Solids handling pumps are designed to handle the toughest dewatering, sewage, and sludge applications – perfect for waste and wastewater industries.
The Selwood range performs efficiently in the most challenging environments which is why they are invaluable in construction and civil engineering, oil and gas, pollution control and industrial settings.
Whatever your job, we have the solution.
Our ‘S’ Solids pumps
Selwood ‘S’ pumps are the market leader when it comes to solids handling.
Their vortex-flow design, Selprime automatic self-priming, emission compliant engines and ease of operation means trouble-free pumping of:
- raw and screened sewage
- sludge or slurry
- bentonite
- water with fine and large solids
- water containing rags and fibres
We also use the best materials for the job. A number of our ‘S’ pump models can be made with stainless steel interiors; robust and highly resistant to abrasion and corrosion. Pump internals are heat treated to make them even tougher – ideal for aggressive environments.
The S100, S150 and S200 are our signature Seltorque vortex flow pumps. Choose the S150M for a medium head pump with stainless steel internals and a semi-open two blade impeller, or the S300 for a medium head mixed flow two blade impeller.
The S100, S150 and S200 are available as a value-engineered option for lesser regulated areas.
As with all Selwood products, our solids handling pumps can be supplied with accessories and other equipment as a complete package suited for any application.
Why choose a Selwood solids handling pump
Built to last
Built with the highest quality of materials available, Selwood ‘S’ solids pumps stand the test of time, ensuring extended operational life, whatever the requirement. In fact, our solids handling pumps are so reliable that they offer years of repair-free operation, and they are carefully designed for easy maintenance.
Our unparalleled commitment to quality has ensured our position as leaders in the development and manufacture of outstanding pumps.
Easy to maintain
Our solids handling pumps are easy to maintain and can be repaired on site, giving you less downtime when it really matters. Their robust construction and dry running capability means they’re durable, reliable and cost less over their life cycle.
Close-coupled pump design (it’s all connected!) ensures ease of maintenance and repair with reduced noise, vibration and extended life.
You will also be able to purchase genuine spare parts or our recommended spares kit, giving you peace of mind in the unlikely event of a breakdown.
If you feel you could benefit from some extra support, we offer comprehensive training on solids pump maintenance, troubleshooting and more. We can offer structured or bespoke training programmes at our new technical training centre and classroom at Selwood’s head office, or we can come to you – wherever in the world you might be.
They come in Super Silent
When you’re operating around the clock, particularly in urban and residential areas, noise is a primary concern.
Our solids handling pumps can come with our Super Silent canopies, giving world-leading sound attenuation on both electric and diesel motors – meaning they’re the quietest pumps on the market today.
Our compact canopies are built to an extremely high technical standard, with protective enclosures and silencers designed to reduce operating noise. What’s more, with a Super Silent option, you will also benefit from protection against the elements and added security against theft or vandalism.
All buyers of our Super Silent solids pumps benefit from our Selprime automatic self-priming system and Selwood Standard Build – meaning they are delivered with the same additional extras as our rental customers, including:
- Auto stop/start for improved fuel efficiencies and lower emissions
- Our bulk fuel kit for cleaner and easier operation
- An oil drain kit for fast and clean oil changes
