Small-scale sewage pumping is normally done by a
SUBMERSIBLE PUMP.
This became popular in the early 1960s, when a guide-rail system was developed to lift the submersible pump out of the pump station for repair, and ended the dirty and sometimes dangerous task of sending people into the sewage or wet pit. Growth of the submersible pump for sewage pumping since has been dramatic, as an increasing number of specifiers and developers learned of their advantages.
Three classes of submersible pumps exist:
- Smaller submersible pumps, used in domestic and light commercial applications, normally handle up to 55 millimetres (2.2 in) spherical solids and range from 0.75 to 2.2 kilowatts (1.01 to 2.95 hp).
- Larger submersible pumps, larger solids and normally have a minimum of 80 millimetres (3.1 in) discharge. They are generally used in municipal and industrial applications for pumping sewage and all types of industrial waste water.
- Submersible PUMPS, which are used to handle larger concentrations of solids and/or tougher solids that conventional sewage pumps cannot handle. Chopper pumps are generally used in municipal and industrial waste water applications and provide clog-free operation by CHOPPING those solids that might clog other types of submersible pumps.
Submersible pumps are normally used in a packaged pump station where drainage by gravity is not possible.
Vertical type sewage pumps have also been used for many years. They have the motor above the floor so work on the motor can be done without entering the sewage pit.
A pump is a device that moves fluids, by mechanical action. Pumps can be classified into three major groups according to the method they use to move the fluid: direct lift, displacement, and gravity pumps.
Pumps operate by some mechanism , by moving the fluid. Pumps operate via many energy sources, including manual operation, electricity, come in many sizes, from microscopic for use in medical applications to large industrial pumps.
Mechanical pumps serve in a wide range of applications such as PUMPING WATER FROM WELLS and AERATION, in the AUTO INDUSTRY for WATER and FUEL INJECTION, in the ENERGY INDUSTRY for PUMPING OIL and NATURAL GAS or for operating COOLING TOWERS.
In biology, many different types of chemical and bio-mechanical pumps have EVOLVED is sometimes used in developing new types of mechanical pumps.
