Smith & Loveless has highlighted the EVERLAST™ Rectangular Recessed Pump Station, a semi-recessed climate-controlled wastewater pump station that continues the S&L tradition of high efficiency and low operation and maintenance costs.
The EV R2 pump station comes as a complete, factory-built and tested system that is simple to install in both new installations and replacements of submersible pump stations.
This state-of-the-art packaged pump station incorporates premium efficient motors designed exclusively for solids-handling pumps, resulting in reduced energy consumption costs and a smaller carbon footprint.
Unlike submersible pump stations, all mechanical equipment, including pumps and valves, are housed in a spacious, prefabricated workspace that is semi-recessed into the ground, allowing immediate grade level access while maintaining a low profile.
The cost savings for operation and maintenance are proven and well-documented.
For example, a Kansas municipality conducted a study of the repair and maintenance costs of 32 S&L above-ground pump stations compared to 21 submersible pump stations in the same sewerage network over a period of 12 years. The results showed that the S&L pump stations had nearly 56% lower operating expenses.
The EV R2 pump station is equipped with S&L STAR ONE™ Non-Clog Pumps, which are centrifugal solids-handling pumps that last three to five times longer than a typical submersible pump.
These pumps also offer typically higher efficiencies across the range of pumping conditions.
