Multiquip SS 2 In. Trash Pump

Description

De-water flooded basements, utility vaults, and construction footings containing suspended sand. The Multiquip SS 2 In. Trash Pump unit clears abrasive slurry water across harsh jobsites. A 0.5-horsepower electric motor turns an abrasive-resistant vortex impeller. Solids capacity peaks at 1-inch diameter, preventing the passage of large stones.

Cast aluminum forms the motor housing, surrounded by a heavy-duty synthetic rubber pump volute. The vortex impeller uses durable polyurethane rubber to resist erosion from silica sand and fine gravel. Dual mechanical seals feature silicon carbide faces bathed in an internal oil reservoir. Thermal overload cutouts shut down motor power during dry-run conditions. Top-discharge geometry cools the stator housing.

Submersible Trash Hardware Details

Trenching crews clear sandy ditch runoff without wearing out metal pump volutes. The tough rubber casing absorbs impacts when lowered against rough concrete manholes.

• Electric 0.5-horsepower motor operates on standard single-phase 115-volt utility power
• Polyurethane vortex impeller passes suspended solids up to 1-inch diameter
• Silicon carbide mechanical seals run inside an oil chamber for dry-run protection
• Top-discharge water cooling keeps motor windings safe during low water levels
• Rugged synthetic rubber volute casing absorbs severe impact shocks inside manholes
• Heavy 20-foot rubber power cord includes strain relief to prevent electrical shorts
• Standard 2-inch discharge fitting connects straight to commercial lay-flat hose

Submersible Dyno Bench Telemetry

Dynamometer bench testing demonstrates the motor draws 5.8 Amps across 115-volt power under a 20-foot dynamic discharge head. Pump output stabilizes at 58 GPM through 50 feet of 2-inch lay-flat hose. Stator temperature reaches 140°F during extended low-water operation. Acoustic sensors record 56 dBA submerged and 63 dBA in open air.

Worksite Performance Practical Notes

You lower this pump down utility trenches using a steel cable connected to the handle. The slim profile fits down tight 8-inch inspection sleeves. Do not lift or suspend this pump by the rubber electrical cable. Pulling the power cord pulls internal lead wires from terminals and causes shock hazards.

• Inspect the bottom suction strainer for packed mud before lowering into water
• Check oil bath clarity in the mechanical seal chamber once every 6 months
• Wash the exterior pump housing with clean water after pumping acidic runoff

Commercial Warranty Manifest Terms
