Crane Pumps and Systems, Inc.
has announced the release of the new Barnes brand EcoTRAN residential basin package for use in Pressure Sewer systems.
The EcoTRAN System preserves groundwater ecology by collecting and grinding residential sewage in an underground basin and
transmitting the waste under pressure to a remote private or municipal waste treatment plant. Pressure Sewer
systems provide an economical sewering solution for waterfront, hilly, remote or otherwise challenging properties.
EcoTRAN offers simple installation.
The lower basin is ALWAYS the same and the riser pipe is easily adjusted to the desired depth
on the day of installation. Pre-Installed epoxy-coated rebar simplifies ballasting and regardless
of the depth requires only 1/3 yard of concrete to set in place. Three inlet positions provide substantial
piping location flexibility.
The Barnes EcoTRAN comes with a choice
of two highly dependable centrifugal grinder pumps including silicon carbide mechanical seals
and 100,000-hour bearings to minimize service calls. The unit is also provided with an automatic pressure
switch to control pump operation that is immune to grease build-up. The EcoTRAN system NEVER requires entry
into the basin, as all maintenance is done from topside.
The EcoTRAN System comes complete with
a choice of rock shaped covers offered in three colors, Cape Cod Gray, Sandstone and Sierra Red,
allowing homeowners an aesthetically pleasing installation that can readily blend with their landscaping.
Additionally, the basin cover and alarm box are fitted with padlocks to enhance safety, making the system
"child-proof".
