PVC Submersible Drainage Pumps

Detailed Information on PVC Submersible Drainage Pumps

PVC submersible drainage pumps are among the most preferred pump types for drainage and surface water discharge applications, thanks to their lightweight body structure and high corrosion resistance. They are designed for the fast and safe discharge of clean or slightly dirty water. With their portable design and low energy consumption, they offer high efficiency in both residential and commercial use.

Key Advantages

• • Easily portable thanks to the lightweight PVC body
• • High resistance to corrosion
• • Silent operation
• • Energy-efficient motor structure
• • Low-level drainage capability
• • Options with automatic float control

Operating Principle

The pump operates by being completely submerged in water. The motor is protected by natural cooling underwater, and the impeller provides energy to the fluid, conveying the water to the discharge line. Thanks to the float control, the pump automatically activates when the water reaches a certain level and shuts down when the level drops.

Material Structure

• • Body: Durable PVC composite
• • Impeller: PPO/Noryl or stainless steel
• • Shaft: AISI 304 stainless steel
• • Motor: Submersible motor with thermal protection
• • Seal: Carbon/Ceramic – double-sealed
• • Base Strainer: Perforated design suitable for fine particle passage

Application Areas

• • Drainage of flooded basements, garages, and parking lots
• • Drainage of rainwater and surface accumulation
• • Emptying of pools, reservoirs, and tanks
• • Circulation systems for decorative ponds and waterfalls
• • Residential water drainage applications
• • Lightly contaminated water transfer

Performance Capacities

PVC drainage pumps are generally manufactured with:
• 2 – 18 m³/h flow rate
• 5 – 15 m head (lift)
• 0.25 – 1.1 kW motor power
• Fine particle tolerance: 5 – 8 mm. They offer a long-lasting and economical solution for light drainage applications.
