bend and guides.

The work is controlled using a remote control.

The advantages of this design:

• no cooling system needed;
• can work in winter;
• minimal noise during operation;
• works at great depths.

Disadvantages:

• complex installation and configuration;
• increased requirements for electrical safety, anti-corrosion and insulating characteristics of the case.

Surface (external)

Surface systems are located above a sewer well, and intake hoses are lowered under the water. By design, they do not have grinders; they cannot be used to pump out highly polluted waters with large particles.

Advantages:

• ease of installation;
• mobility.

Disadvantages:

• high noise level during operation;
• dependence on weather conditions (the pump does not work at negative temperatures);
• overheats quickly (there is no cooling system);
• poor performance and short uptime.

Semi-submersible

Semi-submersible devices are not completely immersed in the drains, the engine is above the water surface. They are fixed on the surface with a float. For such models, shredders are not provided.

Advantages:

• ease of installation;
• mobility;
• high performance.

Disadvantages:

• water entering the engine destroys the pump;
• dependence on weather conditions.

Did you know? In 1516, Leonardo da Vinci invented the flush toilet for King Francis I of France. But the invention was not implemented due to the lack of water supply and sewerage systems.

The main types of fecal pumps

Fecal pumps are capable of pumping dirty, viscous liquid with solid particles up to 5-8 cm in size. They can be used not only for pumping out sewage, water from the basement, but also for circulating water in large tanks, and for irrigating a land plot.

Compact models can be installed in the house, near the toilet, sink or shower. These forced sewerage systems are used if it is impossible to provide the required angle of inclination for the operation of the gravity sewerage system. The units pump wastewater into a pit or septic tank.

Depending on the design, principle of operation and purpose, there is several types of units: with and without shredders, for working with cold and hot drains.

Chopper pumps

Fecal crusher systems are equipped with a special device that crushes solid objects in the waste liquid.

The system body is made of high quality and durable materials. The compact container contains chopper and fecal pump. The system can be installed in the house, close to the toilet, sink, shower stall or sink. The shredder grinds the solid waste into a homogeneous mass, and the pump pumps it in the right direction. The non-return valve does not allow the drains to go back, special filters do not allow them to enter the room unpleasant odors... The system is connected to a regular 220 V socket.

Important! The temperature of the drains should not exceed +40° C, otherwise the system will fail.

To work with hot waste water, special systems are used that can work at a wastewater temperature up to +95 ° С. The module for grinding solid waste allows you to connect the unit to a dishwasher and washing machine, sink, shower, toilet.

Powerful shredder blades handle solids well. The pump pumps waste water into the sewer.

Such a setting costs more, than analogous for working with cold drains.

Chopperless pumps handle cold and hot drains and are used to pump cold and hot liquids without large solids.

For working with cold waste water

The cold waste water plant is very compact and does not require much space. It can be connected to sinks and showers. It has a low price, but the temperature of the drains should not exceed +40 ° С. It can pump out dirty liquid without large, solid particles in the vertical direction up to 5 m and in the horizontal direction up to 100 m.

For hot waste water applications

Installations for working with hot waste water without a grinder are used to pump out sewage from a bath, dishwasher and washing machine, sink. The system is very compact, a powerful pump perfectly pumps out hot dirty liquids, the permissible temperature is +90 ° C. The pump will help to establish the sewage system, if there is no required slope.

Selection rules

When choosing a pumping unit it is necessary to take into account the main characteristics:

• conditions of use, type of installation, temperature of waste streams;
• productivity, volume of effluents, immersion depth;
• engine cooling;
• body material;
• the diameter of the inlet, the presence of a grinder;
• control method;
• self-cleaning of the chopper impeller.

For frequent or constant use, most suitable submersible models. And for rare use, you can choose a cheaper and less powerful surface type of pumping system.

It is necessary to select performance in accordance with the volume of the septic tank or sewer pit and the degree of filling. Special attention must be turned to the maximum immersion depth at which the pump is operating normally.

It is necessary to find out how the engine is cooled and check the corrosion resistance of the housing material.

Chopper availability, inlet diameter and effluent temperature are one of the main selection criteria the optimal model, it depends on them how dirty the drains are and what temperature it will be possible to pump out.

The most convenient control method is with the remote control. The self-cleaning function of the chopper mechanism is an advantage when choosing a model, but the cost will be higher.

Terms of use

For efficient operation of the pumping system, it is necessary to correctly calculate required power, do not overload the pump, but also do not use dry. The diameter and slope of the sewer pipes, as well as the correct design of the septic tank, are of great importance.

It is necessary to monitor the contents of septic tanks so that large and solid objects, acids do not enter the sewer.

When using surface and float units, it is necessary provide good electrical insulation, to prevent moisture from entering the engine. And also make sure that it does not overheat, and do not use it at negative air temperatures.

Submersible pumps must be properly installed and secured to the bottom of the pit.

Forced sewage systems installed in the house near kitchen sinks, necessary periodically cleanse from fat.

Preventive maintenance measures

It is recommended at least once a year to check the serviceability of the cable, the condition of the housing, at what distance from the bottom of the pit the suction device is located in order to prevent capture of large and solid objects, stones.

Preventive cleaning of the system will significantly extend the service life and prevent breakdown.

Self-assembly of the factory unit

The factory unit can be installed on one's own, it is only necessary to adhere to the manufacturer's recommendations.

Submersible

The pumping equipment is installed almost at the very bottom of the sewer well. It is necessary to leave a small gap so that solid objects from the bottom of the well are not sucked into the intake hole. For this, there are metal supports on the body, or a design with guides is used, and the pump can also be suspended using a strong cable.

The branch pipe is best made of plastic pipes with a diameter of 6-7 cm, which can be disassembled if necessary. Flexible hoses are not recommended due to the potential for clogging. Branch pipe should be well insulated.

It is imperative to install a non-return valve to avoid the return of sewage.

Connect to electrical network must be carried out through the electrical panel, grounding, circuit breakers against short circuits and current leakage are required. To ensure uninterrupted operation in the event of a power outage, you must install a diesel electric generator.

Superficial

When installing surface pump it should be borne in mind that each model has its own maximum lifting height. If the system is not constantly used, then you can place the pump on the edge of a sewer pit or on a site nearby. The main thing is to protect the engine from moisture. Surface pumps are poorly waterproofed, and the slightest ingress of sediment can cause a short circuit and damage, and the casing can be damaged by corrosion.

If year-round use is planned, then the pump must be placed in a special room or use a caisson. The installation of the non-return valve and the electrical connection are the same as for the submersible installation.

Semi-submersible

You can install a semi-submersible pump on a special site next to the sewer pit, on a floating cushion, or fix it to one of the pit walls. The immersion depth of the pumping part depends on the length of the working hose; the motor must be above the surface of the liquid. Used by special float, which keeps the engine above water.

Make-up to the mains must be done through an electrical panel with automatic protection, grounding and shutdown.

Important! The diameter of solid particles in wastewater should not exceed 1.5 cm, since the semi-submersible pump does not have a grinding system, and the diameter of the flow channels is small.

The first start of the pump for pumping out the sewage

For the first start-up of the system, it is necessary to fill the sewer well with water to the minimum acceptable level for this model. Then increase the level until the float switch trips and the system starts. At this point, you can adjust the level at which the circuit breaker will shut off the engine.

Modern sewage pumping equipment can significantly improve and make life more comfortable owners of private houses and summer cottages. You must choose the most the best option depending on individual needs. At the right choice model, installation and operation, the equipment will serve for many years, solving an important issue of the sewer system.

In a house located far from the central sewerage system, the only way out will be an autonomous sewerage system. Which submersible, fecal pump is suitable for pumping out the sewage system: pressure, vacuum, pumping or toilet with a grinder, we will try to figure it out within the framework of this article?

If it is not possible to drain waste liquids by gravity into or into a central sewer system, a faecal submersible pump will be the best solution for forced sewage. This device is designed specifically for pumping out and subsequent transportation of dirty water that falls into or into a cesspool as a result of human activity. It is designed for household needs such as drainage from bathrooms, washing machines and dishwashers, etc.

Sewage pump

Unlike drainage, it allows you to pump out not only wastewater, but also solid sediments accumulated in cesspools. Pumping equipment of this type will provide high-quality work, has a long service life, and most importantly, does not require special maintenance.

Submersible fecal pump: working principle

When designing an effective sewage system for private estates, it is important not only to make calculations for the optimal location of either a well or a pit, but also to choose a fecal pump correctly. To date, a submersible unit is considered the best for forced sewage.

Submersible fecal pump device

Unlike surface and semi-submersible, the design of submersible pumping equipment Wastewater assumes installation below the water level - at the bottom of a storage tank, septic tank or. The principle of operation of this equipment is practically the same as that of drainage equipment, but it is based on the operation of a different design, since it is designed for pumping wastewater with solid inclusions of large diameter.

Since a submersible pump for pumping out sewage is constantly in contact with an aggressive medium, its main working parts and body are usually cast iron or made of stainless steel. The device operates in full autonomous mode due to the presence of automation, as well as a float switch.

Main selection criteria

When choosing a fecal pump, you should consider:

• planned volume of pumped liquid;
• the depth of the future immersion;
• distance from water intake to destination;
• force of pressure;
• diameter of the main passage of the pipe through which it will be transported sewerage in a septic tank;
• type of motor cooling;
• location of branch pipes.

Choose the pump of the right power

When choosing a suitable model, first of all, you should pay attention to the performance of the device. The higher this indicator, respectively, the higher the speed of the device will be. Average value for the diameter of the main passage sewer pipe- up to 0.8 cm. The larger the diameter, the higher the proportion of impurities present in the dirty liquid, which the pump can eventually pump.

You should also take into account the pressure maximum of the device. Conventionally, the average value is considered to be 10 m - this value is sufficient to raise the liquid to a height of 10 m and then transfer it to 120 m in the horizontal direction.

For uninterrupted operation, the device must have a suitable power: the more people will live in the house, the higher the power of the pumping equipment for pumping waste water must also be. As a rule, it reaches about 25 cubic meters. m / h, maximum submersible power pumping station- up to 40 kW, which allows pumping and pushing liquid to a height of 15–20 m (about 400 cubic meters per hour).

As for the type of cooling of the drive motor, it must cope well with heavy loads so that the pumping unit works without overheating.

The device of the cutting elements of the fecal pump

The last but not the least important aspect of the choice is the type of location of the nozzles, which will directly determine the future installation method. Usually, the installation boils down to the fact that a special branch pipe is placed at the bottom of the tank, and guides on the walls in order to lower or, if necessary, raise the equipment along a cable or chain.

The process of lowering to the bottom of the pit is quite simple: the pump for pumping out the sewage system onto the branch pipe is easily mounted under its own weight. The vertical-type branch pipe is more convenient than the horizontal one, since it is easier to screw the pipe into it from above, while an additional adapter will need to be installed to the latter.

Formula for calculating the immersion depth

It is easy to determine the height to which the pumped waste water should be raised using the formula G + D / 10, where:
G - immersion depth, m;
D is the length of the hose from the cesspool or septic tank to the place of effluent elimination, m;
10 is the division of the value by 10, since 1 m of vertical length is equal to 10 m in a horizontal position.

Schematic: Submerging a fecal pump

For example, the pumping unit is lowered 6 m in depth, the distance to the place where the liquid will go is 30 m.We perform calculations: 6 + 30/10 = 9 m, therefore, for forced sewage, equipment will be required that lifts the drains up to a height 9 m.

Varieties according to the principle of work

Depending on the type of sewage system and the presence of solid impurities in the composition of contaminated liquids, a fecal pump is selected:

• pressure head;
• pumping over;
• vacuum;
• dressing with a grinder.

Scheme: pump device for sewage

These varieties differ from each other in the principle of operation, the permissible temperature for the discharged liquid, as well as the presence or absence of a grinder. The toilet unit with a special cutting mechanism is not afraid of blockages, it is designed to pump liquids with any solid inclusions, the diameter of which exceeds 3.5 cm.

The principle of operation of this type of equipment is reduced to the automatic start of the knives, which carry out grinding in a matter of seconds, and then the pump pumps out the resulting liquid in the direction of the central riser.

Attention! Pumping equipment with a grinder is equipped with special knives for solid impurities, which grind any objects, including those that have entered the sewer system through carelessness.

Comparison of pumping equipment for hot and cold effluents

If you intend to use a country shower without heating, then you can put a simple pressure or vacuum unit, while a model that is resistant to high temperatures is suitable for pumping out hot drains. Equipment for pumping cold liquid waste has a temperature limit of 400 C.

Universal pump for the sewage system

Some models equipped with knives are universal - they grind inclusions of a coarse fraction and can pump both cold and hot drains, but such equipment is expensive. Typically, the unit is installed behind the toilet, to which it is connected with an adapter sleeve.

Advice! You can save a lot by carrying out separate installation for each sanitary unit: for a bath / shower stall and a washing machine, put a vacuum or other unit that can withstand high temperature, and for the toilet - a toilet pump for cold drains with a grinder.

How the marking is read

For the correct choice of pumping equipment, it is necessary to understand the labeling:

1. the presence of some numbers indicates that pumping equipment can be used to remove not very polluted wastewater, which contains the inclusion of solid particles up to 5 mm;
2. the designation "F" in the marking means that the device will cope with pumping out highly contaminated waste liquids and will let particles with a diameter of up to 35 mm;
3. the letter "H" indicates the material of manufacture from stainless steel, which confirms the possibility of using the equipment in an aggressive environment.

To make sure that the equipment suits you - study the documentation for it

How to extend the service life of pumping equipment

To operate the purification plant in non-stop mode, it is recommended to install a second pump for pumping out the sewage system - it will serve as a safety net in the event of a breakdown. For this, a so-called two-section receiving well is being built.

Live in country house it is enjoyable if the life support systems are working. A reliable fecal pump for pumping out the sewage system is selected taking into account the design of the local system. A feature of all devices for pumping waste products is the removal of lumps of dirt without clogging the working chamber.

Choosing the right pump

When equipping, it is necessary to remember about the inevitability of removing the accumulated solid waste. To do this, use a sewage machine or clean the container on their own. Fecal pump for pumping out the sewage system - the right solution.

It is necessary to select equipment based on technical parameters and working conditions. The fecal pump can be:

• superficial;
• semi-submersible;
• submersible.

At the same time, there are several varieties of each type of apparatus from different manufacturers.

By marking, you can determine the purpose of the drainage device. If the entire marking includes only digital parameters - the drainage pump can pump drains with suspended particles less than 5 mm. If the letter F is present, the fecal pump copes with the pumping of solid fraction, long fibers. If the letter H is present in the marking, the device is stable when working in an aggressive environment. The outlet manager will help in choosing the right fecal pump for pumping out the sewage system.

The pump is selected for pumping wastewater through a long gravity system to the intake manifold of the general sewage system, more often for pumping VOCs.

Selection of submersible pumps for pumping wastewater

Working in an aggressive liquid environment, the apparatus must be sealed and resistant to corrosion. Therefore, the faecal submersible pump is made of resistant materials - cast iron, stainless steel or polymers.

According to the principle of operation, devices are distinguished:

• centrifugal;
• vortex;
• screw.

Experts consider the most efficient and reliable centrifugal pump.

The device is equipped with a filter mesh at the suction pipe, a check valve, an automatic activation system at a certain level in the tank. Often, a fecal pump is used with a grinder, installed on a wide substrate so that it is not sucked into the sludge bottom sediments.

Advantages of submersible devices:

• pumping waste with a solid fraction with a cross section of 80 mm;
• reliability in work, do not collapse in a specific environment;
• do not overheat in a liquid environment;
• creates a head up to 30 m;
• pumps with grinders pump waste in a pipe with a cross section of 50 mm, saving when installing a pressure pipeline.

The plant manufacturers are well-known companies.

Here are examples of inexpensive fecal pumps, their features.

1. Caliber NPTs-1350 presents a budget option for a submersible drainage fecal pump. The device has a shredder that is capable of passing 18 m 3 of waste. At the same time, the device is able to pass a maximum size of pieces of 40 mm. The pump creates a head of 12 meters, it is convenient for use in local systems. The cost of the device 5-8 thousand rubles is available for people with low incomes.
2. Whirlwind FN-750 works at depths of up to 9 meters. The 13 meter head allows waste to be lifted from a low level. The pump does not have a chopper, but it has a float start system. The device is capable of passing solid waste up to 42 mm in size. The device has overheating protection. The price of the pump is 6-7 thousand rubles.
3. Hungarian apparatus Eipumps can be used in everyday life and for pumping industrial wastewater, depending on the modification. An economical reliable device, not inferior in performance to domestic models, costs from 4 thousand rubles.
4. Jileks Fecalnik- the installation of the Russian plant is produced in a plastic case or made of stainless steel. The capacity of the fecal pump for cesspools is 9-15 m 3, the head is 11 meters, which is enough for a local system. Depending on the design of the case, the average cost is about 5 thousand rubles.
5. HeizWRS 25- a pump of German design, Chinese production. The device is equipped with a grinder, with a pressure of up to 14 meters, it can flow up to 15 m 3 / hour. Energy consumption 0.8 kW, overheating protection, cast iron or stainless steel design makes the model reliable and economical.

More expensive installations include branded products from European companies. Pumps of the brands Grundfos, Pedrollo, WILO-DRAIN MTC – MTS are expensive high-performance equipment with automatic start-up and a high degree of protection.

Selection of surface pumps

A fecal pump for pumping out sewage of a surface type is used mainly by summer residents. It is impossible to use the unit at negative outside temperatures, the chamber freezes over. The body is made without sealing, in rain or without a canopy from splashes, the engine may become unusable. Installations are attracted by their compactness and mobility. They can be stored in the utility block, installing only for the duration of the swinging of the cesspool. The inlet is equipped with a mesh, there is a built-in check valve. The equipment is easy to operate and is cheaper than submersible systems.

The design of the surface pump does not imply the design of the grinder, it allows particles up to 5 mm to pass through. The power of the installations is lower, but the mobility allows the use of the devices in various household jobs.

Semi-submersible pumps

Drainage fecal pump of semi-submersible type combined the advantages of submersible and surface installations. The device is vertical, the engine is located on the surface and does not require sealing. Due to the simplified design, the cost of the pump is low. The device works with a lower efficiency compared to a submersible one, it is possible to recommend for a private courtyard only a pump of the NCI-F100 brand, with a pressure of 8 meters and a power of 0.5 kW.

Of all the listed types of sewage pumps for cesspools, submersibles are often chosen as more technological and reliable.

How to choose a drainage or fecal pump - video

With the spring flooding of the basement in the country, the need to pump out dirty water from a pond, pool, or simply watering the beds from a nearby reservoir, which is also not very clean, is faced by most of the owners of suburban areas.

For work in such conditions, the usual ones used for sampling from wells and wells are not suitable drinking water- they are sensitive even to the smallest impurities. For example, very fine sand can disable pumping equipment, seriously damaging its working components.

Especially for dirty work, the industry produces a special type of self-priming type drainage pumps. They provide protection from debris and dirt in the form of a mesh filter. You should have information about that.

Main types

Drainage pumps handle not only dirty water, but also denser liquids such as the contents of sewage pits and faeces. According to their technical capabilities and area of ​​use, they are divided:

• on wells - used to cleanse the bottom from silt deposits;
• fecal - equipped with special filters capable of trapping fibrous contents such as hair or threads;
• drainage proper - used to pump out not very dirty water from basements and pools;
• borehole - designed for cleaning drinking and technical wells from siltation and sand.

Each pump has the corresponding information in the technical data sheet (the size and type of particles for which the protective filter is designed are indicated).

Also, the equipment is divided into two large groups:

• surface pumps;
• sinking into the water, that is, submersible.

Surface pump

Surface units are often referred to as garden units, as they are designed for very little water pollution. Particles of dirt and impurities should not exceed one centimeter!

For operation, the pump is attached to a special platform (platform), and the hose for fluid intake is lowered into the working volume filled with water. For example, in the home pool.

Pumps of this type do not have a long service life. They are designed for periodic use. Daily pumping of water, for example, from a public reservoir for the purpose of irrigation, is guaranteed to disable the device.

Advantages:

• ease of maintenance and installation;
• can be used anywhere where it is possible to connect to the electrical network.

Disadvantages:

• cannot be used for working with great depths (maximum five meters);
• short service life;
• increased noise in metal models;
• short service life of plastic cases.

In winter, such a pump cannot be used outdoors.

Submersible pump

Submersible units are quite reliable pumps that are lowered to the bottom of a well, well, pool for water intake or placed on the floor in the basement. Capable of handling highly contaminated liquids. The permissible size of dirt impurities is five centimeters.

Dirt passes freely through the wide housing chamber without damaging the pump. Such devices can be used for household and industrial purposes. The first will fully satisfy the needs of the owners country houses and plots - they are quite economical in terms of electricity consumption and have good technical characteristics... Industrial designs are massive and powerful units with high energy consumption that will not reveal their potential when used for domestic needs.

Advantages:

• reliability;
• versatility.

Disadvantages:

1. high price;
2. the need to consider all technical specifications(a mistake during purchase is possible).

Submersible pumps will work efficiently if the owners paid attention to the following when buying them specifications:

• Suction port location - the lower it is, the more thoroughly dirt and water will be removed from the bottom or floor. In reservoirs with a muddy bottom, as well as in very dirty wells and boreholes, the unit must not be lowered to the bottom. A strong flow of dirt will prevent the pump from running. It must be raised above the level of the bottom or placed on a stand. There are also models with a water intake at the top of the case. For them, placement in the bottom mud is not critical.
• Automatic shutdown is an expensive but practical option. The owners do not need to stand near the switched on unit. As soon as the water runs out, the signal float will turn off the pump in automatic mode and prevent it from overheating during dry running.
• Performance is a parameter that affects the scope of the device. It is believed that a capacity of 120 liters per minute is sufficient for irrigation. But for pumping out, you will need a more powerful unit.

Submersible drainage pumps are an important part of the maintenance of wells and wells, which must be cleaned regularly. Chlorination of the source, cleaning its walls, replacing the bottom filter - all these important procedures are invariably associated with pumping out turbid water.

Such a pump will also be an invaluable assistant in construction works... With its help, you can easily and quickly pump out moisture from construction pits.

Universal pump

Universal models. This type can be safely attributed to pumps designed for feces. They work completely immersed in liquid.

Advantages:

• power;
• strength and reliability;
• long service life;
• the presence of a grinder inside the body (designed for solid impurities);
• can be used in very dirty water.

Disadvantages:

• high price.

With such a reliable unit, you can clean any sewage pit, as well as water the garden using a dirty pond.

In the latter case, the plants will receive not only moisture, but also high-quality fertilizer from the bottom of the reservoir.

If the power grid is still not connected to the house in a suburban area, but an acute the need to pump out dirty water, the owners can use a manual pump... It is not cheap, about 9,000 rubles. The main advantage of such a device is absolute independence from power supply. When buying a pump, you should also pay attention to the size of solid mud particles, in the presence of which the technical data sheet allows the operation of a particular device.

A cesspool is the simplest sewer accumulator that requires periodic emptying. In order to free the container from sediment, they usually call a sewer.

However, a fecal pump for a cesspool will help to cope with this task, which helps to empty the reservoir on its own. Let's admit: not all of us know which unit should be chosen for this procedure.

We have reliable information that gives answers to a wide range of questions arising from the owners of autonomous sewerage systems... The use of the information provided by us will greatly facilitate and speed up the selection of a technical device.

The article offered to the attention of site visitors is described in detail design features and the principle of operation of fecal pumps. Differences between the units are indicated, depending on the upcoming operating conditions. To help the buyer, a rating of popular models, photo and video reviews are given.

The main purpose of the equipment is to pump out a viscous and dirty liquid with a high concentration of fibrous and solid inclusions. The mechanisms easily cope with the processing of liquid, the linear size of the inclusions of which can reach 50 mm.

Fecal pumping equipment is designed for pumping and transporting liquids with an impressive amount of organic impurities. To prevent the pump from clogging, the units are equipped with a grinder

Mud pumps are irreplaceable:

• at and sewer wells from silt deposits;
• when transporting wastewater with the possibility of its removal at distances regulated by sanitary standards;
• when draining storm ditches and basements of houses.

The need for such equipment may also arise during the arrangement. They are installed when it is necessary to compensate for the small angle of inclination of the pipeline in order to prevent clogging of the system.

The main structural elements unit are:

• engine- a device that converts the energy generated by the sources into mechanical work, which sets the pump in motion;
• water pump- a moving part that pumps liquid into a special tank;
• input channel- ensures that liquid enters the pump;
• outlet valve- diverts wastewater to a waste tank.
• chopper- a rotating element designed for grinding large inclusions.

The characteristic difference of fecal devices from other types of pumps is the increased reliability and the larger diameter of the channels.

The pump is responsible for creating forced circulation of fluid in the system; its malfunction can provoke a serious imbalance in the internal thermal regime of the unit

The shredder is an essential functional element of most models. It consists of rotating knives installed at the inlet of the unit. By grinding branches, debris and even small stones into small fractions, the rotating elements prevent clogging and damage to the unit.

For ease of use, some manufacturers equip submersible models with ropes or skid lifts. They simplify the removal of the unit to the surface after completion of work, for preventive maintenance or in the event of a breakdown.

The fecal pump is suitable for draining the excavation and trenches formed for the device of utilities

Sump pumping submersible pump produced in the following order:
