Lift height and run length trade against each other · review
The only macerator in this catalogue that publishes a noise level and explains the trade between lift and distance — 4 m up gives you 30 m across.
The bottom line The most usefully specified pump in the hub for planning a pipe run — and the one that cannot take a toilet.
A compact 250 W macerator with three 40 mm inlets, a 23/28 mm outlet, up to 100 l/min, up to 8.5 m of vertical lift, up to 85 m of horizontal run, an inlet tolerance of 65 °C and a stated 30 to 40 dB.
“4 metres of lift allows up to 30 metres of run.”
Every other macerator here publishes a maximum lift and, sometimes, a maximum run — as though you could have both. You cannot: they trade against each other, and the trade is what decides whether the pipe reaches the stack.
This is the only listing in the catalogue that gives a pair you can design with.
Take a WC. All three inlets are 40 mm. A toilet needs a 100 mm class connection, and this pump does not have one. It is a shower, bath and basin unit.
30 to 40 dB, the only one in this hub. A macerator sits in the room it serves — behind a panel, under a basin — and runs for thirty seconds every time anything drains. It is a fair question and this is the only maker to answer it.
65 °C, the lowest here. Fine for a shower and a basin. Not enough for a washing machine, which two other units in this hub explicitly accept.
A macerator is drainage that depends on electricity. In a power cut, nothing connected to it drains.

No. The three inlets are all 40 mm, and a WC needs a 100 mm class connection. Two macerators in this hub publish an 89 mm or 100 mm inlet; this one does not, and it is sold for basins, baths and showers.
It is the honest version of a performance claim. A pump cannot deliver its maximum lift and its maximum distance at once — every metre up costs you many metres across. Publishing a worked pair is how you design a real pipe run, and this is the only listing here that does it.
