Smith & Loveless develop stainless steel baseplate for pump stations

10 February 2010

The Duro-Last 316/Lean Duplex series 2100 stainless steel baseplate is suitable for Smith & Loveless above grade and recessed wet well mounted pump stations.

The Duro-Last 316/Lean Duplex series 2100 baseplate eliminates baseplate painting and provides longer pump station life and tougher protection against the corrosive agents common in sewage wet wells.

Existing wet well mounted pump stations can be retrofitted with Duro-Last stainless steel baseplates from Smith & Loveless. A station structure can be upgraded without having to replace the pumps, rotating assemblies and controls.
