Increasing weather extremes present construction companies with new challenges. While periods of drought cause dust pollution and falling groundwater levels, short, intense bouts of rainfall are increasingly leading to the flooding of construction pits.
Without reliable dewatering systems, companies risk delays and damage to machinery, materials and structures.
Thanks to their robust design, motor protection measures and forced lubrication, Tsurumi pumps are specifically engineered for tough, continuous use on construction sites.
Models such as the KTZ dewatering pumps and the LSC residue drainage pumps perform reliably even in high temperatures, heavily contaminated water and fluctuating water volumes. Thanks to their dry-running capabilities, they can operate without supervision.

“In summer, speed and reliability are key,” explained Stefan Himmelsbach, an application expert at Tsurumi (Europe). “Our pumps are built to keep operations running, even during heatwaves and storms.”
One example illustrates the real-world benefits. During the construction of the Mercaden Centre...
