  SP1 Suction Pump and Accessories


The Waterra SP1 portable suction pump weighs only 7 kg and is powered by the Honda GX series of ultra-small 4-stroke engines. This is a standalone general purpose water pump capable of delivering up to 100 litres per minute.

Used in conjunction with inertial pumps, the SP1 pump can also be used for purging and sampling boreholes at suction depths (typically where water levels are within 7 to 9m of ground level). The inertial pump is used to manually prime the suction pump. The suction pump can then be used to discharge purge water lifted by suction through the inertial pump tubing. Once purging is completed and to avoid cross-contamination, the suction pump is disconnected and samples taken by manual operation of the inertial pump.
