Goulds 2ED series Effluent Pumps can be used in a wide variety of effluent systems, commonly found in farms, trailer courts, motels, schools, hospitals, and various industrial settings. 2ED series can handle spherical solids up to 3/4″.

One of the main features of the 2ED Series Effluent Pumps is the dual mechanical seal with sensor probe. The lower seal is comprised of silicon carbide vs. silicon carbide faces, while the upper seal is comprised of carbon vs. ceramic faces. Both seals include rugged stainless steel metal parts and are encased in BUNA-N elastomers. The seal sensor probe is located in an oil-filled chamber and can detect if leakage penetrates the lower seal. The sensor will send a signal to a Seal Fail Circuit in the control panel. An o-ring also assures positive sealing against contaminants and oil leakage.

The pump body itself is rugged cast iron while the motor shaft is corrosion resistant stainless steel of a threaded design. A locknut guards against component damage on accidental reverse rotation. The fasteners are 300 series stainless steel as well, while the pump has upper and lower heavy duty ball bearings.

The motor includes Class F insulation and is fully submerged in high grade turbine oil for lubrication and efficient heat transfer. The pump is rated for continuous use when submerged but can also be run dry without damage to the components. The power cable is severe duty rated, as well as oil and water resistant.
