Thanks to its compact size and excellent mechanical properties, the Alpha V sewage pump is ideal for pumping domestic wastewater.
Specifications
All main components are made of GG20 cast iron. Mechanical and lip seals ensure the product operates correctly. They are also available in a new EVO version with a double mechanical seal in the oil chamber.
Advantages of Alpha V pumps
The Alpha V sewage pump is the ideal solution for anyone looking for a professional product for use at home or in a small business. The Alpha V’s specifications make it an alternative to pumps with a macerator, which often clogs and can cause operational difficulties. The 35 mm free passage beneath the impeller ensures long-lasting operation without the need for intervention. Open six-vane Vortex impellers handle even fibrous sewage with ease, while macerators act like winding machines. Macerator blades quickly become blunt in sewage, acting like wedges and blocking the pump. Sewage pumps with a free passage beneath the impeller do not have these drawbacks. The impeller’s thick walls ensure years of operation in raw domestic sewage.
When selecting a pump, check the specifications of the available piping, as the discharge pipe diameter or site geometry may sometimes require a more powerful pump.
Control
The Alpha V comes in four versions, combining single- and three-phase power with control via a built-in float or an external signal. To control septic tank pumps (except versions with a built-in float), we recommend simple controllers M121 (230 V) or M131 (400 V), or IPC 140 in M (230 V) or T (400 V) versions. For more demanding users and dual-pump pumping stations, we offer professional power and control panels with relay-contactor and microprocessor control.
Possible applications
When fitted with the appropriate hose connection, it becomes a lightweight portable pump for drainage and handling liquids with a high solids content (gravel, sand, waste). The Alpha V septic tank pump can easily water a garden with rainwater, drain a flooded garage or basement, or pump water from a pond or ditch into another tank. The Alpha V has stable feet that protrude from the pump body, allowing it to stand on level ground with sufficient clearance beneath the body for water intake.
Like every DRENO sewage pump, it comes standard with a 10-meter power cable. All Alpha V pumps have a vertical outlet, so they are not compatible with coupling feet, e.g. EASY.
