The system incorporates a 500 liter capacity tank and is configured for automatic operation with two single-phase grinder pumps. This station is suitable for applications requiring reliable wastewater transfer from below-grade installations to mains sewage collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstructed from medium-density polyethylene, the 500 liter tank resists corrosion and features a compact overall footprint. The tank accommodates the installation of two GQG series submersible grinder pumps with horizontal delivery ports. Each pump incorporates a high-power grinding system designed to process solids and fibrous materials frequently encountered in raw sewage. The station includes a support kit with two float switches for automatic pump activation and a control box with starting capacitors for single-phase motor operation. Two duck foot coupling kits and two 63 mm PVC discharge pipe kits with ball valves and non-return ball valves complete the installation package. The tank supports underground installation with optional extensions and provides easy pump access through a screw-fixed cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach pump in the GEO 500-2GQGM 6-18 configuration is powered by a 0.9 kW single-phase motor operating on a 230 V ± 10% supply with a rated current of 7 Amps. The pump achieves a maximum head of 16.5 meters and a maximum flow of 13.2 m³\/h (220 L\/Min) per pump, delivering a combined maximum flow of 26.4 m³\/h (440 L\/Min) with both pumps in parallel operation. The discharge connection measures 63 mm in diameter. The induction motor operates at 2900 rpm with a 50 Hz power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThermal protection is incorporated within each motor, with the control panel providing additional protection and starting capacitor management. The pumps feature a 10 meter cable length and are rated for liquid temperatures up to 35°C. The grinding mechanism enables processing of solids typically found in raw sewage applications. The installation supports depths as required by the application configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual GQG grinder pump configuration with high-power grinding system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e500 liter medium-density polyethylene corrosion-resistant tank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHorizontal delivery port with 63 mm discharge connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupport kit with 2 float switches for automatic operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDuck foot coupling kits for pump installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl box with thermal protection and starting capacitors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnderground installation capable with extension options\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Calpeda","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50918213222647,"sku":"GEO 500-2GQGM 6-18","price":16734.63,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/0116\/3767\/files\/calpeda-geo-500-2gqgm-6-18-polyethylene-500l-lifting-station-municipal-sewage-grinder-system.png?v=1783322429","url":"https:\/\/foundationpumps.com.au\/products\/calpeda-geo-500-2gqgm-6-18-polyethylene-500l-lifting-station-municipal-sewage-grinder-system","provider":"Foundation Pumps","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
