Constructed with premium grade cast iron, the ULAV4J series of borehole pumps offers flow rates of 30–300 liters per minute, has a jacket-type construction and water-filled rewindable motors. Low friction carbon bushes ensure smooth operation and extend the lifespan of the pumps. The motors are safeguarded against sand ingress through a three-way protection system, while a replaceable counter-thrust pad limits rotor lift. A cable sand guard and specially designed double-layer stainless steel strainer prevent sand from entering the pump. Corrosion-resistant stainless-steel parts and engineered plastics are used for impellers and diffusers.

Kanishka Arumugam, co-CEO of EKKI Water Technology, said: “The ULAV4J groundwater pumps have successfully undergone extensive field testing, exceeding 6000+ hours, in some of the deepest and sandiest borewells. These pumps are available in both 50Hz and 60Hz variants, catering to global market applications. With its unmatched reliability, the ULAV4J will redefine groundwater pumping for buildings and agriculture.”
