Engineering optimal fluid velocity requires advanced internal geometry to process extreme volumes. The Davey DCS150 Domestic Submersible Dewatering Pump utilizes a semi-vortex hydraulic design for displacing suspended solids. Pressure gradient manipulation allows fluid to cleanly bypass choke points for efficient extraction.
Built exclusively for harsh immersion, the outer casing is formed from resilient 304 stainless steel paired with a cast iron base. The double case layout uniquely routes the discharge stream directly past the internal motor shell. This thermal exchange provides superior active cooling for continuous manual operation safely.
To securely maintain bulk transfers, the core pushes a massive maximum flow of approximately 580 L/Min and achieves a 22 m head. Power is supplied by a single-phase 240v architecture outputting 1.5 kW at 13 Amps. Operating manually, waste is forced securely through a 50 mm connection port into external discharge piping.
Internal mechanical integrity is safeguarded by a hard-faced silicon carbide and ceramic shaft seal immersed within a captive oil bath. Supported by a specialized sand slinger lip seal, abrasive grit is repelled from the shaft. An automatic resetting thermal overload provides a critical electrical safety net.
Features- Equipped with a highly durable cast iron open impeller specifically matched for demanding effluent and suspended waste extraction.
- Capable of processing neutral pH sewage or grey water containing up to 10 percent small soft organic solids under 10mm external diameter.
- Includes a dedicated hose tail adapter intentionally provided to facilitate rapid temporary installations using a standard lay-flat hose.
- Features a completely integrated 304 stainless steel suction inlet and external strainer base for superior structural defense against debris.
- Engineered with an exceptionally robust total net weight measuring precisely 26 kg for completely stable permanent or temporary anchoring.
- Supplied with a 10 metre HO7RNF oil-resistant lead with a 3 pin power plug to guarantee electrical delivery in dirty water environments.
