Sewage Pumps

How to calulate what size Sewage Ejector Pump is needed for your application:

When sizing a sewage ejector pump for your waste application there are three things to consider.

1) What size are your excisting sewage pipes that you will be connecting to.
2) What is the vertical elevation from the sewage basin to the public main that you will pump to.
3) What is the horizontal run of the pipe from the sewage basin to the public main that you will pump to.

Every 10’ of pipe equals the same restrictions as 1’ of lift. The shut off means that is the maximum height that the sewage or grinder pump will lift. So you will get "0" flow at the shut off height.

  2. So does the location affect what type you should get? I am looking to get pumps in Edmonton but I don't know if there are any extra circumstances I should be aware of before choosing a specific type.

  5. I didn't know that the vertical elevation made a difference in selecting a pump. That makes sense. I would imagine it's better to get a stronger pump than a larger one. Higher suckage volume doesn't seem to be that effective.
