Thanks to its compact size and excellent mechanical properties, the Alpha V sewage pump is ideal for pumping domestic wastewater.
Specifications
The main components are made of GG20 cast iron. W the standard configuration, the lip seal is mounted on the motor side, and the mechanical seal on the impeller side. The pump in the “EVO” version has a double mechanical seal located in the oil chamber.
Advantages of Alpha V pumps
The Alpha V sewage pump is the ideal solution for those looking for a professional product for use at home or in a small business. The Alpha V pump’s specifications offer an alternative to pumps with a grinder, which often gets clogged, causing operational difficulties for users. The free passage beneath the impeller for contaminants up to 40 mm in size ensures long-lasting operation without the need for intervention. The open six-vane Vortex impellers handle even fibrous wastewater contents with ease, while grinders act like winding machines. Grinder blades quickly become blunt in wastewater, 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 are built to withstand years of operation in raw domestic wastewater. When selecting a pump, check the specifications of the available pipeline, as the discharge pipe diameter or site layout may sometimes require a more powerful pump.
Control
The Alpha V is available in four versions, combining single- and three-phase power with control via 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 (230 V) or M131 (400 V) controllers: M121 and M131. For more demanding users and dual-pump pumping stations, we offer professional power and control panels with relay-contactor or microprocessor control.
Possible applications
With the right hose connector, you get a lightweight, portable pump for drainage and handling liquids with a high solids content (gravel, sand, debris). The Alpha V septic tank pump can easily be used to water the garden with rainwater, drain a flooded garage or basement, or pump water from a pond or ditch into another tank. The Alpha V has sturdy feet that protrude from the pump housing, allowing it to stand on level ground while providing sufficient clearance beneath the housing 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, for example, type EASY.
