Aqua4um

Pumping station (PS) is used in sewage collection systems, it is designed for wastewater pumping into a higher sewer network or wastewater treatment plant due to terrain characteristics. More than 90% PSs in the Slovak Republic are „wet pumping stations“ bringing many disadvantages e.g.:

  • Pump plugging (reduced life-cycle),
  • Frequent maintenance necessary (labour intensive cleaning of a PS, deteriorated hygienic conditions for maintenance personnel),
  • Increased operating and maintenance costs of a PS,
  • Environmental impact.

For the above problems to be eliminated our company has developed Pump Protector™, a device enabling to upgrade your ordinary pumping station to a pumping station of the future.

Following the installation of Pump Protector™ significant cost reduction is achieved, the costs associated with the operation of a PS, due to:

  • decreased number of PS calls for pumps cleaning, maintenance, and service,
  • prolonged life-cycle of pumps,
  • less frequent servicing of pumps,
  • reduced power consumption,
  • increased long-term effectiveness of pumps,
  • no need to use rakes, which is beneficial in terms of ecological impact on environment around the pumping stations.

Pump Protector™ ensures that a pump does not get into contact with particulate matter that cause the pump’s excessive wear, mechanical damage, plugging, and failure.

Pump Protector™ can be installed into wet chambers of new as well as majority of existing pumping stations with no construction alterations needed!

Pump Protector™ in gravitational inflow of wastewater into a PS, the Pump Protector separates particulate matter, accumulates it temporarily, and following the switch-on of the pump, it enables that particulate matter is forced into the lifting pipe, through which it is further delivered into sewage collection system and/or wastewater treatment plant.

Pump Protector™ enables upgrading of a pumping station with the use of original pumps, if they are technically fit for their purpose, which reduces investment costs to minimum.
