Gorman-Rupp's ECH2OSTORM® VENTURI AERATOR

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Ech2oStorm is a static venturi aeration device installed in-line on the discharge side of a Gorman-Rupp centrifugal pump. It effectively introduces dissolved oxygen into the liquid being pumped, leveraging the Venturi Effect to create a vacuum that draws ambient air into the body of the Ech2oStorm. This air then mixes with the pumped liquid and is discharged, efficiently oxygenating the liquid.

With no moving parts, the Ech2oStorm offers exceptional reliability and easy maintenance when paired with a Gorman-Rupp pump. The simplicity of the system allows for competitive pricing compared to other aeration methods, and when offered as part of a factory-designed, -assembled, and -tested ReliaSource packaged system, the Ech2oStorm comes standard with a 60-month warranty, ensuring reliable performance.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Efficiently adds oxygen to wastewater, allowing organic compounds to be broken down quickly and preventing septic and odorous conditions.
• Reduces the size of organic solids through rapid decompression caused by the Venturi Effect, promoting aerobic bacteria and accelerating solids reduction.
• Degasses organic solids by exploding confined gas bubbles, separating solids, gases, and grease, improving primary clarifier operation and effluent quality.
• No moving parts, ensuring exceptional reliability and easy maintenance when paired with a Gorman-Rupp pump.
• It is competitively priced compared to other aeration systems due to its simplicity.
• Available in a factory-designed, -assembled, and -tested ReliaSource packaged system with a 60-month warranty for guaranteed reliable performance.
