Grundfos Unilift AP Submersible Wastewater Pumps for Drainage, Greywater, Dewatering, and Light Sewage Applications
Grundfos Unilift AP Submersible Wastewater Pumps are stainless steel drainage and wastewater pumps designed for dirty water, greywater, and light wastewater applications. The Unilift AP range is commonly used for dewatering, sump drainage, tank emptying, commercial drainage, and wastewater transfer where the pumped liquid may contain suspended solids or debris.
Compared with smaller drainage pumps intended mainly for clean or lightly contaminated water, the Unilift AP range is designed for more demanding applications. Depending on the selected model, these pumps can handle larger free-passage requirements, making them suitable for water containing fibers, particles, and other solids within the pump’s operating limits.
The Unilift AP family includes multiple pump configurations for different drainage and wastewater needs, including models with different solids-handling capabilities and discharge arrangements. Automatic versions with float switches are available for applications where the pump needs to start and stop according to changing water levels, while manual configurations can be used for controlled drainage and transfer.
With corrosion-resistant stainless steel construction, compact submersible design, and broad application flexibility, Grundfos Unilift AP pumps are a practical solution for residential, commercial, and light industrial systems requiring dependable wastewater removal and dirty water transfer.
