About NS Submersible Pumps:
These pumps are used for sewage, dewatering, and seepage applications. The impellers of these pumps are of the non-clog type, which allows smooth passage of solids and caters to a wide range of applications.
The lightweight of these pumps would imply more efficiency and thus result in faster pumping of contaminated effluents, Sewage water, and Industrial wastewater.
Due to reduced weight, maintenance and handling of the pump would be more user-friendly. This also reduces the load on the foundation owing to lower weight.
