Key Features of HCP 80AFU21.5 Sewage Pumps

Cast Iron Vortex Impeller

Creates a whirlpool effect to pass slurry and long fibrous materials without contact, preventing clogs common in standard pumps.

High Efficiency Dry Motor

Provides a high-efficiency dry motor wastewater pump solution that reduces energy consumption while maintaining high torque for startup.

Double Mechanical Seals

Features a carbon/ceramic upper seal and silicon/carbide lower seal to protect the motor from fluid ingress and extend operational life.

Epoxy Resin Cable Base

Prevents moisture from wicking into the motor through the core wires, a common cause of electrical failure in submersible pumps.

Robust Cast Iron Construction

Utilizes FC200 Cast Iron (ASTM-30) for the casing and motor frame, offering superior resistance to industrial wastewater and physical wear.

Auto-Cut Thermal Protector

Protects the motor from burnout due to high temperature or excess amperage draw by automatically shutting down and resetting when cool.

Performance Overview

The HCP 80AFU21.5 sewage pump delivers consistent performance for Wastewater Treatment Systems, effectively balancing flow and head pressure.

• Flow and Lift Performance: Designed for lift stations, this pump delivers 175 GPM at 5 feet of head and maintains flow up to a shut-off head of 49 feet.
• Solids Handling: The non-clog submersible pump ensures reliable operation, even with 2-inch solids or fibrous materials.
• Ideal Operating Conditions: Suitable for submerged use in temperatures from 32°F to 104°F (0–40°C), it efficiently handles sewage, industrial wastewater, and stormwater.

Applications

• Municipal lift station upgrades
• Industrial Wastewater Management
• Municipal Water Treatment facilities
• Commercial sewage systems
• Husbandry and poultry sewage management
• Stormwater and wastewater lift stations
• Sanitary sewer pumping

Common Use

• Replacing existing 2 HP sewage pumps in lift station systems
• Managing wastewater with high concentrations of cloth wipes
• Pumping stations for apartment complexes

Installation & Use Notes

• Guide Rail Compatibility: This unit is a guide rail system compatible sewage pump, fitting most manufacturer systems for easy retrieval.
• Electrical: Ensure the correct voltage and phase match your control panel (available in single-phase (208/230V) and three-phase (208/230V, 460V, 575V) configurations).
• Venting: Verify the basin is properly vented to prevent air locking.
• Submersion: Designed for continuous duty when fully submerged; avoid running dry for extended periods.
