Lift stations, or pump stations, are essential components of an effective sewage collection system and wastewater management systems. Their primary function is transporting wastewater from lower to higher elevations, mainly when there is insufficient gravity flow. Most lift stations are designed in a duplex configuration; duplex control panels allow for equal wear on the pumps and the ability to have a backup pump if a motor fails or routine servicing.

In this article, we’ll cover lift station components, operations, and maintenance, and how to understand their role in modern infrastructure.
