About Submersible Pumps

Submersible pumps are designed to be fully immersible within a tank or other media storage receptacle.  The motors of submersible pumps are normally sealed in oil-filled cavities that are protected from contact with the transfer media.  Many common types of pumps can be designed by submersible pumps manufacturers to be submersible.  These include, but are not limited to bladder pumps, bilge and ballast pumps, borehole pumps, booster pumps, centrifugal pumps, condensate pumps, dewatering pumps, fountain pumps, grinder pumps, macerator pumps, micro pumps, sampling pumps, trash pumps, utility pumps and well pumps. 


Products & Services Related to Submersible Pumps
Booster Pumps
Booster pumps are used in applications where the normal system pressure is low and needs to be increased.
Condensate Pumps
Condensate pumps are used to collect and transport condensate back into a steam system for reheating and reuse, or to remove unwanted condensate from an HVAC or appliance collection pan.
Diaphragm Pumps
Diaphragm pumps use a diaphragm that moves back and forth to transport liquids from one place to another.
Drum Pumps
Drum pumps are used to transfer materials from a container into a process or other container. They may be electrically, hydraulically, or pneumatically powered depending on the working environment or application.
Industrial Liquid Handling Pumps
Industrial liquid handling pumps are classified in many different ways, and are distinguished by the media pumped and the fluid motive mechanism (dynamic or displacement).
Metering Pumps
Metering pumps are precision pumps, which dispense an exact amount of material. They are used in a variety of chemical dosing and metering applications.
Screw Pumps
Screw pumps are rotary, positive displacement pumps that have one or more screws to transfer fluids or materials along an axis.
