GRIX is a grinder pump with a suction-assisted cutting system that can grind solid matter. These pumps are used wherever liquid needs to be pumped through relatively small-diameter pipes, often already installed. Applications: domestic wastewater, dirty water containing solids, and any situation where high pressure is required.
Features
All main components are made of GG25 cast iron. Two separate mechanical seals (the motor side in the oil chamber and the impeller side in contact with the liquid), together with high-quality components, ensure excellent performance and product reliability.
Advantages of GRIX grinder pumps
The vacuum cutting system with a hardened steel blade in GRIX pumps effectively grinds household wastewater. The blades rotate over a perforated disc like a meat grinder, cutting everything into small pieces so wastewater can be pumped through narrow pipes as small as DN40. The adjustable clearance lets you control and precisely set the cutting parameters, even after the blades have been sharpened many times. The holes are positioned so that multiple items cannot be cut at the same time, preventing the blade from jamming and the pump from failing.
GRIX grinder pump installations
GRIX pumps are designed for small domestic sewage pumping stations and compact pumping stations often located in buildings. Pumps with a radial solids grinding system can be successfully installed on coupling feet such as the EASY 3.1 or EASY 3.2, in DRENO BOX pumping stations, or on DUTY 50 coupling feet.
Controlling a domestic grinder pump
For controlling GRIX pumps, we recommend M121 or M131 controllers (single- or three-phase), or purchasing a pump with a built-in float switch. For customers with more demanding requirements, we can offer advanced control systems, for example with 3, 4, or 5 float switches, a hydrostatic probe, or alarm signal outputs on a terminal strip, allowing connection to an external monitoring system.
Like every DRENO sewage pump, it comes standard with a 10-meter power cable. All GRIX pumps have a side outlet, making them compatible with coupling feet such as the EASY type.
