The MicroForce is the highest-flow 230V packaged station we supply, with a maximum flow rate of 830 litres per minute and a maximum rated head of 10 metres, from a standard domestic single-phase supply.
It pairs a 190 litre chamber with the APP HD-15 submersible automatic pump and is built for one job: removing large volumes of flood water quickly, on sites where a lot of water arrives at once.
Permanent installations at flood-risk properties, where the volume of water arriving is beyond what a standard station can clear. It will pump water carrying sand, silt and fine particles.
Designed for high inflow conditions, the MicroForce system is ideal for sites at flood risk. It is not suitable for low-flow or small scale floods, to avoid rapid on/off cycling.
If your site sees small or intermittent volumes, a standard Iguazu Sump 635 is the better and cheaper choice, and will last longer because it will not short cycle.
This system should be installed with appropriate drainage connections to allow water to flow freely into the chamber. A high-flow pump can only perform if water can reach it at the same rate.
Not suitable for foul water.

The APP HD-15A has a maximum flow rate of 830 litres per minute and a maximum rated head of 10 metres.
These are the two ends of the pump curve rather than a single duty point: at 10 metres the flow has fallen to zero, and the full 830 litres per minute is only available with no lift at all. What you actually get sits between the two, where the curve meets the resistance of your pipework. Our pump performance calculator works that out for your pipe run, and how to read a pump curve explains the principle.
Full pump performance figures are in the specification table further down this page.
Depending on the desired installation, these chambers are often connected with suction and delivery hose, matched to the outlet size. On this station the outlet is 3 inch, so use 3 inch rigid pipework or 3 inch suction and delivery hose. 2 inch hose can also be used subject to the suitable hose tail adaptor.
This is a built-to-order item, so delivery takes slightly longer than usual, typically 3 to 5 days.
Supplied as a complete plug and play unit, ready for installation. Some on-site work is required, including reconnecting components, drilling entry holes for cables and routing wiring through a suitable conduit. Read our guide to installing a sump pump.
Images are indicative only. Photographs may show optional extras, accessories or pipework that are not included in this listing, and the chamber is shown cut open in some images to reveal the internal components. Your chamber is supplied whole. Please refer to the specification and the list of what is included above.
Pump station design and installation is site specific. You should always consult a suitably qualified engineer to determine the correct configuration and installation method for your application, and a qualified electrician for the electrical connection.
We supply equipment. We do not provide site-specific design or installation advice over the phone, because the correct configuration depends on levels, flows, ground conditions and the discharge route.

Watch below as we install a Packaged Pump Station into a garage floor, to assist with removing any floodwater that may enter.
In this instance, the property was suffering some water ingress into the garage through the walls, and also through a non-FPS Flood barrier.
The Sump Pump was installed into the garage floor to provide a passive solution to remove water from the garage.
