What Sets the Magnum Spill Buster Apart from the Rest?
1 | 2 | 31. It's easy to overlook - and that's a good thing!

If noise, fumes, and a noticeable profile will pose problems because of your site's proximity to pedestrian or vehicle traffic, or to residences and other businesses, you will want to compare the Magnum to your other technology options. The Magnum operates virtually noiselessly- there are no noisy air compressors or external motors.
The product exits the well inside the discharge tubing and runs directly into your tank or barrel via a bung, minimizing fumes. Also, the fact that maintenance on the pump is accomplished by automatically winding the down-well tubing onto the Auto Seeker to raise the pump to the surface- instead of hauling the tubing up by hand and spreading it out on the ground- greatly reduces the smell (and mess).
The compact control panel can be mounted unobtrusively on the side of a building. The Auto Seeker raises the profile of the well head by two feet. It can be easily covered by a small enclosure if desired. Or, it can fit inside a small underground vault (24'x22"x22") to allow traffic to pass right over it. This is the extent of the system's visual "footprint".

2. It's a technician (and project manager)'s dream come true -
we're talking about ease of installation, maintenance, operation, and service.
Installation can take one person as little as twenty minutes because the system is completely modular and, except for connection to your power source, includes all you need to start pumping immediately. You don't need to research and purchase additional equipment such as rate controllers, air compressors and shut-off sensors. The three modules of the system - the control panel, auto seeker, and probe are linked via included cabling that features our exclusive Slimline™ connectors that are keyed to fit their correct receptacle.

Each system also includes a shut-off sensor and cable, discharge tubing, and even a bung for your discharge tank.
Normal maintenance of the Magnum Spill Buster requires approximately ¼ hour of one person's time two to four times per month (depending on your site conditions). The auto seeker raises the probe and pump to the well surface, neatly winding the down-well tubing as it goes. The pump is easily removed from the probe, its filter and screen wiped clean, as well as the probe tube. Then the pump is re-seated in the probe and the auto seeker returns the pump to the product/water interface.

The Magnum's operation is automatic- 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 4 seasons of the year (through a temperature range of -40 to +60 degrees C). It requires minimal supervision- especially useful for remote site locations.

- Once the available product in the well is pumped down to a sheen, the system enters a time delay to allow more product to flow into (recharge) the well. The Magnum will automatically adjust the delay time interval from 10 seconds up to 6 hours, based on the length of the pump cycle. The system circle delay time is a function of the recharge rate.
- Since the Auto Seeker tracks any change in the interface that occurs during the time delay, there is no need to monitor and manually adjust the pump position.
- If the product discharge tank becomes full, the full tank sensor signals the control panel to shut down the pump until the tank is emptied again.
- And because the Magnum will not pump any water, the discharged product is the only waste material to require disposal.

3. The Magnum's energy efficiency is kind to your bottom line throughout the entire life of your project -
In addition to the dollars you save on labor and extraneous equipment over the life of your project, the Magnum also saves money and resources through its energy efficient operation.
The Magnum uses less power than a 60 watt bulb. It times its operation to the recharge rate of the well so that it only pumps when there is accumulated product.
Because no water will be pumped with the NAPL, in many cases the recovered product can be recycled and re-used.
Once the Magnum has finished its work on your site, the affected groundwater can be treated in situ or left to the work of natural attenuation to complete the removal of the final sheen (less than 1 cm.). No other follow-up technology is required.
