In the ever-evolving landscape of water management, diversifying sources and improving efficiencies have become essential priorities. As municipalities and industry leaders look for sustainable solutions, the emergence of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) integrated pump stations marks a pivotal development. 

♦Definition of FRP integrated pump station

As an important equipment for lifting sewage, rainwater, drinking water and wastewater, FRP integrated pump station is usually prefabricated and assembled in the factory and then transported to the site for installation. Its core components include top cover, FRP cylinder, base, submersible pump, service platform and connecting pipes.

 

♦ Comparison between traditional pump station and FRP integrated pump station

There are significant differences between traditional pump station and FRP integrated pump station in many aspects. First, in terms of prefabrication method, traditional pump station is usually made and installed on site, while integrated pump station is prefabricated and assembled in the factory, which greatly improves efficiency and accuracy. Secondly, in the installation process, traditional pump station requires cumbersome construction steps, while integrated pump station simplifies this process and reduces the difficulty of installation. In addition, in terms of functionality and durability, the integrated pump station also performs well. Its FRP cylinder design makes the equipment more durable and optimizes performance.

1. Floor space: Traditional pumping stations require the construction of a control room, which occupies a large area; while the integrated pumping station adopts a fully buried design, which occupies a small area and is easy to maintain.

2. Construction period: Traditional pumping stations need to be constructed in steps, including the pouring and maintenance of the pumping station bottom plate, pool wall, and top plate. The whole process takes 2-3 months; while the integrated pumping station has been prefabricated and tested in the factory. Only excavation, hoisting, connection of pipelines and circuits, backfilling and compaction, and debugging of the equipment's electronic control system are required on site. The whole process only takes 2-3 days, which greatly saves time and cost.

3. Control system: Traditional pumping stations require the establishment of a special control room and are equipped with dedicated personnel for management, and the subsequent maintenance costs are high; while the FRP integrated pumping station adopts advanced intelligent monitoring systems and remote control technology. Customers do not need to set up a control room to achieve remote control of the pumping station, reducing labor costs.

4. Service life: The concrete used in traditional pumping stations is a porous material, which is easy to react with the gas and acidic substances in the soil, causing corrosion, leakage and cracking; while the FRP integrated pumping station uses glass-reinforced thermosetting plastics with strong resistance to chemical corrosion, and is equipped with a self-cleaning fluid base and a non-clogging submersible pump to ensure the continuous and excellent operation of the pumping station, thereby extending its service life.

At present, integrated pumping stations are widely used in the fields of rainwater lifting and sewage treatment. For example, they can be seen in domestic sewage treatment, sewage treatment plant projects, scenic area sewage treatment, road rainwater and sewage lifting, and urban flood control. FRP integrated pumping stations can simply treat sewage before discharging it into municipal sewage pipes, so they are often used in sewage treatment plants. In addition, in township drainage, pumping stations are also used to lift and transport accumulated rainwater. At the same time, in the agricultural production process, FRP integrated pumping stations can also play their role in diverting water from the canal to farmland for irrigation.

 

♦ Product features of FRP integrated prefabricated pumping stations

As an advanced sewage treatment equipment, FRP integrated prefabricated pumping stations have many unique product characteristics. It uses FRP material to ensure the durability and corrosion resistance of the product; at the same time, the prefabricated design makes the installation process easier and faster. In addition, the pumping station also integrates an intelligent control system to achieve remote monitoring and automatic adjustment, greatly improving the convenience and efficiency of use. These characteristics make FRP integrated prefabricated pumping stations stand out in the field of sewage treatment and become ideal sewage treatment equipment.

1. Flexible and customized FRP integrated prefabricated pump station

The FRP integrated prefabricated pump station can be customized according to the on-site equipment design drawings provided by the user, so as to ensure that the provided pump station can fully meet the actual application needs.

2. Design innovation of FRP integrated prefabricated pump station

The pump station is made of FRP material, and its steel cylinder can be flexibly equipped with one or two submersible sewage pumps. These submersible sewage pumps are of various types, including open impeller submersible sewage pumps, submersible sewage pumps with cutting impellers, etc., which can be easily installed through active coupling equipment. In addition, the pump station also has a quick maintenance and replacement function. The pump can be easily repaired and replaced without entering the box or emptying the water tank, which greatly improves the convenience of use.

3. Beautiful design of FRP integrated prefabricated pump station

The pump station cleverly preburies the entire cylinder underground, and only sets up a manhole and exhaust system on the top, making the overall appearance simple and beautiful. Its control cabinet can flexibly choose an outdoor rainproof type, and coordinate with the appearance of the surrounding environment and house, further enhancing the overall aesthetics. In addition, the pump station also has a remote control function to meet the use requirements in various complex environments.

4. Application of FRP in pump station cost savings

As a complete set of equipment, the internal components of the FRP integrated prefabricated pump station, such as pipes, couplings, filtration systems, valves, ladders, and liquid level detection equipment, have all been carefully debugged before leaving the factory. During on-site installation, it is only necessary to hoist the pump station as a whole into the reserved pit and simply fill and fix it. This design not only significantly shortens the civil construction period, but also greatly reduces the project cost, thereby reducing the user's overall investment.

5. Application of FRP in improving the service life of sewage pump stations

The FRP integrated sewage lifting pump station uses FRP as the barrel material, and its pipeline accessories are made of anti-corrosion materials such as stainless steel 304 and hot-dip galvanizing. This design allows the pump station to easily reach a service life of more than 7 years under normal use without special maintenance.
