LEO XKS-P Series Garden Submersible Water Pumps (Models XKS-250P, XKS-400P, & XKS-750P)
Every homeowner needs a reliable emergency pump, and the LEO XKS-P Series is the perfect residential defense against unexpected flooding. A highly versatile essential in the Afrogulf catalog, these submersible pumps are designed to operate completely underwater. Because standard metal pumps can become heavy and prone to rust, the “P” series is constructed with a high-impact, engineered plastic body. This makes the pump incredibly lightweight and easy to carry using the ergonomic top handle, while remaining 100% immune to corrosion during long-term storage or submerged use.
The defining safety feature of the XKS-P series is its fully automated float switch. You can confidently drop this pump into a flooded basement or a rainwater harvesting tank and walk away. As the water level rises, the buoyant float switch floats up and turns the motor on. Once the water is safely pumped out, the switch drops and automatically shuts the motor off, completely preventing the pump from running dry and burning out. Complete with a multi-stage hose adapter and built-in thermal protection, it is the ultimate, low-maintenance workhorse for domestic water transfer.
Key Features & Specifications:
-
Automatic Float Switch: The tethered float switch provides automated, hands-free operation by turning the pump on and off based on the surrounding water level, preventing dry-run damage.
-
Rust-Proof Polymer Body: The entire outer casing is forged from heavy-duty, high-impact plastic, ensuring it remains lightweight, portable, and completely free from rust.
-
Low-Level Suction: The specialized bottom-suction design allows the pump to drain flooded floors down to a remarkably low water level before shutting off.
-
Built-in Thermal Protection: The highly efficient copper-wound motor features an automatic thermal overload protector to prevent overheating during extended pumping sessions.
-
Multi-Size Hose Adapter: Includes a stepped discharge adapter, allowing you to easily connect various sizes of standard garden hoses or flexible lay-flat discharge pipes.
Applications: Highly recommended for emergency drainage of flooded basements and garages, emptying swimming pools and hot tubs, transferring water from rain barrels or underground tanks, and general garden irrigation. (Note: Designed for clean to slightly dirty water; not suitable for heavy mud or sewage).
