Gorman-Rupp’s Eradicator Plus™ effectively prevents pump clogging, a challenging issue in the wastewater industry. Clearing clogs is both time-consuming and expensive, adding unnecessary costs and downtime. Moreover, pump clogging can lead to overflows, resulting in the discharge of raw sewage into nearby rivers and streams.

This issue has been aggravated by the widespread disposal of wipes into sewer systems, posing a significant challenge to wastewater pumps.

Selecting the appropriate pump is pivotal to reduce clogging problems. Various pump styles and impellers are available, each designed to handle specific types of wastewater and solids.

Selecting the right pump involves many factors, including:

• Type of liquid pumped
• Quantity and type of solids present
• Pump size
• Fluid velocity through the pump
• Solids passing capability of the pump
• Impeller type and speed
• Impeller speed
• Cutters and grinders within the pump

Eradicator Plus

The Eradicator Plus™ is made for extreme-duty applications. Features include an easily removable lightweight inspection cover, a back cover plate with an obstruction-free flow path, a heavy-duty hardened continuous vane impeller with a back shroud to prevent debris build-up, an extra-thick hardened wear plate with aggressive notches, grooves, and a lacerating tooth to cut and shred solids, and a large diameter heavy-duty stainless steel shaft.

Eradicator Plus™ upgrade kits are available for Super T-Series^® pumps. Based on the existing product model number, kits will include all components needed for easy onsite conversion.
