Abstract

A grinder pump station is capable of having its height adjusted in the field during installation, and includes a substantially cylindrical inner wall having an inner surface and an outer surface. The inner surface of the inner wall defines a cavity for insertion and mounting of a grinder pump therein. In addition to the substantially cylindrical inner wall, there is a substantially cylindrical outer wall having an inner surface and outer surface, wherein the outer wall has a diameter greater than the inner wall. For increasing the structural integrity of the grinder pump station, a plurality of rigid members extend between the substantially cylindrical inner wall and the substantially cylindrical outer wall, each of the plurality of rigid members being affixed to the inner wall and each of the plurality of rigid members being engaged to the inner surface of the outer wall. A base disposed is located adjacent to a lower portion of the inner and outer walls. The grinder pump station may include a plurality of rigid members that define a central corrugated wall. The central corrugated wall may further comprise a plurality of alternating crests and troughs, wherein each of the crests are engaged to the inner surface of the outer wall and each of the troughs are affixed to the outer surface of the inner wall.
