TUSSU® submersible pumps are heavy-duty, wear-resistant units designed for mining, civil construction, and municipal wastewater. Our range includes the KBZ series with integrated intelligent control systems that prevent dry-running and motor burnout. Featuring high-chrome impellers and agitators, Tussu pumps excel in moving abrasive sand, sludge, and bentonite with solids up to 30mm.
Engineered for Tough Mining & Construction Sites
Automatic Level Sensing: Integrated sensors automatically start/stop the pump based on water levels, reducing energy consumption by up to 40%.
Superior Material Science: Equipped with High Chrome (Cr27) agitators to fluidize settled solids, making them ideal for “clean-up” sumps and dredging.
Motor Protection: Double mechanical seals and thermal sensors ensure reliable operation at depths of up to 25 meters.
Technical Data (Quick Reference)


[FAQ] Professional Submersible Pump Guide
- Q: How does the KBZE intelligent control system protect the pump?
A: Unlike traditional pumps, our KBZE series features an integrated electronic sensor. If the water level drops below the probe for a set time, the pump stops automatically to prevent dry-running. It restarts only when water contacts the probe again, significantly reducing motor failure and energy costs.
2. Q: Can Tussu pumps handle fluids with high solid content?
A: Yes. For high-concentration slurry, we recommend our KBD series with a built-in 27% high-chrome agitator. This device creates a vortex that fluidizes settled solids, allowing the pump to transport sludge containing up to 30% sand or grit by weight.
3. Q: What is the maximum installation depth for Tussu submersible pumps?
A: Our standard units are rated for a depth of 25 meters. For deep-well or high-head mining applications, we offer customized reinforced mechanical seals that can withstand pressures up to 50m immersion.
Civil Construction Dewatering in Jakarta, Indonesia
Project Background: A high-rise basement excavation faced sudden groundwater ingress during the monsoon season.
The Challenge: The water contained high levels of abrasive silt, causing the competitor’s standard drainage pumps to burn out within 48 hours.
The Solution: We deployed 12 units of Tussu KBZ 4-15 (15kW) pumps.
The Result: Our high-chrome impellers withstood the silt abrasion for 3 months of continuous 24/7 operation without a single motor failure, keeping the site dry and saving the client $20,000 in replacement costs.
