Submersible pump AWTools AW85019 — 15.8 kg weight, model AW85019

The AWTools AW85019 submersible pump is designed for removal and circulation of water in residential, commercial and light industrial settings. Constructed with a cast iron housing and base finished with a protective powder coat, the unit is fully submersible thanks to its hermetically sealed design. The pump includes a built-in grinding system with a three-blade cutting knife, an automatic float switch for on/off control, a motor thermal overload cut-out and an angle adapter to accept hoses of different diameters. The pump weighs 15.8 kg and is intended for draining, sewage transfer and temporary water transfer where particles up to 30 mm may be present.

Advantages

The cast iron housing and powder finish provide increased durability and corrosion resistance for prolonged use in harsh conditions. The hermetically sealed construction enables continuous submerged operation without water ingress to the motor. The integrated grinding system reduces the risk of clogging by cutting solids up to 30 mm, while the float switch automates operation and reduces manual monitoring. Thermal overload protection helps prevent motor damage from overheating during extended or heavy-duty running. An ergonomic handle and an angle adapter improve portability and connection flexibility.

Suitable for

• Dewatering flooded basements and sumps
• Pumping sewage and waste water containing solids up to 30 mm
• Emptying ponds, pools and hot tubs
• Rainwater removal and temporary irrigation return
• Construction site drainage and temporary water transfer

How to use

Before use, verify that the power supply and discharge fittings match the pump requirements and that the angle adapter is fitted to the chosen hose diameter. Place the pump fully submerged at the lowest practical point in the water to maximise suction; ensure the float switch has sufficient clearance to operate freely. Connect the discharge hose and route it to an appropriate drainage location. Once connected to power, the float switch will automatically start and stop the pump according to water level. Monitor the pump during the first operation to confirm correct function and check for leaks or unusual noises. After use, disconnect power, remove the pump from the water, clean the grinding mechanism and casing of debris and store the unit in a dry place.

Usage recommendations

The pump is suitable for dirty and sewage water with solids up to 30 mm; avoid pumping highly abrasive materials, thick sludge or flammable liquids. Maintain regular inspection of the cutting knife and float switch, and follow local electrical safety rules when connecting and operating the pump. For continuous or heavy-duty applications consider periodic service and bearing/motor checks to ensure reliable operation.
