Suitable applications for a 4/10 HP sewage pump
This 4/10 horsepower submersible pump handles raw sewage with solids up to two inches in diameter. It is designed for residential or light-commercial ejector basins where a manual, non-automatic unit is preferred. The hermetically sealed, oil-filled motor runs on 120 V AC single-phase power and draws 12.00 amps.
Installation notes and common issues
The pump body and impeller are cast iron, with a carbon-ceramic shaft seal for durability in abrasive waste. No float switch or control switch is included, so a separate level control must be wired in. Because the motor is oil-filled, the unit must remain submerged during operation to prevent overheating.
Checks before ordering
Verify that the basin provides enough liquid depth to keep the motor covered at all times. Confirm the electrical supply can deliver 120 V at 12.00 amps on a dedicated circuit. Ensure the discharge piping can accommodate the two-inch solids passage and the rated flow rates of 95 gpm at 10 ft head, 70 gpm at 15 ft head, and 37 gpm at 20 ft head.
