The Harlequin 1550 Litre Twin Effluent Pump Station is suitable for pumping final stage effluent from a sewage treatment plant or septic tank to a suitable drainage field. This chamber can also be used for pumping final stage effluent from a sewage treatment plant to a watercourse (subject to obtaining EA permits).

Harlequin pump chambers are manufactured from rotationally moulded polyethene making them stronger and easier to handle than some of the GRP alternatives.

 This pump chamber is supplied with twin pumps, benefits of the Harlequin twin pump system are:

• High-level alarm supplied as standard
• Alternating twin pumps which allow the station to continue operating in the event of a single pump failure 
• Control panel to manage the pump operation and warn of a pump failure

 When do you need a pump station?

• When the cost of groundworks to allow sewage to flow by gravity outweighs the cost of a sewage pumping station.

• When the sewer line passes over a ridge.

• If basement floors are too low to allow sewage flow by gravity.

• Where gravity system has not been built.

What is a sewage pumping station and how does it work?

A pumping station is made up of a large tank, known as a wet well, that acts as the receiver for sewage from a building or a group of buildings. Sewage from individual houses flows into the wet well.

The sewage will then sit in the well until it reaches a predetermined level. Once it reaches this level, a pump will kick in to pressurise the sewage so that it will travel out of the wet well, uphill, to a point where it enters the main sewer, or that it can then travel into the main sewer using gravity.

 Advantages of a Sewage Pump Station

• A pump station offers convenience when installing a sewage system, and has the potential of cutting construction costs.
• Pump stations are fitted with remote monitoring systems, which keep operators updated.
• Sewage is pumped automatically without any human contact, which eliminates the risk of health problems.
• Different sizes of pumps are available for domestic applications and commercial applications.
• The intake of the pumps is often wide to prevent blocking.
• Sewage pumping systems are fitted with alarms to alert you to problems with the system. This minimises the risk of sewage overflowing as you are alerted quickly.
