Built for tough dewatering jobs, this powerful slimline pump combines heavy-duty construction with an easy-handling design for dependable performance on the jobsite. Its top-discharge configuration maximizes motor cooling efficiency, helping support continuous-duty operation at low water levels and providing extended dry-run capability when conditions get unpredictable.
The LB-480 Slimline is engineered to go where standard pumps can’t—its compact profile fits into 8-inch pipes, making it ideal for confined spaces, manholes, and tight sumps. For long-lasting performance in abrasive water, it features a urethane semi-vortex impeller and urethane wear plates that resist wear while maintaining consistent pumping efficiency over time.
To protect critical components and extend service life, the pump is equipped with a dual inside mechanical seal with silicon carbide (SiC) faces for superior durability, along with a patented Oil Lifter that helps keep the seal faces properly lubricated. For added defense in gritty applications, an optional V-ring seal helps shield the mechanical seal from abrasive particles. When you need hands-off operation, pair it with the TS-301 float switch for reliable automatic start/stop control.
