N Series Pumps: Proven Solids-Handling Performance for Industrial, Mining, Rental, and Municipal Applications
For more than seventy years, Cornell Pump Company has engineered rugged, efficient, and field-proven pumping solutions. Among its most versatile product lines, the N Series stands out as a workhorse for solids-handling applications across a broad spectrum of markets—including industrial, mining, municipal, and rental sectors.
High-Efficiency Self-Priming Pumps for Municipal Applications
Cornell Pump’s 10STX Series self-priming pumps deliver industry-leading efficiency—operating several percentage points higher than comparable models. For municipal applications, this translates into lower operating costs, reduced energy consumption, and dependable performance under demanding conditions.
Emergency Bypass Pumping for Hurricane and Flood Response
Municipalities face growing challenges as climate change increases the frequency and severity of hurricanes and flooding events. In coastal and inland areas alike, sudden surges in rainfall can overwhelm wastewater and stormwater systems, causing backups, overflows, and environmental damage. Emergency bypass pumping plays a critical role in safeguarding communities when infrastructure is pushed to its limits.
The Value of Redundancy in Municipal Pump Systems
In municipal pumping applications, reliability isn’t just a preference—it’s a necessity. Whether handling potable water, stormwater, or wastewater, municipal pump systems must perform without interruption to protect public health, safeguard infrastructure, and comply with regulatory requirements. That’s where redundancy comes in.
Visit Cornell at the Tri-State Seminar — See Us at the Gierlich-Mitchell Booth
Cornell Pump is excited to exhibit at the 2025 Tri-State Seminar, August 5 and 6 at the South Point Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas! You’ll find us inside the Gierlich-Mitchell booth, where we’ll showcase municipal pumping solutions engineered for reliability, efficiency, and demanding applications.
Cutters vs. Choppers: Choosing the Right Impeller for Modern Wastewater Challenges
As wastewater compositions evolve—with flushable wipes, fibrous materials, and grease-laden solids now common—traditional non-clog pumps are increasingly unable to cope. Municipalities and industrial users face a critical choice: should they specify a cutter or chopper impeller for their toughest pumping applications?
Z-Series
Z-series centrifugal pumps’ robust build and higher efficiencies position the series to offer better results than standard ANSI pumps. Easy access to parts and Cornell quality since 1946 make the Z-Series an easy choice for many industrial and municipal applications.
Cornell History
The story of Cornell starts in 1946 when 5 people working at Pacific Pump Company decided to head out on their own. Having a complete service department, they became familiar with what most of the common pump failures were. Many motor failures came from pressure spikes during operation, overloading capacity and water related failures of the pump end motor bearings. With many parts in stock and facilities to fabricate the rest, Cornell would service any model of pump.
Oil and Gas
Oil & Gas Pumps Cornell pumps have a reputation for being durable and reliable in harsh conditions. Since 1946, our pumps have been designed and manufactured to meet rigorous standards in Portland, OR. Cornell pumps are widely used in the oil and gas industry, hydraulic fracturing, due to their exceptional uptime, dependability, and efficiency. On […]
Municipal
Municipal Pumps Cornell pumps are a reliable choice for municipal applications such as clear water, wastewater, and grey water. Cornell has provided pumps for municipal installations for over 70 years, offering permanent and temporary/emergency solutions. The new cutter pump effectively reduces waste water ragging, leading to excellent uptime and reduced maintenance costs. With a double […]
