A new version of Compit, a pre-fabricated pump station for single- and multi-family housing, has been developed by ITT Flygt.
The pump station, which is designed for sewage and groundwater, can be installed at a depth of up to three meters – by using an extension shaft. Flexible and reliable, Compit is complete on delivery and ready for immediate connection to inlet and outlet pipes. The pre-fabricated pump station is made of high-density polyethylene (PE-HD). The pump capacity ranges up to 10 l/s.
Andrew Barry, ITT Flygt’s market manager, says: “All internal discharge piping is made of stainless steel and its bowl-shaped base and smooth inner surface ensures that solids cannot settle out in the bottom of the tank.”
With ITT Flygt ENM10 level regulators included as standard, Compit has the added benefits of a check valve and shut-off valve, stainless steel lifting chain and DN 150 inlet and is also available with concrete access cover suitable for pedestrian (Class A) or 5 tonne loadings (Class B).
Each pump station can be equipped with up to two pumps and is available with different pump types such as: Flygt submersible grinder pumps 3068, 3085 and 3102, each of which have an impeller unit specially designed for handling the rigours of sewage pumping.
Flygt submersible 3045 and 3057 sewage pumps are suitable for greywater (generated from domestic processes like bathing, laundry and washing dishes), while DX pumps handle groundwater.
Compact, flexible and robust, these pumps can be used in almost any regulatory environment. ITT Flygt can also provide system planning, design and installation assistance for sewage systems.
