Pentair XRW. Built for what's next.

still pumping like it's 1975?

Many wastewater pumps still in use today were designed half a century ago. Those older pumps are no longer fit for today’s wastewater challenges. The innovative Xcentric Impeller inside the XRW Series is engineered to move materials—including plastics and solids—without shredding them, delivering high-efficiency performance for operations that pass waste through the sewer system.

5. Passing vs. chopping solids

Some municipalities opt to pass whole solids in wastewater systems rather than chopping or grinding them due to simpler operations, compatibility with existing infrastructure, and alignment with environmental and regulatory standards. This approach can reduce maintenance, avoid potential microplastic concerns, and meet various guidelines. The best method depends on each system’s specific needs.
