New mini-pumps for tough water transfer
operations
The new Wyko range of Lowara stainless steel pumps provide an easy solution to all types of drainage and water transfer problems, from water displays to removing floodwater containing suspended solids
A barrel type float chamber allows optimum operation with a smaller sump than alternative models while innovative impeller designs allow them to pump fluids up to a height of 11m With today's unpredictable weather patterns it has become more common to find storage areas and boiler rooms subjected to flooding with, correspondingly more time and money wasted on extended clean up operations

Supplying custom designed seals fast!
When Triumph Motorcycles required a new seal within a three month lead time they turned to Pioneer Weston International, a division of Eriks UK, to develop and supply the seal
This is one of many reasons why Wyko now hold extensive stocks of the Lowara Tube Float Series submersible pumps, including the Doc and Domo model ranges.
The tube float design removes more water and consequently speeds up transfer operations by requiring half the sump width of other designs (only 200mm).
Each pump in the range also features a stainless steel construction and robust seal design, providing extended operational life for a longer operational life from a more compact unit.
The Doc series is available in three different variants, the smallest of which is only 245mm in height, making it both easy to handle and convenient to store.
The pumps are fitted with a thermal overload protection circuit and 10m of cord and can transfer liquids with temperatures up to 40C when partially submerged.
With models offering maximum flow levels of 230 l/m, headed up to 11m, the series offers the most convenient solution to fluid transfer whether being used in routine or emergency pumping operations.
The Doc pumps also feature an innovative impeller counterblade system that keeps solid particles away from the seal lips, ensuring a longer operating life even in tough applications.
This design allows the units to process fluids with suspended solids of up to 10mm making them ideal for use in emergency flood and drainage operations where water may contain dirt and debris.
For more demanding applications such as cellar or sceptic tank drainage, Wyko offer the Domo range which feature a watertight electric motor housing protected by a multiple seal system with oil chamber.
The units can process fluid with suspended solids of up to 35mm and their stainless steel Vortex impellers guarantee an increased flow capability of 235 l/m along with head capabilities of up to 9m. Request a free brochure from Eriks UK ...
