The APS Foul and Storm Water GRP pumping stations are manufactured to BS 4994/ISO 976 under a strict quality control system with checks at all stages of construction. The chop-hoop filament winding process produces not only circumferential strength but also strong longitudinal strength.
This method means that shells can be cut for manholes and pipework without any undue loss in strength and ensures that deep burial depths can be safely accommodated. After a long evaluation process, our package pump systems have been awarded the coveted WRc approval which signifies compliance with BS EN 752-6 for pump stations and Sewers for Adoption 6th edition.

Chambers
Chambers are designed to suit your specific site requirements. All guiderails, valves and pipework are pre-factory fitted avoiding any confined space requirements on site, just couple up to the relevant drainage and backfill.
Kiosks
Kiosks are available in GRP or mild steel. These are fully weatherproof and come in a variety of sizes. They have a plywood backboard for mounting the equipment or control panel and have a Yale lock as standard. Optional extras include a vision panel, heater and a generator catflap.
Monitoring and Control
Control Panels are available in a multitude of combinations and range from a simple one pump starter to a full sewers for adoption control station. Our most popular model which can be either single or dual pump and contains isolator, hand/off/auto switch, pump run and trip lamps, ammeter and hour meter and high level alarm signal. Other features are:
Ultrasonic
Ultrasonic level measurement provides the optimum control for pump operation in a typical wet well installation. In its simplest form, it can operate a single pump and raise a high level alarm. However, it can also be used to run a complete pumping station of 2 or 3 pumps and be programmed to carry out a vast number of options, including pump down on a daily basis to remove sludge build-up and to monitor performance.
Covers and Frames
Covers and Frames in galvanised mild steel from pedestrian duty up to facta D 44T SMV are stocked.
