Tsurumi UZ series of cast iron sewage pumps, feature a wide volute and a vortex impeller. These pumps have 4 pole motors to give improved longevity and wear resistance. The 11kW versions feature star-delta starting. They give solids handling up to 100mm and free passage of fibrous material, for efficient, reliable operation in pumping stations, sewage works and effluent processing. They are available free-standing or for fixed installations when supplied with the guide rail (auto-coupling) kit. The latter includes a pedestal, guide hook, top bracket and lifting chain, but not rails.

Available in three-phase only. The 403 stainless steel shaft is fitted with an ultra hardwearing double mechanical seal (inboard: silicon carbide – silicon carbide), in an oil chamber. Supplied with 10 meters of heavy duty rubber power cable.

When a Tsurumi sewage pump is being selected as a replacement for an existing Flygt pump installation, a guide hook adapter is available as an optional extra. This is suitable for use with all 3” and 4” sewage pumps and permits retro-fitting a Tsurumi to existing Flygt guide rail installations.
