Tsurumi HS2.4S-61 Submersible Pump | 0.5 HP 115V Manual

Product Details

The Tsurumi HS2.4S-62 is the quintessential professional dewatering pump, legendary for its ability to survive on the world's toughest jobsites. This 0.5 HP manual submersible trash pump is engineered to move more than just water; it’s designed to handle sand, silt, and debris that would destroy a standard utility pump. It solves the problem of clogged intakes and premature motor failure by using a built-in agitator to keep solids in suspension, making it the primary choice for contractors, rental yards, and municipalities.

Key Features:

• Built-in Shaft-Mounted Agitator: Actively stirs the liquid to prevent sand and silt from settling, allowing them to pass through the pump without causing an air lock or clog.
• Urethane Semi-Vortex Impeller: Far more durable than traditional cast iron or plastic, this urethane impeller provides maximum resistance to abrasive materials, extending the life of your investment.
• Manual Operation: Designed for continuous "plug-and-play" pumping. Without a float switch, it’s ideal for situations where you need to drain a pit to the lowest possible level under manual supervision.
• Dual Inside Mechanical Seals: Silicon Carbide faces are housed in an isolated oil chamber, offering the highest level of protection against leaks and motor burnout.
• Patented Oil Lifter: A Tsurumi exclusive that ensures mechanical seals remain lubricated and cooled, even if the pump is tilted or the oil level is low.

Specifications:

• Motor Output: 0.5 HP (0.4 kW)
• Voltage: 115V / 1-Phase / 60Hz
• Discharge Size: 2" NPT (Side Discharge)
• Max Flow Rate: 53 Gallons Per Minute (GPM)
• Max Head: 39 Feet
• Max Solids Diameter: 0.275" (7mm)
• Cable Length: 20 Feet (Heavy-Duty)

Installation & Maintenance Tips:

• Debris Management: While the HS2.4S is a trash pump, always ensure the suction strainer is used. It prevents large rocks or rags from entering the impeller chamber.
• Power Supply: Ensure you are using a 115V circuit with a 15-amp or 20-amp breaker. Avoid long, thin extension cords that can cause voltage drops and strain the motor.
• Oil Inspection: Periodically check the oil in the seal chamber. If the oil looks milky, it may indicate a seal replacement is needed to prevent water from reaching the motor.

Common Uses/Applications:

• Construction Excavations: Pumping out trenches, footings, and manholes where muddy or sandy water is constant.
• Industrial Drainage: Ideal for factory sumps or pits that accumulate abrasive sediments.
• Emergency Dewatering: Reliable high-volume removal for flooded residential or commercial spaces.

Common Questions:

Q: How is this different from the HSZ2.4S?

A: The HS2.4S is a manual pump—it runs as soon as you plug it in. The HSZ model includes an integrated vertical float switch for automatic operation.

Q: Can I run this pump out of the water?

A: The HS2.4S is water-cooled. While it can handle short periods of "snoring" (pumping a mix of air and water), it should not be left running dry for extended periods.

Q: Can this handle small gravel?

A: It can handle solids up to 0.275" (about the size of a pea). For larger solids, the suction strainer will prevent entry to protect the impeller.

Rugged, powerful, and nearly indestructible, the Tsurumi HS2.4S-62 is the ultimate solution for professionals who need a manual dewatering tool that performs reliably in the muddiest conditions.
