High head dewatering pump in granite mine in Poland
07 January 2025
Our BBA Pumps branch in Poland recently supplied a BA80H D290 high head pump for the dewatering of a granite mine. Due to the height differences, a lot of pumping pressure is required to discharge the excess water. Our 3-inch high head pump is a perfect pump solution for the dewatering of this quarry. The diesel driven pumpset delivers up to 100 m3/hour at a pressure of 10 bar.
Are you looking for a high head pump? BBA Pumps has a line up high head centrifugal pumps available with a flow up to 1200 m3/hour and head above 13 bar (130 mwc). Check out our high head pumps curves overview (pdf) and contact us for more information.
The granite mine is situated in the Lower Silesia Voivodeship of Poland. It is a significant site known for its rich deposits of high-quality granite. This region has a long history of granite quarrying, which dates back several centuries, and the mine itself has been a vital contributor to the local economy and industry. The Strzegom area is characterized by its rugged geological formations, which provide an ideal environment for granite extraction.
