During the past 20 years, the wastewater industry has significantly increased the use of variable frequency drives (VFDs) in wastewater pumping systems. Gorman-Rupp's VFD control panels provide better wastewater flow control through pumping stations than constant-speed pumps. Plus, as power costs continue to increase and utilities look for ways to reduce costs, VFDs often provide a great solution.
In wastewater applications, the importance of a dependable and efficient pumping system cannot be overstated. When selecting pumping equipment, the primary consideration should be optimizing long-term system performance rather than merely prioritizing the lowest initial cost.
The Gorman-Rupp Eradicator Solids Management System features an aggressive self-cleaning wear plate including notches and grooves and a patent-pending lacerating tooth that helps break up stringy materials and passes them through the pump without impacting performance or interrupting service.
Clearance Adjustment on Gorman-Rupp Super T-Series pumps is accomplished by an external shimless cover plate which allows for super easy adjustment of the clearance between the impeller and the wear plate. Adjusting the clearance between the impeller and wear plate is an important preventative maintenance task, and it is Super Easy!
