Compact Two Stage Pump
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The Compact Two-Stage Pump is the piece that makes a portable decon shower practical. Instead of hauling gray water off site, you pump it out of the shower basin through two filters, a 50 micron first stage and a 5 micron second stage, so the filtered water can go into the sanitary sewer. It moves 6 GPM, runs on 115 V at just 2.1 amps, and has GFI protection built in. At 22 lb in a 20 x 7.5 x 15 in enclosed aluminum case, it is small enough to carry in alongside the 9106 Compact Shower, and it works with the 9105 Portable Shower too. Setup is simple: male garden hose connections on the intake and outlet, no priming needed, and the outlet can push water up to 10 ft through a standard hose. Changing a cartridge means pressing the red button to release pressure, removing the canister and swapping the 10 in cartridge. Keep the 100 micron sock filter in the shower drain so the cartridges last longer.”
Two-stage filtration for decon shower gray water
The Aerospace America Compact Two-Stage Pump (model 9116) pumps gray water out of a decontamination shower basin and filters it in two stages, 50 micron and then 5 micron, so it can be released to the sanitary sewer. It is built for use with the Aerospace 9106 Compact Shower and the 9105 Portable Shower.
The pump, filter housings and GFI-protected power connection are enclosed in a high-strength aluminum case that weighs 22 lb. It ships fully assembled with filters installed.

Questions
Aerospace Compact Two-Stage Pump: common questions
Does the pump need to be primed?
No. Aerospace says the 9116 does not need priming before starting. Connect the source water from the shower basin to the intake and switch it on.
Which showers does it work with?
Aerospace recommends it for use with the 9106 Compact Shower and the 9105 Portable Shower, with the 100 micron sock filter installed in the shower drain.
Can the pump get wet?
The pump is not submersible. Keep the motor dry, use it only on a properly grounded circuit, and use it to filter water only, never flammable or explosive liquids.
How do I change a filter cartridge?
Press the red button to release pressure, remove the plastic canister and replace the cartridge. Check that the o-ring is seated before reassembling. Start with the 50 micron cartridge (9115-01), then the 5 micron (9115-02) if flow is still low.
