Spec Sheet
290 Series
Features
The High Head Waste-Mate series of submersible pumps is designed for use in
residential or light commercial dewatering and wastewater applications and can
be used to transfer groundwater and effluent or raw sewage. The innovative
vortex impeller design reduces the risk of clogging and allows each pump to
pass 2" (50 mm) spherical solids. These durable cast iron pumps include a
powder coated epoxy finish to prevent corrosion and are designed to provide
great heat dissipation from the motor, ensuring a long service life. As with every
Zoeller
®
pump, each one is 100% pressure-tested, submerged and run to
ensure quality and reliability for years of trouble-free performance!
Automatic pumps include a float-operated, 2-pole mechanical switch, a
stainless steel float guard and switch arm, and a solid, buoyant polystyrene
float.
For nonautomatic pumps, variable level control systems and containers of
various sizes are available for longer cycles.
Double seal models are available to improve bearing lubrication and prevent
leaks and damage to seals or bearings during dry run conditions.
All models are hermetically sealed to be watertight, dust-tight, and completely
submersible.
Reserve Powered Design: For unusual conditions, a reserve safety factor is
engineered into the design of every pump.
