Source of Macerator Pump for Trailer mounted Black Tank ?

.......I'm doing property monitoring on a small tract that will be developed into a RV storage facility ! The septic drain line is several inches higher than the 3 inch drain outlet on my 5'ver ! So , I'm trying to find a source for one of those macerator pumps used by gate guard companies , where they bury a small plastic tank in the ground with the macerator pump inside the tank(next to the RV)........and the dump from the trailer goes directly , INTO the buried plastic tank !
.......The level sensor(inside the small buried tank) will turn on the pump where it will pump contents of small , buried tank INTO say a 500 gallon septic tank , usually mounted on a trailer . Any info will be appreciated . , thanks , jf
  • If you have a septic dump close by why do you need a seperate tank? A mascerator pump is perfectly capable of pumping several inches up hill. You connect the pump directly to your dump outlet, connect a 3/4 inch garden hose to it, place the other end in the septic inlet, power the pump up, and open your dump valves. Mascerator pumps can be found at most any large RV parts store, or online either at Ebay or Amazon
