Clogging Issues Solved With Outstanding Pump Efficiency
7/21/2018
The horizontal, dry-installed pumps at the network pumping station Zell am See were clogging at least 2-4 times a week, also during weekends. Consequently, the pumps had to be lifted and the blockage removed. A high amount of sanitary items and incontinence adult diapers from the nearby hospital were the root cause for the clogging. Read the case study to learn more.

Spiralift® SLX: First Line Of Defense For Prison Effluent
11/26/2020
For years, Graterford Prison, a maximum security facility in Pennsylvania, experienced continuous problems with their wastewater system. Their antiquated equipment consisted of bar screens, grinders and comminutors which were frequently overwhelmed by the sewage generated daily by 3,600 inmates. To make matters worse, the trash and debris often included full sheets, blankets, clothing, shoes, and plastics which the prisoners stuffed into the toilets in their cells and flushed. The ensuing sewage clogs, backups and flooding created headaches for the maintenance staff and interfered with the institution’s functioning.
