Franklin Electric’s Pioneer Pump Brand Launches Line of Rugged Submersible Dewatering Pumps

Franklin Electric Co., Inc. brand Pioneer Pump is set to broaden its product portfolio with the launch of the Minetuff Series Electric Submersible Pumps. Minetuff is the first electric submersible product from Pioneer Pump, allowing the brand to provide its customers with more dewatering options that deliver proven reliability and performance.
The Minetuff Series includes pumps ranging from 8 to 140 horsepower that can be used in wells as deep as 245 feet.

“For 25 years, Pioneer Pump has been providing our customers with proven surface dewatering pumps,” said Kyle Johnson, Global Product Manager for Franklin Electric’s Large Submersible Pumps. “Now, when deep wells or space limitations require a submersible dewatering solution, we’re excited to say that Pioneer Pump has you covered. Like all Pioneer Pump products, the Minetuff Series performs in demanding dewatering applications and harsh environments – from mines to construction sites – and can move with your crew or stay in place.”

The Minetuff Series utilizes world-class submersible pump and motor engineering technology from Franklin Electric, including a rugged construction with robust materials and adjustable hydraulics. The products are fully wet-tested in-house for quality control and are designed to handle small abrasives like sand, small stones and clay. Each pump is manufactured with a Class H insulation system and thermal overload protection for heavy-duty applications and extended pump life. As part of the Pioneer Pump portfolio, the pumps are fully supported with Franklin Electric resources like FranklinTECH Online and replacement parts kits.

Pioneer Pump showcased the Minetuff Series at the WEFTEC 2024 Expo in New Orleans. “This is an exciting launch for us, one that has been several years in the making, and we can’t wait to share it with our customers,” said Johnson.
