Submersible Waste Water Pumps
In todays market, there is a complete range of Submersible Centrifugal Pumps to cover almost every application, from simple dewatering to the abrasive mine tailing slurries.
Waste & drainage water removal consumes the majority of this market, with impellers designed to cater for medium to large volumes that can process 75mm spherical solids without choking.
Whilst the flows & heads available from submersible pumps vary considerably, the majority of Waste or Dirty Water pumps are designed for Low heads.
They typically reside in putrid environments that WHS acts prohibit entry to so making them survive is paramount.
