DV250F Submersible Drainage Pump
Reliable Wastewater Drainage for Homes, Businesses and Industrial Applications
Need a practical solution for removing unwanted wastewater? The DV250F Submersible Drainage Pump is designed to make draining dirty water and wastewater easier, whether you're dealing with a residential drainage pit, construction site or commercial wastewater system.
Powered by a 0.25kW motor, this compact submersible pump delivers a maximum flow rate of 9,000 litres per hour (150 L/min) and a maximum head height of 7.5 metres.
What makes the DV250F particularly useful is its ability to handle suspended solids up to 20mm, allowing it to move dirty water containing small debris that may cause blockages in ordinary clean-water pumps.
With a copper-wound motor, stainless steel welded shaft and built-in thermal protection, the DV250F is designed for reliable performance in suitable intermittent drainage applications.

Understanding Flow Rate & Head Height
When choosing a drainage pump, it's important to understand how flow rate and head height affect performance.
-
Maximum Flow Rate (9,000 L/h): The highest stated flow rate under low-resistance conditions.
-
Maximum Head Height (7.5m): The maximum height the pump can lift water, at which the flow rate approaches zero.
As the pumping height increases, the available flow rate generally decreases.
Actual performance will also depend on the pipe diameter, pipe length, bends and fittings used in your installation.
Please Note: The pump will not deliver its maximum flow rate at its maximum head height.
Installation & Important Information
-
Not Suitable for Continuous Use: The DV250F is designed for intermittent drainage applications and should not be operated continuously.
-
Ensure the pump is correctly submerged during operation.
-
Do not exceed the maximum immersion depth of 5 metres.
-
The maximum liquid temperature must not exceed 40°C.
-
Only pump compatible liquids within the specified pH range of 4–10.
-
Do not attempt to pump solids larger than 20mm.
-
Keep the pump inlet clear of oversized debris and obstructions.
-
Ensure all electrical connections are correctly installed and protected.
-
Regularly inspect and clean the pump to maintain efficient performance.
Important: Although this pump can handle suspended solids up to 20mm, it is not intended for unrestricted sewage containing large solids, fibrous materials or other unsuitable debris. Always confirm compatibility with your specific wastewater application.
