HCP FN-2.5U Effluent Pump for Low-Pressure Sewer and Light Sewage
Product Overview
In septic systems, low-pressure sewer lines, and below-grade basins, the HCP FN-2.5U submersible effluent pump moves effluent and light sewage on 120V power. Its 0.5 HP motor delivers up to 70 GPM (about 4,200 GPH), and a non-clog vortex impeller passes solids up to 1-3/8 inches (35 mm).
Quick Specs
- Horsepower: 0.5 HP (0.4 kW)
- Voltage / Phase: 120V 1-phase (also 208/240V and 575V 3-phase), 6 A at 120V, 60 Hz
- Discharge: 2 inch (50 mm), Female NPT
- Max Flow: 70 GPM (about 4,200 GPH)
- Max Head: 34 ft
- Solids Handling: 1-3/8 inch (35 mm)
- Impeller: Non-clog vortex
- Cord: 30 ft, 3-prong 120V plug
Key Features of HCP FN-2.5U Submersible Effluent Pumps
- The non-clog vortex impeller passes solids up to 1-3/8 inch (35 mm), so the FN-2.5U moves effluent and light sewage that would jam a clean-water pump.
- An open inlet with no bottom strainer lets stringy solids pass straight into the volute instead of catching on a screen.
- A cast-iron (FC200) casing with a 304 stainless steel motor frame stands up to continuous wastewater duty.
- Twin mechanical seals, carbon/ceramic over silicon carbide, run in an oil-filled chamber to keep sewage out of the motor. On the 120V model, a thermal protector and moisture sensor add a second layer of protection.
- The IP68 sealed motor is rated for full submersion to 33 ft (10 m), for permanent basin and chamber installs.

Performance Overview
The FN-2.5U delivers up to 70 GPM and lifts to about 34 ft. It fits effluent transfer and low-pressure sewer runs that need steady flow through a 2-inch line more than high lift.
Where the FN-2.5U fits by solids handling
Solids passage separates these pump types. The FN-2.5U sits between a filtered-effluent pump and a full sewage ejector.
| Pump type | Solids passed | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| Effluent pump | up to about 3/4 inch | Filtered septic effluent |
| HCP FN-2.5U | up to 1-3/8 inch (35 mm) | Effluent and light sewage |
| Sewage ejector | up to 2 inch | Raw residential sewage |
Applications
- Effluent transfer from septic and treatment tanks
- Low-pressure sewer (LPS) and pressurized dosing systems
- Below-grade sewage basins in homes and small commercial buildings
- Mound and aerobic on-site wastewater systems
- Effluent chambers and pump vaults
Set it in a basin with a check valve and control panel from the sewage pump accessories collection.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the HCP FN-2.5U replace the F-05U?
Yes. The FN-2.5U is HCP's replacement for the discontinued F-05U, with the same 0.5 HP, 2 inch effluent format and an updated FN-series motor. It comes in 120V, 240V, and 575V, so an F-05U swaps out without changing the discharge.
What size solids does the FN-2.5U pass?
Up to 1-3/8 inch (35 mm), through a non-clog vortex impeller. That covers effluent and light sewage. For raw sewage with solids up to 2 inches, step up to a full sewage ejector.
Effluent pump or sewage pump, what is the difference?
An effluent pump like the FN-2.5U moves liquid with smaller solids (here, up to 1-3/8 inch) from septic and low-pressure sewer systems. A sewage ejector handles raw sewage with solids up to 2 inches. Match the pump to the solids your system produces.
How much does the FN-2.5U move, and how high?
Up to 70 GPM (about 4,200 GPH), with a maximum head near 34 ft. Flow is highest at low lift and falls as the head rises.
Is the FN-2.5U certified, and does it have motor protection?
Yes. It carries CSA C22.2 No. 108-14 and cUL (UL778), with an IP68 sealed motor. The 120V model includes a built-in thermal protector and a moisture sensor.
