Automatic wastewater removal in domestic and residential environments is efficiently handled by the DAB-FEKA600A submersible drainage pump. Equipped with an integrated float switch, this unit automatically responds to changing water levels in pits, tanks and flooded areas. Suitable for fixed or portable installations, it is designed for the transfer of grey water, light wastewater and rainwater where dependable drainage performance is required.
Performance is supplied by a 0.55 kW single-phase motor operating on a 240v supply with a rated current of 3.1 Amps. The pump produces a maximum flow rate of 265 L/Min and reaches a maximum head of 7.45 m, providing effective lifting capacity for residential drainage systems. Its continuous-duty asynchronous motor maintains stable hydraulic output during extended operating periods when fully submerged.
The hydraulic system utilizes a technopolymer vortex impeller engineered for wastewater containing suspended solids and debris. A free passage of up to 25 mm allows particles to move through the pump without restricting performance, allowing suspended solids to pass through the pump while maintaining reliable hydraulic performance. This design makes the pump particularly suitable for rainwater removal and light wastewater transfer where reliable flow is essential.
Construction incorporates a technopolymer pump body and suction grille paired with a hermetically sealed stainless steel motor casing. The rotor shaft is manufactured from AISI 431 stainless steel, while a triple ring seal operating within an oil bath protects critical motor components from liquid ingress. Integrated thermal protection and an IP68 enclosure rating provide additional reliability for submerged domestic drainage applications.
