The Alpha V septic tank pump, thanks to its compact size and excellent mechanical properties, is ideal for pumping domestic and household wastewater.
Characteristics
All main components are made of GG20 cast iron. The mechanical and lip seals ensure proper operation of the product. 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 septic tank pump is an ideal solution for those looking for a professional product for use at home or in a small business. The specifications of the Alpha V pump offer an alternative to pumps with macerators, which often become clogged, causing operating difficulties for the user. The 35 mm free passage beneath the impeller allows long-term operation without the need for intervention. Open six-blade Vortex impellers handle even fibrous wastewater content perfectly, whereas macerators act like winding devices. Macerator blades quickly become blunt in wastewater, acting like wedges and blocking the pump. Wastewater pumps with a free passage beneath the impeller are free from these drawbacks. The impeller’s thick walls are sufficient for many years of operation in untreated residential wastewater.
When selecting a pump, the specifications of the available pipeline should be checked, as the diameter of the discharge pipe or the terrain geometry may sometimes require the use of greater power.
Control
Alpha V is available in four versions combining single- and three-phase power supplies with control by a built-in float switch or an external signal. To control septic tank pumps (except versions with a built-in float switch), we recommend the simple M121 M121 (230 V) or M131 (400 V) controllers, or IPC 140 in the M version (230 V) or T version (400 V). For more demanding users and twin-pump lifting stations, we offer professional power and control panels with relay-contactor and microprocessor control.
Possible applications
With a suitable hose connection, it becomes a lightweight portable pump for drainage and handling liquids with a high content of solids (gravel, sand, waste). The Alpha V septic tank pump can easily water a garden with rainwater, drain a flooded garage or basement, and pump water from a pond or ditch into another tank. Alpha V has stable feet extending from the pump body, allowing it to stand on level ground while providing sufficient clearance beneath the body for water intake.
Like every DRENO wastewater pump, it comes standard with a 10-meter power cable. All Alpha V pumps have a vertical outlet and therefore are not compatible with coupling feet, e.g. the EASY.
