Case Study: Lift Station Pump Sealing

By A. W. Chesterton Corporation

Lift stations or pumping stations supply wastewater to treatment plants. They are remote from the plant and are critical to the operation that many redundancies are built into each lift station to ensure they remain in operation, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. These stations must be extremely reliable because the gravity flow coming into the lift station cannot be turned off!
