Derived from the rugged Thompson heavy duty wet priming centrifugal open trash/sewage pumps and improved by the addition of an auxiliary vacuum pump, these pumps are used in many situations including open pumping, wellpoint systems and sewage bypass. The pumps deliver the fastest priming in the industry and provide continuous pumping of liquids mixed with a high percentage of air. Even liquids containing high abrasives or solids in suspension flow through with ease. Thompson Super Suction vacuum-assisted pumps are especially useful in high lift situations not suitable for standard trash pumps.
Construction: Dewatering excavations, canals and sumps; groundwater dewatering with wellpoint systems or sock underdrains; bypassing sewers and bodies of water; extended sumping; wellpoint dewatering; groundwater dewatering; water supply from wells or canals; hosing down concrete castings
Civil Engineering: Sewage pumping; flood drainage; fire fighting; recovery of hazardous liquids
Waste Treatment: Sewer bypasses; pumping polluted hot or corrosive waste water containing sand, mud or solids in suspension; dosing neutralizing liquids; pumping out sludge
Mining: Wash-down operations; tailings; high head/high volume applications
Industrial: Transfer of neutral, acid or alkali clean or dirty liquids containing sand, mud or solids in suspension; low viscosity petroleum products
Agricultural: Surface irrigation; liquid manure oxygenation; transfer and spraying fertilizers or manure
Note: Alternate pump end materials available for corrosive liquids
