What size air blower is in my sewage treatment plant?

Are you are looking for a replacement air blower/ air compressor for your sewage treatment plant? Wondering which air blower will suit your sewage treatment system? Firstly, check the make and model of air blower currently installed. It should have a model number such as LA80B or ET60. The number in this code indicates how many litres of air per minute the air pump blows out. You will likely need a replacement with the same l/min of output as your current air blower.

If you do not know what air blower is in your sewage treatment tank, you can find out what size air blower would suit your system by the size of the treatment plant / how many people the system is designed to serve.

Good manufacturers always follow the guidelines when supplying air compressors with their sewage treatment system. The air compressor component of the sewage treatment plant is usually outsourced to specialist air blower manufacturers such as Secoh, Charles Austen, MEDO or Hiblow. Therefore, you can get a replacement air pump very easily, as it doesn’t matter which make you choose, they all do the same thing. Some are better quality than others which gives them a longer life expectancy. This is reflected in the price.
