Drainage, sludge and slurry pumps
Electric submersible pumps for construction pits, tunnels, mines, industry and emergency use. We help you find the right pump, whether you want to buy or rent.
Which pump do you need?
The difference is how many and how coarse particles the pump has to handle.
Drainage pumps
Keep the work site dry. Drainage pumps move large volumes of water, often at high head.
- Construction pits, trenches and manholes
- Tunnels and rock caverns
- Flooded basements and floods
- Versions that pump down to a few millimetres
Sludge pumps
For water with a lot of sand, sludge and solids. The pumps have a larger passage and handle more wear.
- Settling ponds and sumps
- Cleaning tanks and pits
- Industrial wash water
- Sludge with soil and gravel
Slurry pumps
For thick, abrasive material with a high solids content. Often fitted with an agitator that keeps the material moving.
- Dredging of harbours and ponds
- Mines and quarries
- Drilling mud and concrete slurry
- Bottom sludge in basins and tanks
How we find the right pump
With this information we can suggest the right pump and size:
| What to pump | Clean water, sandy water, sludge or slurry. Also the temperature and whether the liquid is salty or acidic. |
|---|---|
| Flow | How much water per minute or hour, or the volume to be emptied. |
| Head | Height difference from the pump to the outlet, and how long the hose will be. |
| Particles | Largest stone size and how much sand or sludge the water contains. |
| Power | 230 V or 400 V, and the fuse size on site. |
| Explosion risk | Whether the pump will be used in an area that requires EX-approved equipment. |
| Buy or rent | Will the pump be installed permanently, or do you only need it for a period? |
Materials
- Aluminium and cast iron for normal drainage of water with sand.
- Stainless steel for salt water, acidic water and mildly aggressive liquids.
- Hardened steel and wear rubber for slurry and other abrasive material.
Accessories
- Hoses and couplings
- Level switch for automatic start and stop
- Starter panel and motor protection
- Strainer and stand that keep the pump from digging itself down
