Thompson Pump Promotes Enviroprime® Standby Lift Station System at Upcoming GSA Expo Booth #1015

Thompson Pump & Manufacturing Co., Inc., a full-service manufacturer and provider of pumps, pumping equipment and engineering expertise, is promoting their Enviroprime® Standby Lift Station System at the upcoming GSA Expo in Orlando, FL.

Port Orange, FL, March 18, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Independent backup pumps are quickly replacing generators as the ideal contingency plan for lift stations. These permanently installed standby units continue pumping despite power loss or primary pump failures. They can also act as the primary pump during routine maintenance or repairs.

For decades, surface-mounted, diesel-driven trash pumps have been the staple of sewer bypass applications. Design features such as automatic priming and solids handling have brought simplicity and reliability to the portable pumping market. Now, the stationary lift station market can benefit from these same features.

Thompson Enviroprime® pumps are available in sizes 3” through 18” and can easily handle flows to 11,000 gallons-per-minute (GPM) and solids to 4.25” in diameter. The exclusive Thompson Enviroprime® system actively prevents sewage spills, unlike other automatic priming systems.

Advantages:

Fully automatic system begins pumping as sewage levels rise
Fully independent, diesel-driven, stand alone pumping unit permanently installed
Provides backup during emergencies but also for routine maintenance
User friendly- remote monitoring and notification integration
Less expensive than comparable diesel generators
More fuel efficient than comparable diesel generators
Various sizes available to handle light or heavy backup flows
Less complicated- no need for complex power transfer switches
Sound-attenuated enclosure not only reduces noise but also provides a secure, lockable canopy that prevents tampering and equipment damage
Compact design offers trouble-free surface-mounting with a smaller footprint thank a comparable generator
