Automatic Cast Iron Submersible Sump/Effluent Pump

The 506807 6EC-CIA-SFS 1/3 hp, 3180 GPH, 115-volt sump/effluent pump from The Little Giant is an ideal choice for use as a sump pump, light effluent pump, or emergency water transfer pump. This robust pump can handle up to 1/2-inch solids and has a 1.5-inch FNPT discharge. The polypropylene base helps prevent rust stains on floors when used as an emergency water transfer pump, and it comes with a standard 10-foot power cord.

The pump is built to last, featuring an epoxy-coated cast iron cover, housing, and volute, as well as a nitrile/carbon/ceramic mechanical shaft seal, a cold-rolled steel shaft, and upper and lower ball bearings. The continuous duty motor is energy-efficient, with a 115-volt, 5 Amp, 600-Watt PSC (permanent split capacitor) design, and it also includes a standard 10-foot power cord.

The pump's automatic operation is facilitated by a snap-action float switch, which turns the pump on when the water reaches 8 to 11 inches and shuts it off when the water drops to between 2 and 5 inches. This makes it suitable for handling light effluent waste, as it can manage up to 1/2-inch semi-solids.

The pump's specifications include a 1/3 HP motor, 115-Volt, 5 Amp, 600 Watt, 60 Hz operation, with a 53 GPM flow rate at a 5-foot lift, a 28-ft shutoff, and a 12.1 PSI rating. The integral snap-action float switch and the polypropylene base complete the package, making this pump a durable and reliable choice for a variety of water handling tasks.
