24/7 PUMP STATION EMERGENCY SUPPORT

Urgent Help for Pump Station Failure and High-Level Alarms

The immediate priority is to reduce risk, protect the site and establish whether temporary measures are needed before permanent repair.

Emergency attendance may involve pump and control checks, level assessment, blockage investigation, temporary pumping or tankering coordination, pump removal and repair planning.

Access to chambers can be hazardous. Do not enter or lean into a wet well, and do not bypass electrical protection or alarms.

High-level alarm

Urgent assessment where levels continue to rise or storage is limited.

Pump failure

Check failed, tripping, blocked or non-running duty/standby pumps.

Sewage or flood risk

Prioritise containment, reduced inflow and temporary measures.

Control fault

Investigate power, panel, level device, alarm and changeover faults.

SYSTEM DESIGN AND DELIVERY

A Complete Pump Station
Approach

Send the station drawings, pump and panel information, fault history or proposed duty for a technical review.

When calling, state the site address, liquid type, current level, alarm condition, number of pumps, whether power is present, access restrictions and any immediate overflow or flooding.

Where safe, reduce avoidable incoming water use and keep people away from open chambers and electrical equipment. Do not silence alarms without recording the condition.

Emergency attendance aims to stabilise the situation and identify the next action. Permanent repair, parts, tankering and replacement equipment may require a separate agreed scope.
