Uppopumppu Gardena 5500/5

The Gardena 5500/5 submersible pump is engineered for deep water extraction with a maximum immersion depth of 19 m and operation on 220–240 V AC. Housed in stainless steel for enhanced corrosion resistance and durability, the pump delivers steady performance for draining wells, basements and flooded spaces. At 7.5 kg it combines robust construction with manageable weight for easier handling and installation.

Advantages

The stainless steel housing provides long service life and resistance to corrosion in demanding environments. Designed for continuous submersion, the pump maintains stable flow rates under pressure and across extended operating periods. Its electric motor and compatible mains voltage allow straightforward connection to standard household and site power supplies. The compact form factor and moderate weight simplify positioning, lowering and retrieval from deep or confined locations.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Draining water from wells and boreholes
• Removing water from flooded basements and cellars
• Emptying sumps and collection pits
• Supplying water for irrigation from deep sources

• Weight: 7.5 kg

How to use

Before installation, verify that the supply voltage matches the pump rating and inspect the power cable and plug for damage. Lower the pump carefully to the required depth, ensuring it remains upright and clear of debris or obstructions. Secure the power cable and any guide rope to prevent accidental movement. Connect the discharge hose or pipe to the outlet fitting, confirm all connections are tight, and switch on the power. Monitor the pump during initial operation to confirm steady flow and absence of excessive vibration or noise. After use, isolate the power, lift the pump out of the water, allow it to drain, and store it in a dry place.

Recommendations

Use a suitable filter or strainer at the intake when operating in water with suspended solids to reduce wear. Avoid dry running; ensure the pump remains submerged during operation. For long-term installations, inspect seals and electrical connections periodically and follow local electrical safety regulations when connecting to mains supply.
