Dewatering Pumps
Underground mines utilise water in their production processes, but it is imperative that the waste water is removed from tunnels so drilling schedules can be met. Dewatering can involve heavy, dirty water that may damage normal pumping equipment.
As a leading manufacturer of dewatering pumps and related equipment, P.U.M.P takes pride in helping customers solve their toughest dewatering challenges. We will work with you to determine the most efficient dewatering technique whilst aligning solutions with your operations plan. Our range of dewatering pumps are available for rent or purchase.
Why is Dewatering Important?
Open Pit Dewatering
Helps to manage rainwater, improve seepage water management and aids in lowering the water table to control ground water influx.
Underground Dewatering
Aids in keeping water out of sumps, optimises main drainage and boosts water out of mining shafts.
All Mine Dewatering Systems
Reduces equipment corrosion and material hauling costs, additionally dewatering pumps assist in extending asset life.
Enhancing Mine Safety, Productivity & Profitability
Keeps water in its place, protects mine workers and promotes continued operations. Choose Prestige Pumps for all your mine dewatering needs.
Pump Use Cases
Prestige’s pumps and equipment are suitable for a diverse range of applications spanning across the mining, processing & construction industries.
Natural Events
Civil contractors often deal with ground water and rain when clearing areas for major earthworks.
Pipe Installations
Groundwater suppression is often required when laying major pipelines. Submersible pumps make this possible.
Dredging
Dredging is another application where submersible pumps can be utilised to remove silt build up from waterways.
Shut Downs
Shutdowns of processing plants require pumps to remove waste water from tanks for maintenance or cleaning.
Spillages
Spillage events at processing plants require pumps to remove or recycle the spillage.
Protecting The Environment
Preventing waste water run-offs is a consideration for all mining operations who must abide by the boundaries of their mining lease and ensure nearby waterways and national parks are not contaminated.

They are built to perform reliably in harsh conditions commonly found at mining sites throughout Australia and across international mining operations worldwide.
How long can I rent a mining pump for?
What size pump do I need for my mining dewatering project?
The right pump size depends on several factors including flow rate, head pressure, pumping distance, and the type of material being transferred. We assess water inflow rates, vertical lift requirements, and whether you’re pumping clean water or water containing solids and debris. For example, a 50-metre deep dewatering pit typically requires a higher-capacity pump. Our experienced team can evaluate your specific site conditions and recommend the most efficient solution for your project.
