About the E/One Extreme Series Grinder Pump

All E/One grinder pump systems currently offered use the Extreme Series grinder pump. 

The grinder pump turns on and off automatically and runs for very short periods several times per day. Electrical consumption is low — a household that uses 250 gallons of water per day should use between 6 kwhr and 23 kwhr per month to run the pump. (Actual water and power usage will vary depending on the system pressure.)

Electrical Information

For a standard 240V single-phase installation, a dedicated 30A breaker is required, with #10 wire, to the E/One panel. You need to bring L1, L2, N and Gnd.

If only 208V power is available, a buck boost transformer is required to boost 208V to 240V. The E/One pump requires a minimum of 216V to start and run reliably.

E/One Grinder Pump Overview

 

How is the E/One SPD Pump Different from Centrifugal Pumps?

E/One’s low speed, high torque, 5.25-in (133 mm) wheel has an inlet velocity of 3.6 ft/sec (1.09 m./sec), which slowly introduces the debris into the cutter and is less likely to jam, bind, or suffocate.

The paddles on E/One’s cutter wheel stir the wastewater, which helps keep the tank clean and prevents sediment build up.

E/One’s grinder does not require sharpness to function properly and is a true macerator as opposed to a slicer. Slicers do not function properly once blade edges are dulled.

 

 

Small, 2.5-in (63.5 mm) diameter cutter wheels have a much higher inlet velocity of 22 ft/sec (6.94 m./sec), which leads to increased jamming, binding, and suffocating.

Higher velocity wheels wear faster and produce less stirring, leading to more retained sediment in the tank.
