More about this product
Product overview
The Pedrollo BC 55/50 is a 4 kW (5.5 HP) heavy-duty submersible double-channel pump for sewage and sludge on a 400 V three-phase supply, covering 300 to 2100 l/min with a working head of 20 m down to 6 m. The two-channel impeller handles sewage and sludge with suspended solids.
The BC is built from thick stainless steel and cast iron for exceptional robustness, abrasion resistance and durability. It drains sewage, sludge-mixed water, and activated and putrid sludge, in sewers, tunnels, excavations, canals and underground car parks. The motor has a built-in three-phase thermal protector that trips on overheating or abnormal current draw.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to common questions about the Pedrollo BC 55/50 Three Phase 2302610. For technical specifications, see the product details above; for sizing or installation advice, contact our team. If you have any other questions, we're happy to help.
What is a submersible pump?
A submersible pump is designed to operate fully submerged in the liquid it is moving. The motor is sealed inside the pump body and cooled by the surrounding water. Submersibles are used for drainage, sewage, septic tanks, deep wells and boreholes, and for raising water from sumps, cellars and floodwater. Many stocked at Anglian Pumping handle solids in suspension.
Can submersible pumps handle solids and sewage?
Yes – some submersibles are designed for clean water only, others handle solids up to 50 mm or full raw sewage. Anglian Pumping stocks ABS, BBC, Flygt and T-T Submersibles ranges that include vortex, single channel and grinder impellers for different solids handling requirements. Always match the pump to the maximum solid size and the type of effluent it will see.
When should I use a submersible pump instead of a surface pump?
Use a submersible when the water level is more than around 8 metres below the pump installation point – surface pumps cannot self-prime beyond that depth. Submersibles are also better when the liquid contains solids, when noise must be minimised, or when the pump needs to operate in confined spaces such as sumps and chambers where a surface pump would not fit.
