Automatic Pumps for Drainage and Water-Level Control
Submersible Water Pumps with Float Switches
CIMEX submersible water pumps with float switches are compact, portable solutions for automatic drainage and water-level control. Designed to operate directly in the water, they are suitable for homes, construction sites, plumbing and utility work, mines, basements, garages, tanks, drains and other areas where water can accumulate.
Automatic Water-Level Control
The float switch starts and stops the pump as the water level changes, reducing the need for manual supervision. When installed with enough free space to move correctly, it also helps protect the pump from running dry after the water has been removed.
How to Choose a Float-Switch Pump
- Water type: confirm whether the model is intended for clean water, dirty water or water containing suspended solids.
- Flow rate: select sufficient capacity for the area, tank or excavation being drained.
- Total head: account for vertical lift and the length of the discharge hose.
- Solids handling: check the maximum permissible particle size and impeller design.
- Float clearance: ensure the switch can move freely without catching on walls, pipes or cables.
Typical Applications
Float-switch submersible pumps are used for automatic drainage of basements, garages, shafts, tanks, construction excavations and flooded rooms. They are also suitable for maintaining a controlled water level in sumps and other collection points.
Reliable Portable Drainage
A correctly selected CIMEX submersible pump combines easy installation, automatic operation and dependable water removal. Compare the model specifications for flow rate, total head, outlet size, motor power and permissible solids before choosing.
