Product Overview
The Ebara Optima MS is a compact stainless steel submersible drainage pump designed for automatic removal of clean water in domestic and light-duty drainage applications. Manufactured using 304 stainless steel and reinforced thermoplastic components, the pump provides excellent corrosion resistance and durability in wet environments.
This model features a semi-open impeller design that efficiently handles clean or lightly contaminated water commonly found in basements, sumps, tanks and drainage pits. The integrated magnetic switch system enables automatic operation at low water levels without the need for a traditional external float switch, making it ideal for installations where space is limited.
Powered by a 0.25 kW single-phase motor, the Optima MS includes built-in thermal overload protection and IP68 protection for safe submersible operation. A carbon/ceramic mechanical seal located in an oil-lubricated chamber protects the motor from water ingress while ensuring reliable long-term performance.
With its compact design, corrosion resistant construction and automatic magnetic level control, the Ebara Optima MS provides an efficient and dependable solution for domestic drainage and water transfer systems.
