The Best Submersible Pumps in Australia?

What are Submersible Pumps?

These pumps are pumps that can be submerged in water. That is because the motor is hermetically sealed inside the casing. These pumps are considered to be the most efficient pumps for wells or dewatering because of their design and dynamic. Jet pumps are often used for similar applications, but they pull water. Submersible pumps push water mechanically, which is documented to be the more efficient way to move fluids. Because the pump is hermetically sealed, the pump is protected from a corrosive process called cavitation.

Applications for Submersible Pumps

For many of us, submersible pumps are the pumps we used around the house to dewater various rooms or basements after a storm. You may also have a submersible pump if you have a water well in your yard. However, they are used for much more than household applications. These pumps are used for firefighting, mining, groundwater pumping, irrigation systems, oil wells, sewerage pumping, offshore drilling, slurry pumping and numerous other applications.

How Did We Choose Our Manufacturers for Submersible Pumps?

We choose our manufacturers only if they have worldwide reputations for high quality, high efficiency and long shelf life with minimal repairs. Tsurumi is based out of Japan, have been in business since 1924 and are one of the most prolific manufacturers of high quality submersible pumps in the world. They make submersible pumps for four specialties: corrosion resistant, wastewater/sewerage, dewatering and sand/slurry. Grundfos is the largest pump manufacturer in the world. They manufacture more than 12 million pumps every year. Besides submersible pump, they make centrifugal pumps, circulator motors and electric motors. Not only do they make their own motors, they make motors for many other manufacturers. Lowara produces a large variety of pumps. Their mission is to provide a high production to cost ratio for their customers. They use AISI 316 and AISI 304 stainless steel for their pumps. This is optimal for sanitary water.
