I'm looking at a fairly high head wastewater pumping application for a realitively small flow (~350 GPM @ 365' TDH).
I can find traditional solids handling pumps that would work connected in series. However, given the pump station is collecting flow from an entire small town I'm thinking a bar screen, or more likely a grinder, may be a necessity. That said, I'd like to hear some thoughts on using a pump behind the screen or grinder that passes a smaller solid in order to get a more efficient pump and maybe eliminate the second set of pumps.
Thanks
Mike
