Grundfos are known throughout the drainage world for their high quality construction and easy-to-use products. The AP series is one of their most popular, offering the ability to be installed both temporary or permanently, and also on a free-standing basis.
The company’s ethos of using high quality materials and construction is in evidence throughout the units, which are created using mostly stainless steel. A composite baseplate is then added, which is itself perfectly optimised to suit both freestanding and auto-coupled connection. Also included within the units are a clip on strainer designed to prevent large particles from entering and a ring at the base designed to prevent dirt from sticking to the clips.
Easy-to-install, the units rarely require maintenance or servicing, with the quality Grundfos materials renowned for their long-term reliability. Having created the popular MAGNA and KP series of pumps, the company are known for producing materials of genuine quality. Any investment in a Grundfos product saves you having to worry about maintenance issues further down the line.
The Grundfos AP 400v pump can be installed either with or without a float switch, so that the pumps can work both automatically or manually, depending on your preference. This allows it to be compatible with a wide range of different drainage systems.

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.
