BJM Pumps RAD-AX SKG submersible pumps
The SKG Series from BJM Pumps feature RAD-AX Dual Shredding Technology and are designed to obliterate flushable wipes and other difficult solids in municipal and industrial wastewater applications. The radial and axial shredding elements are constructed of hardened 440C stainless steel with a Rockwell hardness of 55C plus. They have an efficient, high-solids passage impeller and volute design, coupled to a high-torque four-pole motor available in 2, 3 or 5 hp. Hardened cast iron construction stands up to rough handling and pumping gritty water. An automatic thermal switch turns the pump motor off if the temperature and/or amp draw rises too high. When the motor cools, the switch will automatically reset and the pump will turn back on. 877/256-7867

QED Environmental Systems Power Pro ESP electric sampling pump
The Power Pro ESP electric sampling pump from QED Environmental Systems combines the benefits of the two common types of electric groundwater sampling pumps — the high-powered pump and the disposable pump — into one unit. Its in-water sensor indicates when the pump has hit water, and numbered hash marks on the cable allow for easy measuring past the waterline. The sensor also works in reverse to provide run-dry protection. When the sensor no longer detects water, it stops the pump and automatically restarts it when the water level recovers. 800/810-9908

Val-Matic Swing-Flex and Surgebuster check valves
Val-Matic’s Swing-Flex and Surgebuster check valves have a short, 35-degree stroke that provides fast closure to minimize slamming and slam-related surges. The Swing-Flex has a nonclog design with only one moving part, and is constructed of ductile iron with cold working pressures up to 250 psi. The Surgebuster has all the design features of the Swing-Flex, with the addition of the Disc Accelerator to prevent slamming in the most severe applications. The accelerator is a precision-formed stainless steel mechanism that closes the valve disc rapidly, avoiding slamming by flow reversal and allowing the disc to be stabilized under flow conditions. The accelerator is fully enclosed within the valve and completely out of the flow path. 630/941-7600
