Smith & Loveless Introduces A New Factory-Built Solution to Upgrade WWTPs to MBRs

Smith & Loveless Inc. highlights the EVERLAST Series 2000 Pump Station, an economical above-ground wastewater pumping solution that combines efficiency, long service life, and operator safety. The EV Series 2000 pump station comes as a complete, factory-built, and tested system designed for quick installation in both new and replacement projects.

There is a growing trend towards moving wastewater pumping equipment out of an underground environment to increase equipment lifecycles, reduce labor and replacement costs, and increase worker safety. The trend away from submersible pumps toward above-ground pump stations eliminates the frequent pulling and replacement due to clogs and failures and reduces hazards and costs of accessing confined spaces. Read on for an overview of key advantages, as well as examples of how communities have achieved cost savings by moving towards above-ground systems.

We naturally adjust our expectations within the constraints of what is practical. When we lived in an analog world, we didn’t expect or even easily imagine what would become possible in the digital era. But as technology evolves, we expand our expectations, raise our standards, and eventually become dependent on new levels of performance. That’s what’s happening with grit removal efficiency for wastewater treatment plants and sand removal in potable water plants.

Smith & Loveless highlights its innovative PISTA PRO-PAK. Designed to integrate seamlessly with the company’s PISTA Grit Chamber systems with top-mounted grit pump configurations, the PRO-PAK combines superior grit removal technology with a pre-engineered, protective housing enclosure for unparalleled efficiency and durability in extreme environmental conditions.

Smith & Loveless Inc. highlights the PISTA Works All-in-One Skid Package, an advanced, fully integrated headworks and grit removal system. PISTA Works is an ideal solution for small communities and wastewater systems requiring an affordable, efficient, and high-performance headworks facility, which can be installed with significantly less civil works and construction.

Smith & Loveless Inc. highlights the EVERLAST Series 1000 Pump Station, an above-ground wastewater pump station that continues the S&L hallmark of high efficiency, long service life, operator ease and safety, and low operation and maintenance costs. The EV Series 1000 pump station comes as a complete, factory-built, and tested system that is fast and simple to install in both new installations and replacements of submersible pumps.
