S&L Wwmps
Smith & Loveless wet well mounted pump stations (WWMPs) are designed to reduce maintenance and operational costs compared to submersibles, offering lower lifetime expenses and enhanced safety since equipment is accessible above ground. The stations are factory-built for quality assurance and require less frequent repairs, thus minimizing the need for outside contractors. With features like the Sonic Start Streamline vacuum priming system, WWMPs are customizable and easy to install, making them a cost-effective solution for various pumping needs.

Operator SafetyCanOSHDefinition: Confined SpaceGenerally speaking, a confined space is an enclosed or partially enclosed space that: * is not primarily designed or intended for human occupancy * has a restricted entrance or exit by way of location, size or means * Can represent a risk for the for the health and safety of anyone who enters, due to one or more of the following factors: *its design, construction, location or atmosphere * the materials or substances in it * work activities being carried out in it, or the mechanical, process and safety hazards presentconfined spaces can be below or above ground. Confined spaces can be found in almost any workplace. A confined space, despite its name, is not necessarily small. Examples of confined spaces include silos, vats, hoppers, utility vaults, tanks, sewers, pipes, access shafts, truck or rail tank cars, aircraft wings. Ditches and trenches may also be a confined space when access or egress is limited.

Editor's Notes
- #5 The progressive Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City, Kan. operates numerous wastewater pump stations in its sewerage network, including 18 duplex Smith & Loveless vacuum primed Wet Well Mounted Pump Stations (WWMPS) and 18 duplex submersible stations. For each station (all with flow conditions of less than 1,000 GPM per pump and 50,000 GPD), the Unified Government keeps detailed records of all repair and maintenance work orders and costs. As Figure 1 demonstrates below, a comparative study reveals that the Unified Government spent 57% less money over three years (2002-2005) on the 18 S&L pump stations compared to the 18 submersibles, an astounding differential of more than $120,000. The study measures and compares labour hours and costs, outside contractor expense, material costs and total expenditure. In all, the results overwhelmingly favour the S&L Wet Well Mounted Pump Station approach with the thousands of dollars saved annually in maintenance and repairs.
- #6 Conclusions• Study offers actual snapshot and the realities of pump station maintenance and repair over time• Preventative maintenance of S&L WWMPS was less costly and time-consuming than submersibles• Repairs to S&L WWMPS were less frequent and less labour intensive than for submersibles• S&L WWMPS required the use of outside contractors less often than submersibles• S&L WWMPS experienced fewer pump failures and can generally be repaired as opposed to replaced• Repair and preventative maintenance costs of S&L WWMPS were 2 to 3 times less than submersible
- #9 NOT TO FORGET THE ‘RULES’ – S&L WWMPS eliminate the confined space issues-faced with submersibles
- #11 The Classic Wet Well Mounted Pump Station (WWMPS) delivers municipalities and industry a fully customized packaged lift station solution. It's compact, above-grade and arrives ready for installation after being factory-built and tested. An easy-lift fibreglass enclosure (fitted with S&L gas-shocks) provides instant access to all station equipment and protection from the elements. Inside, dependable S&L Pumps deliver superior pumping efficiencies and performance, saving on energy costs and yielding decades of reliable service.Classic Wet Well Mounted Pump Stations come with multiple control system options available from Smith & Loveless to meet customer requirements. These systems range from PLCs to pump controllers like PumpLogix to basic Relay Logic.
- #12 Delivering the Lowest Life-Cycle Costs in Wastewater PumpingSmith & Loveless Wet Well Mounted Pump Stations (WWMPS) revolutionize the way you think about wastewater lift stations. By mounting a complete lift station – including S&L pumps, piping, valves, controls – outside of and above the wet well, wastewater pumping becomes dramatically simpler, safer and more economical. Available in 2-pump, 3-pump, and 4-pump series arrangements, in completely above-grade, semi-recessed and CAPSULAR® configurations, S&L Wet Well Mounted Pump Stations feature pumping capacities (with pumps up to 12" in size) of up to 20,000 GPM & 500' TDH.
- #13 The FORMULA X® Wet Well Mounted Pump Station embodies the Smith & Loveless design philosophy of pump station excellence. The combination of proven S&L pumps and advanced, factory-built technology demonstrates why the station sets industry standards. It's armed with an array of standard components and features, delivering superior convenience and automation throughout the station. Exclusive features include easy-roll, split enclosure, standard piping arrangements, and an enhanced FORMULA X® Warranty that provides up to 10 years coverage on specified items.
