Specifically engineered for demanding drainage tasks, this high-capacity Sumpmate is suited for large-volume stormwater removal and basement recovery. It provides a solution for transferring grey water containing suspended soft solids in residential and light commercial pits.
Hydraulic performance reaches a maximum flow of approx. 216.7 L/Min with a maximum head of up to 8 m. It operates via a 0.75 kW motor on standard 230v power, providing the necessary lift for high-volume drainage and stormwater basins.
Featuring an open hydraulic design, the pump manages soft solid particles up to 35mm in diameter without loss of efficiency. The automatic float switch automatically responds to changing water levels, ensuring hands-free pumping operation in deep sump installations.
Engineered for submerged service, the pump utilizes robust polymer materials to form a corrosion-resistant body. The assembly is fully submersible to a depth of 7 metres and includes built-in thermal safety switches for continuous service.
