Intelligent Wastewater Pumping Reduces Maintenance Costs, Saves Arizona Ratepayers

Pump clogging can be a perpetual problem for wastewater collection systems. Clogs can trip out the pump, burn up the motor, and reduce the service life of the motor, pump, impeller or other expensive components. Flygt Concertor®, a wastewater pumping solution with integrated intelligence, senses when a clog might be occurring and will adjust pump speed and direction to dislodge it.

In this video, hear how Epcor’s field operations team has been able to eliminate pump alarms and call-outs at one of its Arizona pump stations with the installation of the Flygt Concertor 6030. Less maintenance, less downtime, and less manpower have reduced costs – ultimately saving money for the ratepayers. Pump station control is provided with Xylem’s MultiSmart powered by Nexicon®. Preprogrammed for optimized pump station management, MultiSmart powered by Nexicon can control up to four pumps at a station, including Flygt Concertor and conventional pumps.
