The Pentax DC and DCT are a range of heavy duty high head submersible pumps designed for drainage of both clean and dirty water.

Engineered from solid cast-iron pump body and impeller, the Pentax DC and DCT pumps benefit from a double oil bathed mechanical seal housed within a lubricated chamber which offers positive seal lubrication which extends the pump life and offers reliability time and time again. 

Single phase 230v versions and three phase 400v versions are available.  The single phase, 230v Pentax DC and DCT pumps are supplied with an external capacitor.

The Pentax DC and DCT high head pumps come with a side outlet with the DC160, DC210, DCT160, DCT210 and DC310 versions including a 2 inch threaded port.  In contrast, the DCT410, DCT560, DCT750 and DCT1000 models are supplied on flange couplings.  Counter flange kits can be purchased individually if required.

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.
