Submersible pumps
Submersible pumps sit below the liquid level and push it up and out. They are used for boreholes and wells, sumps, drainage, sewage and wastewater handling, and large-volume water transfer.
Typical types
- 01Borehole (deep well) submersible pumps
- 02Sewage and wastewater submersible pumps
- 03Dewatering and drainage pumps
- 04Axial-flow and mixed-flow submersible pumps

Common questions
What do I need to know to choose a submersible pump?
The flow you need, the total head (lift plus pipe friction), the liquid and any solids in it, the borehole or sump size, and your power supply. If you are replacing a pump, send its nameplate.
What is the difference between a borehole pump and a sewage pump?
Borehole pumps are slim multistage pumps for clean water in narrow bores. Sewage pumps have wide passages and impellers designed to pass solids, and are made for sumps and wastewater.
