Tsurumi Europe
Four gigantic Tsurumi dewatering pumps demonstrate their capabilities in a water sports facility. They could also fill an average public swimming pool – in just half a minute.
The comparison illustrates the immense size of the pumps that Tsurumi has installed in a water sports facility – here during the installation work

However, an SSP-1350GS pump weighs 10 t and is 5.4 m long. With 350 kW motor power, it pushes 240 m3 of water through its 135 cm wide outlet every minute. That's 4 m3 per second!
Four of these giants have been installed in Japan's only artificial canoe slalom course facility. The 58 million € Canoe Slalom Centre in Tokyo has a 200 x 10 m (irregular) pool with an average depth of 1.5 m. There, the pumps battle against a 4,5 m slope, providing a lively spectacle for 7500 guests.
But these submersible pumps are not even the largest in the Tsurumi range, which in Europe alone includes more than 500 models of dewatering and sewage pumps with capacities of up to 30 m3/min or 216 m head – all available from stock. A wide selection will be on display at Tsurumi´s BAUMA stand A6.338, some of which in wet operation. Find out more at
