Introducing The Titan-2 Pumping System
May 2012
Introducing The Titan-2 Pumping System - Unique Octagonal Sump Shape
The Titan-2 is a basic pumping system incorporating:
an octagonal sump chamber
class leading pumps
lock & seal lid and frame
high water level alarm
internal pipe-work, one way valves and
quick release shut-off valve for quick release of the pumps for servicing.
The sump can be used with single pumps or twin pumps via a single discharge line. The unique octagonal sump shape ensures structural stability and provides eight large surfaces for inlets into the pump of up to 110mm via an optional wall flange. The sump chamber also features a flared base to prevent flotation. As a fully built system, the Titan-2 includes all internal pipe and pipe fittings ready for 50mm discharge pipe.
Extended Footing Means Easier Installation
A key advantage of this style of chamber over the original Titan is that it has an extended footing around the bottom circumference meaning you no longer need to fit coach bolts to secure it against vertical movement due to potential water pressure. It also has flat sides making it easier to fit pipework through the chamber wall. Its design is intended to work in conjunction with the recessed manhole style lid and can accept various finished into the recessed tray of the lid such as tiles, screed, wooden floor etc.
Less Digging Required
The volume of this chamber is equivalent to the original Titan but it is shorter so there is less digging involved to install the chamber into the ground. Please see the dimensions drawing on the datasheet.
The Titan-2 is ideal for the removal of water from cellars and basements, and the collection and pumping of surface water
“The Titan 2 has been designed by John Newton & Company and produced in the UK for the waterproofing of smaller basement areas. The new improved design will allow for a cleaner and quicker installations for the same price as the original Titan” - Warren Muschialli, MD, John Newton & Company
Key Benefits of Titan-2
• Compatible with Newton NP and CP clean water pumps
• Fully built system includes all internal pipe and pipe fittings ready for 50mm discharge pipe.
• One-way valve for each pump included.
• Quick release coupling for each pump for easy installation and removal for servicing.
• Newton PA50 High Water Level Alarm included.
Waterproofing the London Bridge Underground Link
April 2012
Waterproofing the London Bridge Underground Link – The Shard Project
Newton System 500 used for waterproofing the existing London Bridge Underground Link within the Shard Project
Project Details:
The existing tunnel network connecting London Bridge Underground to “The Shard” needed to be upgraded to house facilities for the Transport for London bus drivers as a part of the overall London Bridge Quarter development. The main contractor Mace, commissioned the services of Newton and Stonehouse Basements to design and install the Newton System 500 internal drained cavity system to upgrade the existing tunnels to a Grade 3 Habitable environment in accordance with BS8102:2009.
Methodology:
Stonehouse Basements design was to install the BBA certified 508 Cavity Drain Membrane to the vaulted areas. The 508 has an integral key for direct/plaster applications and is mechanically fixed with Newton NuSeal Plugs with Newton WaterSeal Rope wrapped around the neck of the plug to form a waterproof seal. The meshed membrane application required strategic mechanical fixing to hold the weight of the applied finish. Once the membrane was installed to the walls, timber battens were applied into the heads of the NuSeal plugs in preparation for receiving plasterboard. Fixing into the head of the NuSeal plugs meant that the membrane system was not compromised as the NuSeal plugs act as a waterproof rawl plug. Newton Basedrain was installed at the wall floor junction within a margin formed in the concrete slab.
Newton 101F slurry was applied to the rebate and also out onto the slab to prevent moisture vapour transgressing out across the slab. As this project was at first floor level any ingression of water was managed into the Newton Basedrain conduit and removed from the internal space to lower level gravity drainage.
Result:
The Type C drained cavity protection option meant no messy preparation works to the existing vaults and that any water ingression could be easily removed without the need for a sump and pump option. As the project was very time sensitive, there was no need for extensive drying out times as required with other Type A tanking alternatives.
In addition, Mace the main contractor could get the benefits of an insured backed guarantee by using a Newton Specialist Basement Contractor for the design and installation.
Benefits:
· The BBA accredited Newton Membrane System was applied with minimal surface preparation without expensive preparation works which would have been required with an applied wet tanking system.
· The client could delegate the whole project to Stonehouse Basements with peace of mind of an insured backed guarantee for the works.
“The expanded range of Newton products allowed us to devise a unique solution to a unique central London situation. The vaulted area is very sensitive with mainline trains running directly above and the main rail concourse below. I could only consider this contract with the security of the proven Newton system behind our long term guarantee” – Graham Stone, Stonehouse Basements
