Read our privacy policyThe Multiquip ST2047 is a 2-inch submersible centrifugal pump designed for dependable water removal in construction, utility, municipal, and general dewatering applications. With a maximum pumping capacity of 85 GPM and a maximum head of 46 feet, the ST2047 provides efficient water transfer for a variety of confined and open-area applications.
Designed for demanding jobsite use, the ST2047 features a neoprene rubber-over-steel impeller, oil-bathed dual silicon carbide mechanical seals, stainless steel mechanical shaft and hardware, internal thermal overload protection, and a 49.2-foot power cable with strain-relief protection. Its 115V single-phase configuration provides convenient operation where suitable electrical power is available.
A submersible dewatering pump operates while submerged in the water being removed. The ST2047 uses a centrifugal impeller to move water through its 2-inch discharge, making it suitable for general water-removal applications where dependable pumping and compact equipment are required. Multiquip positions the ST2047 for use by contractors, service utilities, municipalities, and homeowners.
The ST2047 is rated for a maximum pumping capacity of 85 GPM and a maximum head of 46 feet. Actual pumping performance varies according to total system resistance, including discharge elevation, hose length, fittings, and other flow restrictions. The maximum-rated values represent the pump's published operating capabilities and should not be interpreted as simultaneous maximum flow and maximum head.
The ST2047 uses a neoprene rubber-over-steel impeller designed for dependable pumping performance. Its mechanical seal system consists of oil-bathed, dual silicon carbide, corrosion-resistant seals, with a specified seal-oil capacity of 4.0 ounces (120 cc). The pump also uses a stainless steel mechanical shaft, nitrile rubber O-rings, and stainless steel hardware.
The ST2047 operates at 115V, single-phase, 60 Hz. The current Multiquip specification lists 25 amps of starting current and 9.8 amps of running current, with a motor speed of 3,250 ±30 RPM. The pump uses a NEMA 5-15P plug and a 49.2-foot (15-meter) power cable with strain-relief protection.
Internal thermal overload protection is standard on the ST2047 and helps protect the motor from excessive operating temperatures. The current specification lists Class E insulation and counterclockwise rotation. The manufacturer also notes that the ST2047 does not require additional electrical protection for its internal thermal overload protection function.
The ST2047 has a 7.4-inch pump diameter and a 15.4-inch overall height, providing a compact form suitable for transporting between dewatering locations. The ST2047 lists a dry weight of 33.1 pounds (15.0 kg), making the pump practical for applications where equipment needs to be moved between work areas.
The current ST2047 specification lists a maximum fluid temperature of 104°F (40°C), maximum solid handling of 0.2 inches (5 mm), and a minimum pumping level of 2.36 inches (60 mm). The specified minimum submergence is 19.2 inches (487.7 mm). The pump is not intended for pumping salt water or chemicals, and the manufacturer provides operating instructions that should be followed to prevent dry operation and protect the pump from debris.
The ST2047 can be configured with compatible Multiquip float-switch options for automatic water-level control. The current 2026 documentation identifies SW1A, SW1WOPA, and SW2A float-switch configurations, including single mechanical float and double mechanical float options depending on the selected configuration. These accessories provide options for manual or automatic pump operation and should be selected according to the intended installation.
The ST2047 is designed for general water-removal and dewatering applications involving construction sites, confined areas, utility work, municipal operations, and other locations where a compact 2-inch submersible pump is appropriate. Its 1 HP motor, 85 GPM maximum pumping capacity, and 46-foot maximum head provide a practical combination of flow and lifting capability for suitable clean-water applications.
The Multiquip New Product Limited Warranty currently provides one year of parts and labor coverage for electric submersible pumps other than the Yellow Submarine. Warranty coverage is subject to the manufacturer's complete warranty terms, conditions, exclusions, and applicable requirements.
The Multiquip ST2047 is a powerful and compact electric submersible pump designed for dependable water removal across construction, industrial, and residential applications. Powered by a heavy-duty 1 HP, 115V single-phase motor, the ST2047 delivers up to 85 gallons per minute with a maximum published head of 46 feet, providing reliable performance for demanding dewatering jobs.
Its 2-inch NPT discharge connection provides efficient water movement, while the compact steel housing and streamlined design allow the pump to fit into pipes as small as 8 inches in diameter. The ST2047 is well suited for standing water, well casings, excavations, site drainage, manholes, flooded rooftops, irrigation, flooded basements, swimming pools, decorative waterfalls, fountains, and other water-removal applications.
Built for dependable operation, the ST2047 features an aluminum motor casing that helps conduct heat away from the motor, along with internal thermal protection to help prevent motor failure caused by overloading or dry running. A 49.2-foot molded power cord with strain relief provides extended reach, while its rugged construction supports reliable performance in demanding dewatering environments.
