DAB.NOVA UP M-AE - submersible sludge pump
The DAB.NOVA UP M-AE submersible sludge pump range includes electronic drainage pumps designed for handling liquids with undrainable residue and solids up to 10 mm in size. These pumps are suitable for use in sump pits and drainage systems, particularly in domestic and light commercial applications. They feature a height-adjustable float switch for automatic or manual operation and a removable filter for maintenance. The pump body and impeller are constructed from technopolymer, while the motor, rotor shaft, and screws are made of stainless steel for durability. These units are ideal for continuous operation and are suited for liquids without fibres.
With flow rates from 1 to 15 m³/h and a maximum head of 10 m, these pumps operate within a liquid temperature range of 0°C to 35°C. They are designed for vertical installation and can be used in both fixed and portable configurations. The IP68 rating ensures full submersion protection, and the insulation class F provides thermal resilience.
How to choose
- Assess the required flow rate (1–15 m³/h) and head (up to 10 m) based on the system’s hydraulic demand.
- Confirm compatibility with the liquid type—these pumps are suitable for liquids without fibres and with solids up to 10 mm.
- Verify the minimum immersion depth (60–70 mm) and maximum depth (7 m) to ensure proper operation in the installation environment.
- Consider the float switch configuration—adjustable float allows for customised pump activation levels in small sumps.
- Check the motor design: asynchronous single-phase motor with built-in thermal protection and capacitor for continuous operation.
