La Paz Hydraulic Submersible Pump FAQs
What is a La Paz hydraulic submersible pump used for?
La Paz hydraulic submersible pumps are used for compact hydraulic pumping of sludge, slurry, mud, solids-laden fluids, tank cleaning and confined-access material handling.
Should I choose a 3-inch or 4-inch La Paz pump?
Choose a 3-inch La Paz pump when portability and compact access matter most. Choose a 4-inch La Paz pump when the project needs higher flow, more capacity or a larger discharge size.
Should I choose La Paz or Hauler?
Choose La Paz for compact 3-inch and 4-inch hydraulic submersible pumping. Choose Hauler for larger hydraulic sand and slurry pump sizes from 3-inch through 16-inch.
When should I choose Growler instead of La Paz?
Choose Growler when the project is dredging settled material from a pond, lagoon, basin, marina or pit using a cable-deployed dredge pump setup.
