• Powerful pre-assembled Duplex 1.5 hp vortex lift station capable of discharging wastewater from multiple fixtures Vortex system designed to handle sanitary products and large diameter solids (2 in) Rated IP68 with external control and alarm connections Easy dual access service panels

The Sanicubic 2 VX is a 1.5 hp heavy-duty duplex vortex system used to pump away waste water from several bathrooms and fixtures from an entire building structure. This system is able to discharge the waste up to 36 ft vertical using a 2 in Dia pipe or up to 20 ft when discharging through a 4 in pipe. It incorporates a Vortex system which is ideal for uncontrolled environments in both residential and commercial applications (ie. Rental unit, offices, warehouses and more). The Sanicubic 2 VX is designed to handle sanitary products that may have been flushed down the toilet such may consist of condoms, sanitary napkins, q-tips, dental floss and more as well as large diameter solids. This system consists of two 1.5 hp motors housed inside a compact but highly durable plastic enclosure. Incorporates a couple of vortex impellers capable of handling up to 2 in solids. The Sanicubic 2 VX operation is as simple as the installation. The effluent enters the pump through one of five different inlets- one on either side of the unit at the bottom and three along the top. The inlets can accommodate 1-1/2 or 4 in Dia pipes. As soon as the wastewater level reaches the trigger point, the pumping system activates. The effluent is then pumped out through 2 or 4 in Dia rigid pipe connected on the top of the pump. The inside of the Sanicubic 2 VX comprises of a couple of pressure switches and a circuit board assembly, which starts and stops the unit and of a couple of motors, which drive the Vortex impellers and the pump. The motors are sealed for life in an oil filled enclosure. A common spindle/shaft drives each of the impellers. The moving parts therefore are kept to an absolute minimum. The two Vortex impellers inside the Sanicubic 2 VX are engineered to operate alternately. They each take turns handling the wastewater so that neither is more heavily used over time than the other. However, if either pump ceases to operate, the other pump will run full-time until servicing can eliminate the problem. One of the many features of the Sanicubic 2 VX, is the smart-pump operation. A single pump is able to handle up to 125 gpm (2 in) or 137 gpm (4 in). If the incoming rate is higher than the discharge rate, the pump automatically signals the "overload" stage. This will activate the second pump and both pumps will operate simultaneously until the condition is alleviated. When both pumps are in operation, the discharge rate increases roughly 80%. In this event, a visual LED alarm on the control panel will switch to red as well as the audible alarm will go off. Note that the effluent pipe leading into the pump has to be installed with the required 1/4 in per foot gravity flow. There must be a 12 in height difference (from pump to connecting fixture) if the drain is connected to the bottom inlet. The wastewater from other sanitary fixtures is discharged into the Sanicubic 2 VX via five 1-1/2 or 4 in inlets, on either side of the housing and on the top of the enclosure. The internal discharge pipe comes equipped with a check valve that prevents back flow into the unit. Isolating valves (ball, gate valves) must be installed on waste inlets and on the discharge pipe to ensure that any service/maintenance may be carried out safely. This unit has been designed with a 2-1/2 in vent connection on the top of the enclosure. All plumbing codes require connection to a vent system. Please note that the vent system should be a two-way air vent. The use of mechanical vents, air admittance valves or similar devices are not permitted as these are considered one-way air vent systems. The Sanicubic 2 VX is IP68-rated for possible submergence which eliminates any potential water damage to internal components. It comes equipped with an external control panel as well as a visual and audible alarm system (15 ft long wire).
