Pedestal Pump
Pedestal Pump by Malhar Pump
A pump like this earns its place in almost any installation, especially where the fluid is aggressive, unpredictable, or prone to sudden level changes that would put a standard motor and bearing at risk. These pumps are built for exactly that kind of situation – keeping the working parts sitting well above the liquid line instead of submerged in it, where wear and damage happen fastest. A Non Clog Sump Pump and Solid Handling Sump Pump both run alongside this design equally well on continuous duty or intermittent cycles, moving difficult media while the motor stays safely out of the fluid.
Because the bearing on this pump lubricates itself, there is no separate greasing schedule to track and no lubrication point to accidentally miss. That alone removes a large share of the routine maintenance burden. A Drainage Pump built around the same protective principle handles pits and sumps where grit, sludge, and solids show up regularly in the incoming fluid – and this design takes that same idea further by lifting the motor and bearing entirely clear of the liquid, so even a sudden rise in sump level does not put critical components at risk. The result is a pump that stays protected and easy to check whenever servicing is due.
As a Pedestal Pump manufacturer, we build equipment that holds up in the kind of unpredictable, aggressive, and messy sump conditions where keeping the motor above the fluid line makes all the difference.

Pedestal Pump
These pumps are made for conditions that wear out standard equipment fast. Continuous duty or intermittent operation - the Self Lubricated Sump Pump manages both without performance falling off. A Non Clog Sump Pump variant handles stringy, fibrous, or solid-laden media without jamming mid-operation. Suction extensions, float switches for automatic control, and duplex configurations are all available so the pump fits your actual site requirement rather than the other way around.
Why Choose This Pump
These pumps do not put the motor at risk just because the sump gets messy - that is the entire point behind the design. Whether the liquid is aggressive, fibrous, or carrying heavy solids, this pedestal-mounted design keeps the critical components clear of it, on either continuous or intermittent duty. Suction extensions, float switches for automatic control, and duplex configurations are all available, so the pump gets built around your site instead of forcing your process to work around it. A Stainless Steel or PP-bodied variant is also available depending on what your fluid's chemical makeup calls for.
Performance and Range
- Maximum working temperature: 110°C / 200°C depending on model
- Available lengths: 1 foot up to 12 feet
- Flow capacity: up to 500 m³/h, higher available on request
- Head: up to 120 meters, multi-stage versions for more demanding applications
- Custom-built models available for special media or high-head requirements
Models You Can Choose
- Standard Self Lubricated Sump Pump for general industrial sump applications
- Non Clog Sump Pump for fibrous, stringy, or solid-carrying fluids
- Solid Handling Sump Pump for heavy slurry and abrasive media
- Drainage Pump for pits, tanks, and low-level liquid collection sumps
- Pedestal Pump where motor and bearing protection above the liquid level is needed
- Duplex pumping station with auto float switch control
- Extended suction models for deeper tanks or pits
Where They Work Best
Industries use our sump pumps in many ways:
- Wastewater and effluent treatment plants where sump levels rise and fall unpredictably
- Chemical plants handling aggressive fluids where motor protection is non-negotiable
- Paper and textile industries, where fibrous material clogs standard pumps
- Food processing and distillery units with thick or solid-laden waste streams
- Any application where a Solid Handling Sump Pump is needed for abrasive or heavy media
- Industrial setups where a Drainage Pump handles low-level pit and sump clearance
Anywhere a submerged motor would be a liability, a Pedestal Pump is usually the fix.
Any process that needs a contamination-free pumping system.
Benefits You Get
- Self-lubricating bearing – no greasing schedule, nothing to forget
- Pedestal Pump layout keeps motor and bearings well above the liquid, protected and easy to inspect
- Non-clog design keeps rags and fibrous strands from causing a blockage
- Solid Handling Sump Pump construction takes on abrasive fluids without wearing out fast
- Drainage Pump variants handle low-level sumps and collection pits efficiently
- Float switch and duplex options make the whole setup automation-ready

Installation and Support
Before we finalise a model, share your process details – fluid type, solid content, sump depth, temperature, and required flow rate. That is what lets us point you straight to the right Pedestal Pump without back and forth later. Once it is installed, routine inspection is typically enough to keep it running long term, even in the messiest, most demanding applications.

FAQ
What makes a Pedestal Pump different from a standard submersible sump pump?
A submersible pump sits directly in the fluid. A Pedestal Pump keeps the motor and bearing mounted above the liquid level, connected to the impeller by an extended shaft – which protects critical components from aggressive or unpredictable fluid conditions.
Can a Pedestal Pump handle sudden changes in sump level?
Yes. Since the motor and bearing sit well above the working liquid line, a rise in sump level does not put the critical components at risk the way it would with a fully submerged design.
Where does a Pedestal Pump work better than a standard vertical sump pump?
A Pedestal Pump works better where the fluid is particularly aggressive or where keeping the motor and bearing away from the liquid level adds a meaningful layer of protection and easier access during servicing.
