Product Overview
Manual evacuation of abrasive groundwater from basements and site collection pits is streamlined with this robust dewatering unit. It targets environments where high-head performance is required to lift sediment-laden storm water from deep subsurface areas or flooded footings. The manual operation mode gives site personnel complete control during specialized cleanup tasks where the removal of abrasive contaminants is a priority.
Operational output is defined by a 0.75 kW / 240v asynchronous motor that attains a maximum head of 18 m. Drawing a rated current of 5.6 Amps, the system achieves a substantial maximum flow of 250 L/Min for rapid liquid displacement from collection tanks. The internal motor is engineered to maintain high torque and stable pressure behavior, providing the lifting force necessary for consistent clearance of deep pits or flooded floors.
Liquid transfer utilizes a semi-vortex hydraulic configuration capable of processing soft solids and abrasive particles up to 10 mm x 25 mm. A mechanical agitator is fitted to keep sand and silt in suspension, significantly lowering the risk of mechanical clogs or internal wear during active dewatering. This design is optimized for fluids between 2°C and 35°C, sustaining flow efficiency in abrasive storm water collection sumps.
Construction features a 403-grade stainless steel motor shaft and a hermetically sealed cast iron body for long-term durability in submerged duty. Protection against moisture ingress is maintained by a dual mechanical seal arrangement in an oil bath and an IP68 rating for submergence up to 5 metres. An auto-resetting thermal overload is integrated into the Class F windings to protect the system from accidental overheating failure.
FEATURES
- Integrated mechanical agitator prevents sediment accumulation by keeping abrasive grit and silt in suspension.
- Semi-vortex impeller with urethane coating provides extreme resistance to wear from abrasive site debris.
- Manual operation mode allows for precision dewatering and complete evacuation of collection pits or floors.
- High-torque 0.75 kW motor reaches an 18m head for high-lift site drainage and storm water management.
- Rugged cast iron body and impact-resistant urethane components ensure durability in harsh site conditions.
- Redundant motor safety features include a built-in auto-resetting thermal overload and Class F insulation.
- IP68 enclosure rating supports safe and indefinite submerged deployment at depths reaching 5 metres.
- Dual mechanical seals in an oil bath provide a high-reliability barrier to protect the electrical stator assembly.

What manual groundwater evacuation tasks suit this high-head unit?
Reliable basement groundwater removal is accomplished using the BIA-MAN-GW units.
What flow rate and head performance parameters are generated?
Generating strong flow capacity, the BIA_MAN_GW easily reaches a high head designed for deep sumps.
How do sediment-laden fluids pass through the manual drainage wet end?
Sediment-laden storm water is cleared safely through the internal wet end of the BIA/MAN/GW.
What corrosion-resistant shaft and seal materials are included?
Stainless steel shafts and durable ceramic seals are built to equip the BIA MAN GW.
What submergence depths and power leads support field deployment?
A 7-metre submergence depth alongside neoprene power leads fully support the continuous operation of the BIA MAN GW.
