The Pumped System for the BIOROCK wastewater treatment plant

Pumped system for the BIOROCK Sewage Treatment Plant

If the outlet from the BIOROCK is too low for a gravity system, we can supply a 240V pumping station.  These pump settlement tank effluent INTO the BIOROCK and are made specially for WTE by Conder. The BIOROCK is then sited partially above ground (depending on the outlet invert required) with the soil mounded up to it. This makes the installation a fraction of the price of a fully underground system.

The pump chambers have a 30 year tank warranty.

The chamber is a one piece construction with no possibility of groundwater ingress at leaking seams, joints, etc.

The pump has an internal float switch with no float arm to catch on the side of the tank. It is capable of pumping a head of 6.5 metres and costs about £6/person/year to run on mains power.

240V pump

 

We stopped supplying the Solar Powered Pump Station as the solar panels, batteries and regulators were constantly being stolen from the installation sites.  They were too tempting to thieves as the system can also run shed lighting, garden water features, etc.  They are not so keen on stealing submersible pumps.

The solar panels were also broken by stone-throwing vandals on a regular basis and the 12V system was not understood by electricians (used to 240V supply) and installed incorrectly.

The Solar Pumped option is still available from the manufacturers if required.  Please call for details.
