Maximum length we recommend is 150 m, maximum lift height is about 24 m. The nature of your sediment and the distance pumped will affect the capacity. Many argue that the mud portion is much more than 10 %. The capacity is 60 cubic meter per hour at full vent, which means about 6 cubic meter of mud per hour at 10% blend. Photos of the accessory can be found here. We have developed an accessory in the form of a knife which cuts the bottom if it would be too hard for suction, the knife will also protect the pump if you use it on a stony bottom.

We sell a 2.5 inch Italian high quality flat hose in 50 m length and it is good idea is to buy an extra quick coupling so you can easily divide the hose into the appropriate lengths. Some buy a shorter shaft so they can change, it will then be more comfortable to dredge with a shorter shaft when it is very shallow. It is possible to have different length of the shaft, default is 2.5 m. See photos and videos in the gallery how to use it. The ideal raft is the EasyFloat 2.4 * 3.0 m that we also distribute. Best is to mount it on a platform that you can remove from the raft when you want to use the raft for something else. You should mount it on a raft, a steady boat or you could do some dredging from the ice. The DIY-dredger is delivered with a variable mounting, 2.5 m transparent hose and one Cam Lock coupling. DIY-Dredge The dredge DIY-Dredge is a small compact portable, engine powered, sediment removal pump, providing the ability to excavate and transfer mud sand & muck up to 150 m away.
