PRESSURE SEWER SYSTEMS

DrainAce® Pressure Sewer Systems


The DrainAce Pressure Sewer Systems are a compact and alternative pump station solution for sewer applications, than conventional gravity sewer systems. Designed for the places where deep trenching is impractical, expensive, or simply impossible.

 

Instead of large pipes buried 3 metres deep, pressure sewer uses a small grinder pump at each property to push wastewater through a 40–100mm HDPE pipe network - at just 600mm depth - following the natural contours of the land.

FEATURES

APPLICATIONS

The DrainAce Compact is commonly found in restaurants, basements of high-rise buildings, boardrooms, laboratories, doctor or dental surgeries, construction sites and portable buildings. Units are also available for greasy waste discharge from grease arrestors. 

APPLICATIONS


Global Water’s DrainAce Pressure Sewer Pump Stations are designed for versatility, making them ideal for a wide range of wastewater applications, particularly where challenging site conditions make conventional sewer infrastructure difficult or costly to install.

They are well suited to sites with:

  • Rock, sandy soil, or high groundwater
  • Flat or undulating terrain
  • Coastal and island communities
  • Low-density or scattered lot developments
  • Heritage or built-up areas where excavation is restricted

PRODUCT INFORMATION

 
Every decision in the DrainAce PS Series - materials, chamber sizing, pump configuration, and control architecture - is made around one question:
What does this look like after 25 years in the ground? Our pressure sewer systems are engineered to last.

Both models deliver identical output:
  • 50 L/min max flow
  • 50m max head

DrainAce is built around:

Material choice that lasts - 316 stainless steel on the Premium variant for aggressive soils and coastal environments; cast iron on the Standard variant for lower-risk conditions.
Field serviceability - Modular design means component-level repairs can be completed on-site, not depot returns across a large network.
No proprietary traps - Industry-standard components support practical maintenance, easier parts sourcing, and reduced reliance on a single supplier ecosystem.
Compliance from day one - AS/NZS 1546.1 certified and Health Approved, so procurement conversations start on solid ground.
Direct manufacturer support - No middlemen, no offshore escalation; the team that built it supports it.

Australian designed and manufactured
DrainAce is engineered and assembled in Australia - specified for Australian soils, climates, and regulatory requirements. Parts are held locally. All systems are available in both Australia and New Zealand.
 
Certified and approved
  • Certified to AS/NZS 1546.1
  • SA and NSW Health Approved
Modular, field-serviceable design
Components can be accessed and replaced on-site - no full unit pull, no depot return. For large networks, that means lower labour costs and faster response times.
 
Proven experience
Our team understands the operational reality of council-managed pressure sewer networks - from staged rollouts and contractor support through to long-term asset management and emergency response.
