At Global Water, with over 47 years of expertise in water infrastructure, we make the selection process straightforward, ensuring you find the perfect fit for your commercial or municipal project's specifications.
Selecting the right pump station is essential for ensuring durability, optimal flow rate, and longevity. Whether you’re managing the demands of a commercial pump station or a municipal pump station, choosing the correct solution is crucial.
We simplify the decision by breaking down the advantages and benefits of our DrainAce and EnviroLift ranges, designed to handle the unique requirements of different applications.
Need tailored advice on selecting the right wastewater or stormwater pump station for your project? Contact us here for expert support.
Our range includes DrainAce and EnviroLift concrete pump stations. Both options are engineered with high-strength cement and calcareous aggregate, ensuring optimal performance and superior lifespan.
These units are durable, robust and corrosion-resistant, making them suitable for harsh sewage and stormwater applications.
Complying with industry standards, they guarantee reliable performance, minimal maintenance, and exceptional durability making them a long-lasting solution for your wastewater or stormwater projects.
The DrainAce concrete pump stations include a single mould-formed chamber, a concrete cover slab and lid, pump/s, pipework, control system and floats. These chambers are a great option if your project requires large storage or large pumps to suit high flow requirements. DrainAce concrete pump stations are designed for minimal excavation, making them suitable for various applications. They are commonly used as heavy residential pump stations as well as commercial pump stations. There are four DrainAce concrete sizes with diameters ranging from 1.83 m to 3.35 m and capacities ranging from 5,400 L to 22,600 L.
Due to their wider and shorter design compared to the EnviroLift range, these concrete tanks are typically favoured in situations where a high water table is present or where deep excavation is not feasible.
EnviroLift concrete pump stations are a premium option pump station for SA Water and municipal water pump stations. The one-piece mould-formed base ensures the structure is water-tight as the first join is above normal operating water level. The modular design of the Envirolift pump station allows for exceptional customisation and speedy installation. They comply with AS3735:2001 and WSAA Standard, making them a long-life wastewater or stormwater pump station solution, with a conservative 50 years design life.
The EnviroLift range has the option of an integral valve chamber, an internal valve chamber and an external valve chamber. When the pump discharge diameter is 80 mm or more, a valve chamber is required to make for easy access and maintenance to the isolation and check valves. The integral valve chamber has the advantages of a single excavation without interconnecting pipework and makes for a faster and a neater installation. The external valve chamber is typically used for councils or municipalities, however with this comes the risk of differential settlement between the pump station and the VC chamber as there’s interconnecting pipework.
Global Water engineered a custom concrete pump station for Polarity Plumbing to allow for potential flooding. Two 9,800 L DrainAce concrete pump stations were supplied to allow for the specified emergency storage as well as a stainless-steel battery backup system. This solution was key for a coastal residential project, ensuring optimal performance and protection in a corrosive environment.
Fulton Hogan Construction EnviroLift Project
Global Water assisted Fulton Hogan Construction with the design and commissioning of two wastewater pump stations at two major development sites. A wastewater system was needed to be put into place to convey sewerage from residential homes to the wastewater treatment plant. Two EnviroLift pump stations were supplied due to WASS regulatory approvals, and its compact shape.
Our DrainAce concrete pump stations are a more cost-effective option compared to the EnviroLift range. Both pump stations can vary significantly in price depending on the desired station capacity, flow rate, control system complexity, and any other project specifications that may be required. For an accurate price on a DrainAce or EnviroLift concrete pump station, please give our friendly sales team a call on 1300 145 622.
As mentioned above, depending on your project’s storage requirements and specified flow rate the best option will vary. Other factors to consider include application, excavation depth restrictions, inlet drain depth, site accessibility, and whether a high-water table is present.
