Effluent Pumps

Effluent pumps are designed to move treated wastewater, also known as greywater, containing small solids up to about ¾ inch in diameter. These pumps are typically used in systems where water has already passed through a septic tank or another form of primary treatment. They are ideal for applications like distributing water to leach fields, irrigation systems, or drainage areas. While they can be either submersible or mounted above ground, effluent pumps are generally less heavy-duty than sewage pumps, as they don’t handle large or abrasive solids and are often used in lighter-duty tasks like basement or pool drainage.

The HCP Model 50SFU2.8A 2" Industrial Stainless Steel Submersible Effluent Pump is a high-performance, industrial-grade submersible effluent pump made of SUS316 stainless steel and Viton O-rings, ideal for corrosive and seawater applications. It features durable seals, a vortex impeller for severe service, and is available in multiple voltage options. With a compact design, powerful air-filled motors, and a maximum flow rate of 96 GPM, it includes thermal protection and an optional float switch for automation.

Grinder Pumps

Grinder pumps are a specialized type of submersible sewage pump equipped with sharp blades that grind up solid waste into a fine slurry. This enables the waste to be pumped through narrow pipes without clogging. These pumps are commonly found in residential pressure sewer systems and commercial septic applications, particularly in areas without access to gravity-based sewer systems. They can handle raw sewage with larger solids. Grinder pumps offer a reliable way to manage wastewater in challenging environments that require solid breakdown before transport.

HCP 32GF22.2 Grinder Pumps

The HCP 32GF22.2 Grinder Pumps are engineered for tough sewage applications, offering reliable performance in both residential and commercial settings.

With 3 HP motors running at 3600 RPM, available in single or three-phase options, they include dual mechanical seals for extended motor life and added protection against contaminants.

Sewage Lift Station Pumps

Sewage lift station pumps are essential components in wastewater systems where gravity flow is not feasible. These pumps lift raw sewage from lower to higher elevations, helping transport it toward treatment facilities or main sewer lines. Built to handle solids and fibrous waste materials, they are typically submersible and come with vortex or grinder impellers to prevent clogging. Sewage lift pumps are robust, making them suitable for use in municipal, industrial, and large-scale residential sewage systems.

HCP 3 HP 3" Sewage Lift Station Pump

The HCP 3 HP 3" Sewage Lift Station Pump is a 3 HP cast iron sewage pump designed for municipal use, ideal for replacing or upgrading small lift station pumps. It features a high-efficiency dry motor, a durable vortex impeller for handling 2" solids like cloth wipes, and a four-bolt horizontal discharge compatible with major guide rail systems. With a dual seal system in an oil-filled chamber, epoxy resin-sealed cable base, and CSA certification, it ensures long-lasting performance and moisture protection. Available in multiple voltages and stocked for fast delivery, this pump offers a reliable, easy-to-install solution for efficient wastewater management.

Sewage Pumps

Sewage pumps are used to move a mixture of solids and liquids found in household or commercial sewage. This includes submersible pumps, sewage ejector pumps, and grinder pumps. These pumps are designed to handle wastewater from toilets, sinks, and other plumbing fixtures. Whether installed in basements, lift stations, or sewage pits, general sewage pumps help prevent flooding and maintain hygiene by efficiently moving waste away from properties and into appropriate treatment or disposal systems.

HCP FNK-33U 3 HP 3" Submersible Sewage Pump

The HCP FNK-33U 3 HP Submersible Sewage Pump is a high-performance, durable solution for tough sewage applications. Built with a cast iron upper cover, volute, and impeller, along with a 304 stainless steel motor frame, it features a vortex impeller that handles solids up to 2" in diameter. Its dual mechanical seals—carbon/ceramic and silicone carbide—are housed in an oil-filled chamber with food-grade oil for superior leak resistance and durability. Compact and powerful, it supports flow rates up to 212 GPM and heads up to 61 feet, and comes in single and three-phase models with a 30' power cable. cUL and CSA certified, it’s ideal for demanding sewage environments.

Submersible Dewatering Pumps

Submersible dewatering pumps are designed for the removal of clean or lightly contaminated water, particularly in environments like construction sites, flooded basements, or mining operations. These pumps operate while fully submerged in water and are optimized for high-volume water removal rather than handling solids. Known for their quiet operation and resistance to issues like cavitation, dewatering pumps are not suitable for sewage applications but are essential in keeping job sites and other areas dry and operational.

HCP Model GDR-400 2" Submersible Puddle Sucker Pump

The HCP Model GDR-400 2" Submersible Puddle Sucker Pump is a powerful, efficient 1/2 HP pump designed for tough water management tasks such as construction dewatering, stormwater control, and well pumping. Delivering a high flow rate of 64 GPM, it features durable carbon/ceramic and silicon carbide seals, a robust urethane rubber impeller, thermal overload protection, and a lightweight aluminum construction. With flexible discharge options, a 30-ft cable, and an optional hose kit, it’s ideal for various dewatering needs.

Submersible Trash Pumps

Submersible trash pumps are built to handle water that contains large solids, sludge, and debris, making them ideal for heavy-duty applications such as stormwater management, flood control, mining, and municipal pumping. These pumps are constructed with rugged, wear-resistant components and powerful impellers that can withstand abrasive and solid-laden fluids. Unlike standard submersible pumps, trash pumps are made specifically for dirty, debris-filled water, providing a dependable solution in some of the harshest operating environments.

HCP F-21P 1 HP 2" Submersible Trash Pump

The HCP F-21P 1 HP 2" Submersible Trash Pump is a durable and high-performance solution for dewatering applications involving solids up to 7/8". With a cast iron body, corrosion-resistant stainless steel motor frame, and a powerful 1 HP motor delivering up to 97 GPM, it is ideal for tough jobsite conditions.

FAQs

1. Can effluent pumps handle solids, and if so, what size?

Yes, effluent pumps are capable of handling small solids, typically up to ¾ inch in diameter. This makes them ideal for transporting treated wastewater, where larger solids have already been filtered out during the septic process. However, they are not designed for raw sewage or applications involving large debris—those would require a grinder or sewage pump instead.

2. In what situations are grinder pumps preferred over standard sewage pumps?

Grinder pumps are ideal in residential or commercial systems with limited space or long pipe runs where clogging is a concern. They’re also used in pressure sewer systems where solids need to be macerated.

3. What function does a sewage lift station pump serve in a wastewater system?

Sewage lift station pumps are designed to raise raw sewage from lower elevations to higher ground, where it can continue to a treatment plant or main sewer line by gravity. They’re vital in terrain where gravity flow alone isn't feasible.

4. How do sewage pumps contribute to property protection?

By efficiently moving waste away from a property and into the proper disposal or treatment systems, sewage pumps prevent backups and flooding, maintaining sanitation and safety.

5. What are submersible dewatering pumps, and when should they be used?

These pumps are used for removing clean or lightly contaminated water in applications like flooded basements, construction sites, and mining operations. They are fully submersible and optimized for high-volume water removal.

6. When should you choose a submersible trash pump?

Use a trash pump in heavy-duty conditions like stormwater pumping, flood control, municipal waste systems, or construction sites where water contains solids and debris that could clog standard pumps.
