Pump types
An electric pump is a pump powered by an electric motor – and the preferred solution in areas with power supply. It comes in many variants and sizes, depending on whether it is used for clean water, wastewater, bypass pumping or drainage.
Electric pumps are often used for stationary installations or as part of a mobile pumping solution. They are characterized by low noise levels, zero emissions and the possibility of continuous operation without fuel supply.
The pump’s electric motor converts electrical energy into mechanical movement that drives the pump’s impeller. This creates a pressure that sucks in the liquid and moves it through the pump system.
Depending on the type, an electric pump can be self-priming or submersible. Many models are also available with automatic level control that starts and stops the pump as needed.
Climate-friendly and emission-free operation
Quiet, making it ideal for urban and indoor use
Reliable and energy efficient
Low maintenance requirements compared to internal combustion engines
Connects to controllers and alarms for intelligent monitoring
Bypass pumping in urban areas and wastewater work
Drainage of construction sites and basements with access to electricity
Pumping stations in the supply network
Industrial process water and tank emptying
Temporary installations for scheduled maintenance
Electric pumps come in many designs and materials:
Materials: Plastic, stainless steel, cast iron – depending on the nature of the medium
Variants:
Submersible pumps for direct submersion
Self-priming models for quick start-up
Grinder pumps for dirty water and sludge
Fixed and mobile versions
ATEX-approved models for hazardous areas
