Significantly Lowers O&M Costs, Increases Ease of Operation and Operator Safety Compared to Submersible Wastewater Pumps
LENEXA, Kan. – 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. This state-of-the-art packaged pump station features premium efficiency motors specifically engineered for wastewater applications, resulting in reduced energy consumption and a smaller carbon footprint.
Like all Smith & Loveless above-ground stations, the EV Series 2000 positions all mechanical equipment safely above ground and outside the wet well. This design eliminates confined space hazards during routine maintenance and operation, significantly improving operator safety. The Series 2000 distinguishes itself with a two-piece rolling enclosure, providing enhanced accessibility to all mechanical and electrical components.
The cost savings for maintenance and operation are proven and well-documented. A study conducted by a Kansas municipality comparing 32 S&L above-ground pump stations to 21 submersible pump stations over 12 years revealed nearly 56% lower operating expenses for S&L stations, translating to annual savings of greater than $3,000 per station in maintenance and parts.
Equipped with S&L STAR ONE Non-Clog Pumps, the EV Series 2000 offers superior longevity and efficiency. These centrifugal solids-handling pumps typically last three to five times longer than submersible pumps and maintain higher efficiencies across various pumping conditions. For applications dealing with heavy debris, the optional mono-port X-PELLER® impeller effectively handles flushable and stringy materials.
The EV 2000 features standard relay logic controls, providing a user-friendly base control system that operators find easy to operate and repair. Additional options include RapidJack® check valves for simplified maintenance and the DURO-LAST® 316/Lean Duplex Series 2100 Stainless Steel Baseplate, which comes with an industry-leading 25-year warranty.
The EVERLAST Series 2000 Pump Station exemplifies Smith & Loveless’s commitment to providing efficient, safe, and cost-effective wastewater pumping solutions. To read and learn more about the operational efficiencies of EVERLAST
