Zoeller Zoeller Model 161 Float Switch Effluent Pump 0.5 HP, 115V

Zoeller Model BN161 nonautomatic Effluent Pump is designed to remove effluent or ground water in septic or effluent applications. The 1/2 HP BN161 is a time-tested and reliable effluent pump. The BN161 is a nonautomatic pump that includes a piggyback float switch for operation. This option allows you to set the on and off point of the pump in the field. This is ideal in an application with a deep sump pit or pump tank. The pump’s vortex impeller allows it to pass 3/4" spherical solids. The impeller’s clearance in relation to the pump housing allows water and solids to pass freely through the pump. This combination of design features lessens the chance of clogging and downtime. The Model 161’s motor housing, pump housing, and base are each constructed of cast iron. The pump’s identification tag, handle, and hardware are made of non-corrodible stainless steel. This attention to detail ensures that the Model 161 is able to withstand the most demanding effluent applications. Every pump is submerged in water and tested to its published performance curve, ensuring it meets Zoeller's expectations and delivers peace of mind right-out-of-the-box.
