Plug-In Utility Pump 115V AC
The Zoeller 46-0005 is a plug-in utility pump designed for draining and transfer tasks. It operates on 115V AC single-phase power at 60 Hz with a 6-amp draw. The polypropylene body and plastic impeller resist corrosion in typical water applications. It stands 14.5 inches tall with an 8-inch body diameter.
Flow Rates at Key Head Heights
This pump delivers 55 gallons per minute at 5 feet of head, 47 gpm at 10 feet, 36 gpm at 15 feet, and 25 gpm at 20 feet. Maximum shut-off head reaches 34 feet. These four data points determine whether the unit matches the required lift and volume for a specific installation.
Suits Basement and Utility Draining.
The pump suits homeowners or contractors needing portable dewatering for basements, window wells, or equipment pits with at least 8 inches of water depth and an 8-inch sump diameter. It is not for buyers who need an integrated float switch for automatic cycling, nor for installations where liquid temperatures exceed 104 degrees Fahrenheit.

Questions about this item
What does the 55 gpm flow rate at 5 ft of head mean for actual drainage speed?
At a 5 ft lift the pump moves up to 55 gallons per minute, so a typical basement sump can be cleared in minutes rather than hours.
The pump runs on 115 V AC at 60 Hz — what does that limit in a household installation?
It plugs into any standard 115 V household outlet on a 15 A circuit; no special wiring or phase converter is required.
The body is 8 in diameter and 14.5 in tall — what size sump pit do I need?
The minimum pit diameter is 8 in, so the pump fits directly into an 8 in or larger basin with at least 8 in of water depth.
