Product Overview

The bottom suction design allows for the unit to pump longer giving you further draw-down capability and more reliably without losing prime.
The ATER-20 pump is not an on-demand pump. It runs when it’s plugged in and does NOT have dry run protection built-in. It is most commonly paired with a Normally Open, Pump Down Float Switch that tells the pump to turn on and run when the float is in the up position. The float switch turns the pump off when the float is in the down position to prevent the pump from dry-running.
20-Series Septic Effluent Pump
Ater Pump 20-Series was specifically designed to be used in septic effluent and cistern pumping where maximum draw down is needed. The 20Series was built using 304 stainless steel and high-wear life thermoplastic ensuring corrosion resistance and longevity. Ater 20Series also has 5 stages for maximum shut-off head pressure of 170ft of head.
Internal diffuser design provides high performance and long life in harsh water conditions. The pump can pass solids up to 1/8 inch with no negative effect on the internal components. The unique hollow-wall design eliminates the need for an induction sleeve as the pump-end is on the bottom and the water passes past the motor on its way to the diffusers, cooling it continuously.
This makes the 20Series the most sought-after unit and highly versatile in application uses:
- Filtered effluent from aerobic septic systems
- Grey water pumping applications
- Filtered effluent service water pumping
- Water reclamation such as rain harvest basin pumping
- Agriculture and livestock water pumping
