Ejector Pumps

Ejector Pumps are used when waste-water cannot efficiently flow to its destination by means of gravity alone. This equipment is installed beneath the closest septic or sewer line to lift waste from a drain. Ejector pumps typically come in two sizes: the first is the vertical suspended type. Here, the motor is mounted on the outside of the basin. It is supported by a shaft, which is affixed to a pump housing inside the basin. The second is the close-coupled submersible. In this model the motor connects directly to the pump housing and impeller by a short shaft. As its name suggests, it is submerged completely inside the basin.
