I-Series 

Immersible Wastewater Pump 

Why Use Submersibles? 

See Video of 

I-SERIES Running 

Under Water! 

Spurred by concerns over the potential of pump station 

flooding—whether a dry-pit resides in a flood plain or experiences 

the ill-effects of failed mechanical seals and valves—many 

cities, engineers and developers often specify submersible 

pumps for dry-pit environments. At first glance, the logic seems 

reasonable: a “submersible” should theoretically run in the rare 

event of a dry-pit flooding. Yet, submersible pumps are specifically 

designed for wet pits, hence their name. More than that, the 

surrounding wastewater keeps the submerged pump motor 

properly cooled in order to maintain reasonable performance. 

When submersibles operate in a dry-pit application, they require 

extra fixtures and retooling in order to compensate for the lack 

of cooling when not submerged—in this case nearly 99.9 

percent of the time. This begs the question, 

“Why use a ‘submersible’ in a ‘dry’ application?” 

When submersibles are applied in dry-pits, the biggest problem 

becomes how to keep the submersible pump motor cooled. 

The popular method of cooling a dry-pit submersible is applying 

a cooling jacket. However, inherent problems in cooling jackets 

arise because some require circulating a small volume of the 

raw wastewater through the jacket. Sewage particles can 

periodically clog the passages in the jacket and prevent it from 

cooling the motor properly. 

If not properly cooled, heat build-up can cause a variety of 

scenarios that may not provide the necessary protection from 

flooding. First, overheating can unknowingly and adversely affect 

the pump’s moisture detectors. The dry-pit submersible pump 

may not run when actually submerged in a flood—the moisture 

detectors could fault it out and the pump fails to operate. 

Another heat build-up factor concerns the watertight grommets, 

located on top of the motor in many submersibles. In nonsubmerged 

conditions, the grommets may actually begin to 

dry rot, allowing the possibility of water to enter the motor and 

cause damage. When the motor fails, the pumps will likely require 

major overhaul because of the excessive wear. Not only is this 

costly, it also requires downtime while it is pulled out of service 

and sent to a service shop for rebuilding. Most service and 

maintenance procedures on submersibles cannot be performed 

in the field — especially with the exterior cooling jacket that is 

required for dry-pits. 

I-SERIES Immersible Pumps offer superior 

benefits compared to dry-pit submersibles.

Why Use Submersibles? (cont.) 

Again the question comes to mind, “Why use a 

‘submersible’ in a ‘dry’ application?” In reality, submersibles 

are not the most reliable or cost-effective option for 

protecting dry-pit applications from flooding events. 

Essentially, a dry-pit submersible runs in its optimal 

design conditions only 0.1 percent of the time—when it 

floods. And that is no guarantee either! 

When considering flood protection for dry-pit applications, 

specifiers should also consider the life cycle costs 

associated with dry-pit submersibles. Dry-pit 

submersibles have regular and periodic premiums: service 

contracts, overhauls, foreign parts, typically shorter 

service life and lower pump efficiencies than other kinds 

of pumps. These out-of-pocket expenditures can prove 

to be very costly. 

I-SERIES Immersible Pumps. 

Smith & Loveless is pleased to present a sensible alternative, the Smith & Loveless I-SERIES Immersible Pump. 

Unlike a submersible, the I-SERIES Immersible Pump runs optimally 100 percent of the time in dry-pit applications 

while providing the base protection necessary for flood events. Incorporating the Smith & Loveless TEFC motor and 

specially designed end bell seals at the top and bottom of the motor housing, I-SERIES Pumps allow up to three (3) 

weeks of immersion in 30 feet of wastewater. Smith & Loveless’ design moves the grommet away from the top of the 

motor where the heat rises, allowing a fan to continuously cool the motor during operation. Additionally, I-SERIES 

employs a special motor conduit box located on the side, eliminating expensive terminal boards typically located in 

submersibles. 

I-SERIES is the latest innovation in the venerable Smith & Loveless Pump line, which is renown for long life-cycles, 

ease of maintenance, high pump efficiencies, fewer required parts and minimal maintenance procedures. Operators 

can easily perform service like changing the mechanical seal themselves. (The Seal is also known for its impressive 

durability and low replacement cost). 

Not only are I-SERIES Pumps manufactured in the U.S., but so are its parts—this is unlike many foreign submersibles, 

which may have lead times of many weeks or even months. Like other S&L Pumps, flow and head increases for I- 

SERIES pumps can be easily accomplished with a mere impeller change. 

Specifiers faced with concerns about flood plains and/or mechanical seal or valve failures, should consider pumps 

engineered specifically for the task. Weigh the benefits gained with Smith & Loveless I-SERIES Immersible Pumps 

verses the drawbacks of incorporating submersibles in dry-pit applications. Not only do I-SERIES Immersible 

Pumps present superior life-cycle benefits, but they offer the base protection required in rare flood events. Customers 

can count on the experience and excellence gained by Smith & Loveless in tens of thousands of pump installations 

and nearly 60 years of engineering and manufacturing. (For more on the operation of I-SERIES Pumps, request 

bulletins 630 & 631).

recommends the shutdown option 

because at some point, usually 

within 24 to 48 hours, the pump 

station will need to be dewatered. 

By using the pump shutdown 

option, it allows the operator to 

evaluate whether the cause is 

catastrophic, such as a collapsed 

suction or discharge pipe, or check

Flooding Immerses Pump Motors 

While the Pumps are immersed in the dry-pit, I-SERIES TM Immersible Pump special end bell seals prevent 

leakage into the motors for up to 3 weeks up to 30’ of water, protecting the motors from major damage. 

Note: Many engineers will specify suction valving, which manually allows field technicians to use the 

I-SERIES TM pump to dewater the dry-pit. This saves manhours and additional onsite equipment costs. In 

addition, the industry trend is progressing toward “pump around vaults and connections,” which the 

I-SERIES TM Pump supports. Consult Smith & Loveless or its local representative for additional assistance.

Flooded Suction Pumps 

Increasing Flooded Suction 

Pump Station Capacity 

One of the strongest After Market Retrofit areas is upgrading the capacity of an underground pump station 

that also includes new piping layouts. If precise pump station dimensions can be given to Smith & Loveless’ 

After Market Division, they can help you upgrade not only Smith & Loveless pump stations, but also other 

manufacturer’s pump stations. By replacing only the pumps and piping, this can be a major savings to a 

city or municipality. 

You can now retrofit dry-pit submersibles with the I-SERIES Immersible Pump. Why use a pump 

designed for 100% submersion and place it in a 99% dry location? Now you don’t have to – specify the S&L 

I-SERIES Immersible Pump instead. The I-SERIES Immersible Pump handles flood concerns, 

reduces maintenance and comes standard with NEMA rated Premium Efficiency motors. 

Below you will see a few sample pump station layouts. The next time you need to upgrade, just call Smith 

& Loveless’ local Representative or the After Market Division. They will find a retrofit possibility for you. 

S&L Non-Clog

Replacing Volute Gaskets 

Note how many volute gaskets you remove when taking 

apart your rotating assembly. You will need to reinstall the 

same number and thickness to prevent rubbing during pump 

operation. Before turning your pump back to full operation, 

bump the motor to see if you hear any rubbing and to check 

for correct motor rotation. If there is rubbing, you will need 

to add more volute gaskets. If the rotation is incorrect, rewire 

it for correct rotation.

Humidistat is 

crucial for 

controlling the 

humidity in your 

underground pump 

station. You easily 

4L215 

set the level of 

desired humidity 

with the convenient dial switch and 

the 4L215 Humidistat will operate the 

dehumidifier. Depending upon the 

reading of the pump station’s 

humidity level in relation to the 

humidity setting you turn the dial, the 

humidistat will control the humidity 

level in your pump station. It handles 

relative humidity 0 to 70%. 

Includes: (1) humidistat.

Sonic Start Priming System 

— eliminates electrodes & electrode cleaning 

The Sonic Start Priming System is stateof-the-art 

prime sensing technology. Using 

frequency differential, the Sonic Start 

Prime Sensing System dramatically changes 

the way Smith & Loveless’ Vacuum Primed 

Pumps sense prime. Even with grease 

buildup on the Sonic Start probe, it still 

continues to accurately monitor the frequency 

and detect frequency changes. Additionally, 

the Sonic Start does not require routine 

cleaning like the electrodes. 

For Smith & Loveless’ state-of-the-art prime 

sensing system, order Sonic Start Kit 

H87A391A or H87A391B seen below. All of 

the kits and individual components on these 

two pages represent the latest in Sonic 

Start Priming System technology. We 

believe so strongly in the Sonic Start Priming 

System Retrofit Kit that it comes with a 60-Day

Is Your Pump Really Pumping? 

The Pump Flow Sensor is a cost effective way to keep you advised. 

This Kit Includes Everything For A 2-Pump Station 

H87A376 

No matter what angle your check valve 

is, the Smith & Loveless Pump Flow 

Sensor bolts on and adjusts to that 

angle. It senses even the smallest check 

valve arm deflections, preventing many 

false pump failure alarms. 

Many pump stations don’t have a sensor 

installed to verify whether the pump is actually 

pumping when it is called to pump. The Smith & 

Loveless Pump Flow Sensor alerts the 

operator if the pump is not pumping. This 

serves as a early warning signal, in advance of 

the pump running totally dry. The mounting 

bracket was designed to mount on any 

manufacturer’s check valve arm. 

The Smith & Loveless Pump Flow Sensor 

detects even the smallest check valve arm 

deflections. If your pump is called to pump and 

the check valve doesn’t open, it sends a signal 

back to the control panel of pump failure. 

Because it can actually sense the smallest 

flows, it prevents many false pump failure 

alarms other types of sensors send out 

because they can’t accurately sense the check 

valve deflection on low flows. 

S&L PUMP FLOW SENSOR RETROFIT KIT 

(Replaces whisker switch) 


H87A376 S&L Pump Flow Sensor Retrofit Kit 

for Relay Logic 

For those who already have a pump flow sensor 

installed, low flows can really be a problem. If 

you have a low flow pump that creates problems 

for your SCADA System, consider the Smith & 

Loveless Pump Sensor Retrofit Kit. It senses 

even the lowest flows. With many check valve 

whisker type limit switches, check valve 

deflection on low flows of 80 GPM or less 

present problems — especially with 4” piping – 

because the check valve movement is very 

minimal. The new Smith & Loveless Pump 

Sensor detects even the slightest deflection in 

the check valve. 

Includes: (1) step-by-step 3-D illustrated Installation 

Instructions, (1) Right-Hand S&L Pump Flow Sensor 

Assembly, (1) Left-Hand S&L Pump Flow Sensor Assembly, 

(2) 8’ Cable Assembly for Relay Logic Control Panels, (2) 

Strain Relief, (2) Lock Nuts, (2) O-Rings, (1) tester for Initial 

Leveling of the S&L Pump Flow Sensor, (8) Cable Ties.

Open 

Season 

With the summer 

heat, it is important to 

make sure the 

louvers are open. 

Failure to do so can 

cause excessive 

heat buildup inside the station. This triggers 

your ventilation blower to operate more 

frequently to lower the temperature inside the 

station, thus shortening the life of your 

ventilation blower. Additionally, excess heat 

causes premature motor life and frequently 

leads to nuisance tripping of the overload coils. 

So check to make sure your louvers are open 

today.
