It handles fine soft solids up to 1 mm, so it is for water that has already settled, not raw dirty water. For dirty water with larger soft solids, the vortex D15VA or D40VA are the right pumps.

Most commonly it sits in the second chamber of a septic tank and pumps settled effluent out to the disposal field. The float runs it automatically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it automatic?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The built in float starts the pump when water rises to the switch on point and stops it when the level drops. No manual switching and no risk of forgetting it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat can it pump?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClean and grey water carrying fine soft solids up to 1 mm.

The D23AB is for clean and grey water with fine solids to 1 mm, like settled septic effluent. All three are automatic, so choose by how dirty the water is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat should we watch out for at install?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKeep the pump clear of the very bottom so it does not clog on settled silt, and check the float has room to swing. Do not run it dry.
