HCP AN-2.5 Submersible Dewatering Pump for Construction and Basement Sump Pits
Product Overview
The HCP AN-2.5 submersible dewatering pump is a 1/2 HP unit that moves up to 53 GPM and passes 1/4 inch solids through a vortex impeller. It handles the muddy, silty, and sandy water that stalls a clean-water sump pump. Available in 120V single-phase and 208/240V or 575V three-phase.

Key Features of HCP AN-2.5 Submersible Dewatering Pumps
- The vortex impeller passes 1/4 inch (7 mm) solids, so the AN-2.5 moves muddy, silty, and sandy water that would jam a standard sump pump.
- A cast-iron (FC200) casing and volute with a 304 stainless steel motor frame handle abrasive grit and continuous duty.
- A double mechanical seal (carbon/ceramic upper, silicon carbide lower) runs in an oil-filled chamber to keep water out of the motor.
- The 120V model adds a built-in thermal protector and moisture sensor, and the IP68 sealed motor runs fully submerged to 33 ft (10 m).
- A stainless strainer screens out stones and debris before they reach the impeller.

Performance Overview
The AN-2.5 delivers up to 53 GPM and reaches about 30 ft of head. Flow is highest at low lift and tapers as height rises. A reliable dewatering pump for routine sump pits and low-lift excavation drainage.
AN-2.5 (1/2 HP) vs AN-21A (1 HP)
Both are AN-series dewatering pumps that pass 1/4 inch solids. The AN-21A doubles the motor for deeper pits and longer runs.
| Spec | AN-2.5 (1/2 HP) | AN-21A (1 HP) |
|---|---|---|
| Max flow | 53 GPM | 88 GPM |
| Max head | 30 ft | 53 ft |
| Rated current (120V) | 6 A | 10 A |
| Solids | 1/4 inch (7 mm) | 1/4 inch (7 mm) |
| Best for | Routine sump pits, low-lift jobs | Deeper pits, longer runs, higher inflow |
Applications
- Basement and cellar sump pits with muddy or silty water
- Construction and excavation dewatering at low to moderate lift
- Utility vault and manhole drainage
- Flood cleanup and storm response
- General jobsite dewatering where a clean-water sump pump jams on grit

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the HCP AN-2.5 replace the A-05?
Yes. The AN-2.5 is HCP's replacement for the discontinued A-05, with the same 1/2 HP, 2 inch, 1/4 inch solids setup and an updated AN-series motor. It comes in 120V, 240V, and 575V, so existing A-05 installs swap over with no plumbing change.
How much water does the AN-2.5 move?
Up to 53 GPM, with a maximum head near 30 ft. Flow is highest at low lift and drops as discharge height rises. For higher flow or deeper pits, step up to the 1 HP AN-21A.
AN-2.5 or AN-21A, which do I need?
The AN-2.5 handles routine sump pits and low-lift dewatering on a 6 A circuit. The AN-21A doubles the flow and nearly doubles the head for deeper pits, longer runs, and heavier inflow. Both pass 1/4 inch solids.
What solids can the AN-2.5 handle?
Up to 1/4 inch (7 mm), through a vortex impeller. That covers muddy, silty, and sandy water. It is not a sewage pump; those pass 2 inch solids.
Is the HCP AN-2.5 certified, and does it have motor protection?
Yes. It carries CSA C22.2 No. 108-14 and cUL (UL778), with an IP68 sealed motor. The 120V model includes a built-in thermal protector and a moisture sensor.
