    Why an Elevator Pit Sump Pump?

    Malfunctioning Elevator

    Water can damage the elevator's machinery, such as motors and pulleys, which can cause the elevator to malfunction.

    Electrical Issues

    Water can damage the elevator's electrical systems and wiring, which can cause electrical failures.

    Corrosion

    Water can cause corrosion of the elevator's parts, brackets, and jacks.  This can lead to costly repairs and cause safety issues.

    Mold and Mildew

     Water can create an environment for mold and mildew to grow, which can damage the building's foundation and cause health problems for people in the building.  

    Hazardous Odors

     A buildup of water and condensation can create a foul odor that smells like rotten eggs. This odor is caused by hydrogen-sulfide gas, which can be hazardous to maintenance workers, lift technicians and elevator users. 

    How does water get into an elevator pit?

     Water can seep into an elevator pit through the walls, floor, joints, cracks, etc.  This happens frequently when the water tables are higher in rainy and storm season.  Sometimes the water can enter the pit through the roof, vents, or door.  If this is the situation, a sump pump system will be the only solution once appropriate repairs are made.

    Pit Sucker 1000 Lift Pump For Elevators

    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.

    Oil & Water Detection System for hydraulic elevator systems

    Elevator pit oil & water detection system required for 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.
