Glossary
Clearance
The clearance is the space that needs to be provided
for interventions.
Discharge piping
Piping for raising wastewater above the back-flow level
22
routing it to the sewer.
Dual station
Pumping station for wastewater equipped with a second
pump of the same power that starts automatically when
needed.
Effective volume
Volume to be discharged between the start level and
22
the stop level.
EN 12050-1
Current European standard for pumping stations
for effluents containing faecal material intended for
discharge below the back-flow level in buildings and on
land.
Inlet piping
Line through which wastewater from sanitary fixtures is
routed to the pumping station.
ND (NOMINAL DIAMETER)
26
Parameter used to characterise parts that are suitable
for each other, for example: pipes, connections, sleeves.
Noise level
Expected sound emissions, expressed in sound pressure
level LpA in dB(A).
Pumping station for wastewater
Facilities for the automatic collection and pumping of
wastewater and blackwater above the back-flow level.
Separator
Equipment which prevents, by gravity, the penetration
31
of harmful substances into the discharge system by
separating them from wastewater, for example: grease
trap.
Ventilation pipe
Ventilation duct limiting pressure variations inside the
wastewater pumping station. The pumping station must
be ventilated from above the roof (when it is installed
inside the house).
34
Wastewater
Water changed by the use that was made of it (for
example: domestic wastewater).
