Submersible Pump · Pumps
The Grindex Minex drainage pump utilizes a revolutionary hydraulic design to ensure high wear resistance and minimize performance decline over time. This compact pump, part of the Grindex drainage range, boasts all the essential features of its larger counterparts, offering the lowest cost per cubic meter pumped. Measuring 2 inches, the discharge connection accommodates both 2-inch hose and 2-inch NPT or ISO-G threads. Powered by a 230-Volt AC, single-phase motor with a rated current of 8.2 amps, the Minex features a cartridge seal with a double mechanical seal running in an oil compartment. The lower seal is constructed from silicon carbide, while the upper seal is made of tungsten carbide and aluminum oxide. This pump is designed to handle liquids with a maximum temperature of 40 degrees C (104 degrees F) and a pH range between 5 and 8. The maximum submersion depth is 20 meters (66 feet), and it can pass solids up to 0.3 inches (1/3 of an inch) in diameter.

| Seal oil chamber check | typically every 1,000-2,000 running hours or every 6-12 months, whichever comes first |
|---|---|
| Insulation resistance test | every 6-12 months, or before returning to service after storage |
| Impeller/wear plate inspection | condition-based, typically annually or when flow/head drops off |
| Cable and gland inspection | every 6-12 months |
Typical intervals for this design class, not the manufacturer’s figures for your model. The manufacturer’s manual is binding.
| Seal chamber oil water content | any significant water content or emulsification at inspection indicates seal wear and warrants seal replacement - no fixed percentage threshold published, follow maker's service manual |

Ranges are typical for this design class. Always confirm against the manufacturer documentation for your serial number.
Portable/emergency drainage pumps are often checked during fire and emergency equipment surveys for availability, condition and correct stowage rather than as a fixed CSM item; where fitted as a permanent bilge/drainage pump, verify against the vessel's approved bilge pumping arrangement.
Estimated lifetime: Compact drainage pumps of this class typically give several thousand hours of service between seal/impeller overhauls under normal duty, with total service life strongly dependent on solids content and dry-running incidents rather than a fixed hour figure
