Brochure
Backed by the dependability and longevity of the Barnes reputation in
submersible pumping, the PGPT Turbine Grinder Pump is the newest extension
of the PRO Grind Series. The PGPT has market leading head output combined
with superior cutting technology providing the best possible solution for the most
challenging commercial, residential, and industrial wastewater environments.
The PGPT operates at only 12.5 max amps using a 1 horsepower oil-lled motor,
but produces the cutting power of over 400,000 slices per minute. The lower
amp draw allows the unit to work on a standard 15 amp protected line. This
eliminates the need to upgrade the electrical system or control panel.
The hydraulic design of the PGPT features
the high head of the turbine style impeller
along with our Exclusive Slicerator™
grinding system, making it a superior
option over the progressing cavity and
centrifugal style pumps. For added
longevity, an abrasion resistant coating
is applied to the volute and stainless
impeller, giving it an added layer of
protection against nely chopped solids
travelling through the passageways.

The staggered slicing action of the grinder radial
cutter dramatically reduces the torque
requirement of the motor, cuts with less
horsepower, and increases the unit’s
efciency. This helps prevent clogging
with particularly troublesome objects
such as plastic, rubber, sanitary napkins,
disposable diapers and cloth items.
