Hiblow xp 80

Aeration Pump

HIBLOW XP-80 

The HIBLOW XP-80 linear diaphragm air pump utilizes a rare earth neodymium magnet that allows the unit to run on less than 60 watts of power — comparable to an incandescent light bulb. The aerator has a small footprint and weighs less than 10 pounds, allowing for cost-efficient shipping. It takes up less space in a service truck and in protective enclosures — allowing for more air circulation to cool the pump. The neodymium magnet helps the pump maintain a low operating temperature, assisting with optimizing pump service life. 734-944-5032; www.hiblow-usa.com

Septic products 50b019 120dd 2cal

Septic Products 50B019-120DD-2CAL

The 50B019-120DD-2CAL from Septic Products is a duplex alternating bioaerobic, time-dosed control panel that runs two single-phase, 120-volt pumps up to 20 full load amps and also runs two compressors. This panel has two lights. The red light and buzzer notify the end user of a high-water condition. The amber light and buzzer notify the end user of air loss from a compressor. This panel has a repeat cycle timer in it to be set for a time-dose application. The purpose of “time dose” in wastewater treatment typically refers to a method used in systems like septic tanks or other biological treatment systems, where wastewater is introduced into the system in controlled doses over time, rather than all at once. This creates benefits such as improved treatment efficiency, enhanced biological breakdown and improved system longevity. A duplex alternating control panel that runs two compressors in a wastewater treatment system focuses on the specific needs of wastewater systems, where compressors are crucial for processes like aeration or gas handling. 419-282-5933; www.septicproducts.com
