What are Submersible Water Pumps used for ?

Posted by Hyundai Power Products on 6th Nov 2024

A submersible pump is the best solution for draining 'undesirable' water from cellars, crawl spaces, sump wells, ad other areas that can flood. Submersible pumps are designed to be located underwater. There are two types available: those suitable for clean water and those configured to handle dirty water.

About Submersible Pumps  

Submersible pumps are the most popular style of pumps used in homes and gardens. They are an efficient and effective way of pumping water. Submersible Pumps must be submerged in water. They are regularly referred to as ‘sump pumps’ because they are usually placed inside a sump or chamber.

 

 

Uses of Submersible Water Pumps

Drainage:

  • Flood Management: Submersible pumps are crucial in removing floodwater from basements, cellars, crawlspaces, sump wells, garages, and other areas prone to water accumulation. Their ability to operate underwater makes them ideal for such emergency situations.

 

  • Draining Swimming Pools and Ponds: Regular maintenance of swimming pools and ponds requires efficient water removal to clean and refill these bodies of water. Submersible pumps ensure quick and thorough drainage

Irrigation:

  • Agriculture: Farmers can use submersible pumps to irrigate fields by drawing water from underground sources, rivers, or lakes, ensuring crops receive adequate water supply.

  • Gardening: Home gardeners can use water pumps to maintain their lawns and gardens, emptying soakaways to manage the flow of water across a property.

Wastewater Management:

  • Trash and Dirty Water : Submersible pumps with clean and dirty water pumping capabilities are designed to handle wastewater with particle matters.

Industrial Applications:

  • Construction Sites: Submersible pumps can be used to dewater construction sites, keeping the area dry and safe for workers.

What is the difference between clean water pumps and dirty?

Hyundai Clean Water Pumps:

Purpose: These pumps are designed to move water that is free of debris, sand, mud, or large particles. Clean water typically includes rainwater, tap water, or other sources of fresh water without contamination.

Use Cases: Commonly used for irrigation, draining swimming pools, water transfer in homes, or garden sprinklers.

Design: Clean water pumps have smaller intake filters, meaning they can only handle small particles (usually less than 5-10 mm).

Hyundai Dirty Water Pumps:

Purpose: These pumps are built to handle water that contains solid debris, mud, dirt and particles. They are robust enough to manage thicker, contaminated water.

Use Cases: Ideal for draining muddy water from construction sites, flood areas, or ponds and dealing with wastewater.

Design: Dirty water pumps have larger intakes and impellers, allowing them to handle larger particles (typically up to 30-35 mm or more, depending on the model)

  • For heavy-duty use or larger jobs (e.g., flooding, large pools), the HYSP1100CD is the most powerful option.

  • For mid-range applications (gardens, medium basements), the HYSP550CD strikes a good balance between power and portability.

  • For smaller or lighter tasks, especially involving clean water, the HYSP250CW or HYSP250C will be the most appropriate.
