APPLICATION GUIDE

Light Construction Dewatering

Compare pumps for pits, trenches and light site drainage by water condition, solids and working head. Abrasive sand and slurry require separate assessment.

YARDPUMP compact submersible pump range
Soft-solids passage does not establish resistance to abrasive sand.

Common Questions

Questions to Check Before You Choose

Can a 25 mm dirty-water pump handle sand?

Not from that size rating alone. Soft particles and abrasive sand damage pumps differently. Describe the sediment and concentration for a suitability review.

What site details are useful for a quotation?

Share the water and sediment, required flow, lift, hose length, running time, electrical supply and quantity. Photos or a site drawing can help explain the installation.
