Draper SWP260 Submersible Dirty Water Pump

The Draper SWP260 is a 550W submersible dirty water pump capable of handling water contaminated with solids such as mud, sand, leaves, and debris, making it well-suited to flooded land, construction sites, basements, ponds, and septic systems. Unlike standard clean water pumps, the SWP260 is designed to move thick, contaminated water without the risk of clogging or internal damage. With a maximum output of 260 litres per minute and the ability to pass solids up to 35mm in diameter, it handles demanding site conditions where lesser pumps would fail. The pump can be submerged to a depth of 7 metres and features an automatic float switch that activates and deactivates the motor in response to rising and falling water levels. This hands-free operation makes it particularly practical for unattended drainage tasks. A 10-metre power cable provides useful reach from a mains supply, and the maximum head height of 8 metres ensures efficient discharge even where water needs to be lifted to ground level or beyond. Portability is well considered for a pump of this capability. At 4.78kg and fitted with a telescopic carry handle, the SWP260 is straightforward to transport between locations on site.
