PierPump: All-in-one solution for wastewater and bilge water on board
Case study: Stenhuis Marina
Problem
A wastewater pump with frequent problems, such as jamming.
Solution
PierPump SB160
The customer
Marina Stenhuis is a modern and well-maintained marina located directly on the Westeinderplassen in Aalsmeer, the Netherlands. The marina has 265 berths for boats ranging from 5 to 15 meters. Visitors can also make use of (heated) winter storage and a wide range of maintenance services.
The problem
The old wastewater pump suffered from frequent blockages. This meant extra work for the harbour masters and downtime for users who could not dispose of their wastewater or bilge water. The result was an inefficient process and dissatisfaction among visitors.
The solution
"Finally a pump that really works," users of Stenhuis Marina said after the new pump was installed.
The PierPump SB160 offers a reliable and user-friendly solution for discharging both wastewater and bilge water. The SB160 consists of two pumps in a single compact housing. Thanks to the lobe pumps, which do not require check valves, harbourmasters save as much as three hours of work per week.
In addition, the pump empties a tank within a few minutes, reducing waiting times and significantly increasing ease of use for boat owners. As a result, the PierPump is now used three times as often as the old pump at Stenhuis Marina.
