Description

Pump chambers for larger housing projects, and commercial/industrial developments.

The Marsh range of vertical pump chambers incorporates systems for pumping surface water or domestic sewage to mains, septic/sewage treatment plant effluent to drainage fields/watercourses, and bespoke systems for larger domestic and industrial applications.

When discharge to mains is required, but to do so by gravity is impractical, a pump chamber system will be needed. Although available as floor-mounted units for indoor applications such as basements, the vast majority are installed outdoors at levels to suit on-site conditions and topography.

Guidance notes:

Where foul water drainage from a domestic property is to be pumped to the mains the effluent receiving chamber should be sized to contain 24-hour inflow to allow for disruption in service, the minimum daily discharge being taken as 150 litres per person per day.

  • For other building types the capacity of the receiving chamber should be based on the calculated daily demand of the water intake for the building, or when only a proportion of the foul sewage is to be pumped then the capacity should be based pro-rata



    Each pump chamber contains a number of float switches linked to a control panel that automatically controls flow and levels.

    In a single pump chamber there are three float switches:
    Float A: Actuates the pump cycle until level drops to low level.
    Float B: Low level float stops the pump.
    Float C: High level alarm – positioned above the pump actuator  float (min 100mm).

    For twin pump chamber operation there is an additional float switch (Float D) – usually positioned 150mm above first actuator (A) – which actuates the second pump in periods of higher flow.

    After each cycle the pumps alternate to extend pump life and are designed to run for a minimum of 60 seconds with no more than 15 starts per hour.

    Benefits

    • Designed to BSEN12050 for structural strength and water-tightness and to BSEN752 to comply with hydrostatic and electrical requirements
    • Smooth internal walls and integral pump well improves pump efficiency and eliminates ‘dead spots’ which can lead to odours and septicity
    • Pre-assembled pipework for fully automatic operation (pump/control equipment separate)
    • Heavy duty (industrial) ‘peardrop’ floats and Lowara (Xylem) pumps throughout ensure robust, reliable design and maximum efficiency of pump with minimal clogging or wear
    • Unique ‘keying-in’ lip to assist anchoring into concrete surround
    • High level alarm as standard
    • Variable invert depths and orientations ­­­to suit individual site conditions
