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 – 15,600 L/h

This is the highest stated water flow under low-resistance conditions.

Maximum Head Height – 9.5m

This is 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 DV550AF is intended for intermittent drainage applications and should not be operated continuously.

• Ensure the pump is correctly submerged during operation.

• Do not attempt to pump solids larger than 29mm.

• Keep the pump inlet clear of oversized debris and obstructions.

• Use compatible discharge piping and fittings.

• Ensure all electrical connections are correctly installed and protected.

• Regularly inspect and clean the pump to maintain efficient performance.

• Confirm compatibility before pumping sewage containing fibrous materials, large solids or other unsuitable debris.

Important: Although the DV550AF can handle suspended solids up to 29mm, this does not mean it is suitable for every type of sewage or septic application. Always check that the liquid and waste materials being pumped are compatible with the pump.
