Efficient Fluid Transfer with Advanced Pump Solutions
Flooded suction pumps, available in both vertical and horizontal configurations, are essential for transferring slurry and liquids between various storage systems, such as tanks and hoppers. Positioned externally and below the liquid level, these pumps rely on gravity to maintain consistent priming, enabling smooth and reliable operation.
This design ensures rapid and efficient starts and stops, with the pump chamber and piping naturally filled with liquid. Horizontal pumps are favored for their ease of maintenance, while vertical pumps excel in space-constrained environments. New Zealand Pump and Dredge stands out as a trusted name in the pump and dredge industry, serving challenging applications across New Zealand.
At New Zealand Pump and Dredge, we specialize in crafting durable vertical and horizontal flooded suction pumps designed with non-clogging impellers to handle even the toughest tasks.

Diverse Applications of Flooded Suction Pumps
Flooded suction pumps serve as essential equipment across a wide range of industries, including agriculture, oil and gas, sand and gravel pumping, and mining. Unlike submersible pumps, which operate underwater, these pumps are installed externally and use gravity to maintain a consistent prime without the need for additional vacuum systems. This design simplifies installation and maintenance, making them a dependable solution for numerous industrial applications.
Often paired with an electric motor, flooded suction pumps provide precise control over startup speeds and operational settings, such as flow rate and pressure, through the use of a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD). The VFD regulates the motor’s frequency and voltage, allowing for optimized pump performance, efficient operation, and reduced energy consumption. In areas without access to electric power, diesel-driven motors are a reliable alternative. To ensure continuous operation, particularly with thicker or more challenging materials, a steady liquid feed is essential—this may require the assistance of a self-priming pump or vacuum pump to support the liquid’s flow.
New Zealand Pump and Dredge offers a comprehensive range of self-priming pumps, delivering dependable solutions tailored to meet your specific pumping needs in New Zealand. Contact us today to explore how we can help with your fluid transfer requirements!
