Overview

An innovative approach to wastewater pumping emerged when Smith & Loveless Inc. pioneered the factory-built pump station 75 years ago. Today, after nearly 30,000 installations, the vision that inspired B. Alden Smith & Compere Loveless flourishes through S&L’s innovative buried pump stations.

Model Options:

• CAPSULAR®
• Custom Series

CAPSULAR® Features and benefits

• Exclusive S&L Safe-Stair Entry Module [Option] – provides safe and easy access to the station, thereby reducing occupational requirements and the associated capital costs of buildings and concrete stations requiring underground access
• Future Adaptability – allows stations to be designed for future pumping conditions related to population growth, etc. Changes are easily accomplished through minor adaptions of rotating assemblies and/or controls
• Spacious Interiors with Internal HVAC – enables continuous human occupancy to safely inspect equipment. Functional options include internal shelving, work desks and sinks.
• Fluted Wall Design with 50-Year Cathodic Protection – provides structural support without outside I-beams. This design combined with VERSAPOX® coating enhances corrosion protection.
• Quality – Thorough pump/station testing prior to shipment
• Flexibility – Custom & standard designs meet customer requirements
• Value – Lower total installed & lifetime costs vs. built-in-place designs
• Optional custom features like multiple shell configurations, built-in desks, shelves, sinks, HVAC, and Soft Starts & Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs)

Custom Series Features and Benefits

• Custom Engineered Piping Layouts – The pipe layout is always designed to maximize open areas
• Environmental – With a ventilation blower, dehumidifier and lighting, the station is suitable for continuous human occupancy and provides a dry, comfortable climate in which to work
• Heavy Duty S&L Pump – Incorporates the largest stainless steel pump shaft with oversized bearing. Pumps and motors have some of the highest efficiencies in a wastewater pump
• Quality Control – Factory built and tested prior to job site delivery minimizes field labor and assembly problems
• Cost-efficient – Low installation costs combined with substantial energy savings make Smith & Loveless pump stations the most efficient solution for your underground wastewater pumping needs
• Custom Designed Controls – Controls can be the most utilitarian relay logic to the latest technology PLC’s.
