Pumping hot water from a sink with Zip Tap
Standard wastewater pumps are generally
only rated for a fluid operating temperature
of 40°C, occasionally a maximum of 60°C.
fluids, the U3K Spezial (SL) has been adopted
for many challenging pumping requirements.
Many leading fast-food chains, report excellent
performance in applications with heavy
deposits of coffee granules, milk skin etc.
With Zip taps becoming a common feature,
handling the drainage from these sinks
requires a more robust pump, one that
could be regularly subjected to higher liquid
temperatures above 40°C plus. However,
current dedicated hot water pumps can be
relatively large and space below sinks can
often be restricted.
Leading wastewater specialist Pump
Technology has the solution.
For sinks with Zip taps The Pump Technology
technical team looked carefully at the pump
options that would fit into their compact
DrainMinor.
They decided on the Jung Pumpen U3K
Spezial (SL) which has proved itself to be
extremely robust over may years of service.
This pump features a mechanical seal rather
than the lip shaft seal normally found with this
small size of submersible pump.
The DrainMinor features a recyclable
polyethylene tank and when the pump is
fitted with a low-level float, provides the
perfect compact wastewater pumping
solution. It also boasts an integral
(replaceable) charcoal vent, and a simple-
to-remove lid for cleaning and maintenance,
enabling easy installation and operation in
tight spots.
For commercial kitchen appliances such as
combi ovens, pasta makers and dishwashers
(also all needing to handle hotter water),
the company has developed the DrainMajor
wastewater pumping system which features a
730HES hot water pump, suitable for 90°C
Originally designed for mildly aggressive
