Water Pump Sthor 79909

The Sthor 79909 water pump is a compact submersible pump designed for basic water transfer tasks. With a 400 W motor running on 230 V AC at 50 Hz and an IP68 protection rating, the unit is built for continuous operation while submerged. The pump weighs 2.7 kg and comes with a 10 m power cable, providing flexibility in placement and allowing operation in wells, sumps, or flooded spaces. The design focuses on reliable removal of clear or slightly dirty water for drainage and simple irrigation needs.

Advantages

The pump's IP68 rating ensures safe submersion and protection against dust ingress, while the 400 W motor delivers sufficient power for rapid draining of shallow flooded areas and water relocation. The included 10 m cable increases reach and convenience during installation. Its relatively low weight of 2.7 kg simplifies handling and transport between job sites. The unit is suitable for routine tasks where a straightforward, electrically powered submersible pump is required.

How to use

Before use, inspect the pump and cable for visible damage and ensure the power supply matches the pump's rated voltage. Place the pump fully submerged in the water to be removed, ensuring stable positioning on a flat surface where possible. Connect to a properly grounded 230 V outlet using an RCD-protected circuit if available. Switch on the pump and monitor operation until the required water level is reached. After use, disconnect the power, lift the pump from the water by the handle or cable, and allow it to drain before storage.

Usage recommendations

Use the pump for clear or slightly dirty water; avoid pumping heavily contaminated liquids with large solids or abrasive particles. Regularly check the intake and impeller area for debris and keep the cable and plug dry when connecting to the mains. Store the pump in a dry place when not in use and perform periodic inspections to ensure reliable operation.
