Elevator Pit Sump Pump Solutions

The Pit Sucker 1000 is an innovative lift pump for elevators located in areas prone to storm surge.  All electrical equipment is located in a waterproof enclosure outside of the elevator pit high on a wall.  Inside the elevator pit is the suction pipe and an oil & water detection system that will automatically activate the pump to remove the water from the elevator shaft.  Once oil hits the sensor, it turns the pump off to prevent the discharge of oil into the environment.  This is especially important in pits with hydraulic elevators.

The innovative oil & water detection control panel is designed to automatically sense the presence of oil and/oi water in an elevator pit.  Once it senses water, it will automatically activate the sump pump for quick and efficient removal from the elevator pit.  As oil floats on top of the water, as the water level recedes and the oil touches the oil detection sensor, it will automatically turn the pump off so oil is not discharged into the environment.

This control panel, coupled with the stainless steel sump pump, is an excellent package for the quick and efficient removal of water from your elevator pit and save you in costly repairs.

This is our go-to sump pump for elevator pits.  It's rugged stainless steel construction makes it a very reliable system, especially for elevator pits located near salt water.  Paired with the oil/water detection control panel, it will be a long-term investment for protection your valuable elevator equipment.
