Mine dewatering
Outstanding performance under pressure
Efficient water management is essential for any mine site, especially where the conditions are challenging and the weather is changeable, unpredictable or the rainy season is coming. That’s why we’re expanding our XJ range of dewatering pumps to be able to handle even the most difficult applications, whilst maintaining excellent hydraulic performance.
Submersible solutions
Our dewatering pumps deliver exceptional hydraulic performance to effectively remove unwanted water in both underground and above ground applications.

- Open-pits
High-capacity dewatering with the XJ 900
The Sulzer XJ 900 brings state-of-the-art hydraulic design, an IE3 motor and innovative solutions to common mine dewatering challenges. White cast iron impellers with rubber coated volutes provide long pump life in demanding mining applications. Double mechanical seals in oil bath with both seal surfaces in silicon carbide give extended service life. The unique design allows for quick conversion between high-head and high-flow configurations, making it possible to stock fewer pumps and still have the right hydraulic performance for the job.
