Complete Sewage Grinder Packages

by Zoeller

Grinder pumps are ideal in commercial and residential situations and are designed for high head sewage applications where a gravity system is not practical. These unique grinding pumps allow the use of a smaller diameter pipe since the contents have been ground up as the material passes through the pump, and they have the capability to pump against higher heads and break down the solids found in sanitary lift stations.

"THE SHARK®" Indoor
Complete & Job Ready Grinder System

These systems feature:

If you have an existing sewage ejector system but find it occasionally getting plugged (maybe because of foreign items accidentally making their way into the waste basin), then this could be the system for you. If you have rental property with a sewage ejector system and would like a little more peace of mind then this could definitely be the system for you! The pump has a sturdy cast iron housing and incorporates Zoellers new Tri-Slice cutter technology consisting of three independent cutting channels providing an astounding 250,000 cuts per minute! The cutter and disc assembly are both made of stainless steel for superior long lasting performance. Of course, these systems are designed for human waste and toilet tissue; they are not designed to deal with other items such as strands of wool, sanitary napkins, dental floss, cat litter, disposable diapers, etc.

The best part about these systems are the fact they can easily fit into and replace your existing indoor sewage ejector pumping system. The pump, alarm, float switches, and all of the internal PVC piping and fittings are factory installed onto a stainless steel frame attached to the 1/8" steel lid. Simply unscrew the cover/lid from the basin and using the two lift handles, remove the entire internal system and drop it into your existing basin. The steel cover includes universal bolts to attach to most existing basins without the need for modification. The basin is always included to help protect the internal grinder system from damage during shipment whether or not it will be used.

These 915 Shark® Series Grinder Packages are completely assembled and job-site ready for quick installation. A hefty 1/2 HP motor allows this pump to shred waste material and push effluent liquid 32 gpm @ 5' head pressure out through the 1 1/4" discharge. The 1/2 HP 115 volt motor in encased in an oil filled housing, creating a cooler running motor that draws only 7.0 amps (FLA).

These systems include the pump, a polyethylene molded or fiberglass basin with a 4" inlet, an 1/8" steel cover with stainless steel hardware, an alarm system, float switches, PVC piping, 1 1/4" check valve with unions and a stainless steel mounting frame. The stainless steel frame also acts as an integral baffle and deflection sytem so up to 4" waste solids can enter the basin without obstructing the float. An ingenious Basin Scouring System helps prevent grease and sludge build up. When the pump is on, liquid is pumped out of two small weep holes in the discharge elbow, to automatically create a swirling effect inside the bottom of the basin. This helps break down solids and agitate standing liquid, further reducing the build up of sludge.

This indoor grinder system includes a 24" X 36" fiberglass sewage basin with a steel lid and the powerful, durable, heavy duty 2 HP automatic Shark® Series 820 grinder pump (model 820-0011) installed as part of the basin assembly (model 32-0011).

The pump curve chart shows you more detail as to how this pump will perform at your specific pump height requirements.

The pump has an oil-filled, hermetically sealed motor with Class B insulation, an automatic reset and is thermal overload protected. The maximum operating temperature is 130°F.  The upper and lower ball bearings run in a bath of oil to provide years of smooth operation. Made of finned cast iron with a powder coated epoxy finish this pump incorporates a hardened stainless steel cutter and disc for superior grinding power. The pump is designed so that the cutters are protected from abrasive type solids. A weight assembly is included and installed to give the high level float a pivot point and allowing the float to freely move up or down to turn the pump off and sound an alarm if activated by a high water level condition.

This pre-assembled, packaged and job ready system also includes a high water alarm (model 10-1494) with a 9 volt battery backup (battery not included) that requires the NEMA 1 non corrosive indoor enclosure to be field installed. The system schematic also shows in detail the three piece steel basin cover plate that includes an inspection plate and a pump access plate with a lifting bolt.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. "What's the difference between an automatic and non-automatic pump?"
A. An automatic pump has a built in float switch that will turn on the pump automatically at a fixed water level. After the water is pumped out to certain water level (also a preset level), the pump will turn itself off. A non-automatic pump has to be manually turned on and off, or with a separate control like a piggyback float switch.

Q. "What does the automatic reset thermal overload protection do?"
A. If the pump gets too hot the thermal overload protection will turn it off until the pump cools down (to prevent damage to the motor). The pump turns back on after it has cooled down enough. This backup protection feature is useful if some debris causes the pump to overheat.

Q. "What does progressive cavity mean?"
A. This type of pump transfers fluid by means of the progress, through the pump, of a sequence of small, fixed shape, discrete cavities as its rotor is turned.

Q. "Why is it called a submersible pump?"
A. These pumps are designed to be placed directly in the water. They draw the water up from the bottom of the pump.

Q. "Do I need to install a vent pipe to the tank?"
A. It really depends on how you plumb the piping to the tank and each situation is different. In many cases with any brand of sealed tank the simple answer is yes as you need air to displace the volume of discharge. An AAV may be used in many areas of the country but local codes always prevail and so best to check with your local code authorities before purchasing the enclosed tank system/s such as these shown on this page.

Q. "What does it mean when it says the basin comes with a 10' stack test steel cover?"
A. It means the basin and lid have been tested to withstand water pressure from a 10 ft. vertical pipe (stack) without leaking.

Q. "Can we order the 915 grinder system without the basin for a retrofit application?"
A.The 915 grinder systems are always shipped with the basin. The basin is also the shipping container to protect the entire internal system from damage. For retrofit applications, just remove and discard the basin.
