EBARA Launches Model DKE High-Efficiency Anti-Clog Submersible Wastewater Pump
1. Background and Objectives

Submersible wastewater pumps are essential in sewage treatment plants and are deployed in the basements of buildings, condominiums, and factories. Wastewater often contains various types of foreign matter, so clogging inside the pump can cause operational stoppages leading to costly maintenance, posing a significant challenge for facility managers. The model DKE combines an anti-clog design with advanced foreign matter passage capability, reducing maintenance requirements and improving operating efficiency.

2. Product Overview

The Pump key features are anti-clog capability and high-efficiency operation. A newly developed impeller with an anti-clog design minimizes clogging inside the pump, reducing maintenance costs associated with disassembly and inspection. In addition, the use of IE3 motors enables up to 15% reduction in power consumption compared to conventional models, helping reduce running costs.
