The LSC1.4S succeeds the famous LSC4, which was the original “puddle sucker”. It is able to pump water down to 1mm, which makes it suitable for pumping large or small areas of nuisance water found on flat surfaces.  This new, updated, model incorporates a dual position 1” outlet port, to enable the user to position the outlet hose horizontally or vertically and avoid it kinking; 50mm(2”) is also available, as an optional extra. For improved durability, during robust handling, it has a pressed steel outer casing and a cast aluminium pump stand to offer increased protection of the steel and rubber base plate. A combination of a rubber pump chamber and a urethane vortex impeller enables the design to offer excellent wear resistance in site water applications that contain sand and silt in suspension, thus maintaining performance and reliability. An additional feature is an integral swing check valve to prevent back flow of water from the discharge hose.  Quality is further enhanced with a 403 stainless steel shaft that is fitted with an ultra hardwearing, silicon carbide,  double mechanical seal (in an oil chamber), and an oil lifter to maintain seal lubrication during operation in any position. This feature, combined with the water and air cooling route to the top outlet, allows the pump to operate for extended periods with little or no water. For precise water level control a probe system is an optional extra (see page 39). This system can switch the pump on at a water depth of 12mm+ and switch it off at 5mm. Used widely by hire outlets, utilities and flood control companies. Supplied with 10 metres of heavy duty, H07RN-F rubber power cable.

For precise water level control we recommend the use of the SwitcH2O as an optional extra (see inset pic). 3 probes, in 304 stainless steel, are set in a epoxy-resin fi lled holder and they represent on, off and common. The common must always be the lowest point of the probes, while the on and off can be cut to any size from 5mm to 50mm, from the base of the pump, but must have a minimum difference of between 3 and 5mm. The SwitcH2O is used in conjunction with a QA50B control panel (included). It is supplied with 10 metres of low voltage, PVC power cable.
