The Challenge

A busy food production company were fed up of being plagued with persistent submersible pump failures and the team at Dura Pump were challenged to find a solution.

This food production plant was producing a large volume of waste and suffered from persistent failures with their 5.5kW submersible pumps. They needed a long-term solution to avoid costly repairs and enable production to keep flowing.

The Solution


The Dura Pump solution was to specify 2 new Rotomec RS vortex pumps with a 75mm solid handling capacity. This pump was the perfect solution for the amount of waste being produced, being self-contained with a built-in sealed motor which can pump effectively even when completely submerged in fluid.

The Outcome

Now that the Dura Pump team have solved the issue and put a long term solution in place. The Factory can have peace of mind knowing that their system is highly unlikely to fail. Having the Rotomec Pumps in place the factory can continue producing and if any larger waste comes into the tank the Rotomec Pumps have a 75mm clear passage to allow solid waste to pass through.
