is this pump submersable

I have not had it completely submersed but it is sealed and other than your switch and/or splice I would think it is.

Its ideal for direct switching of pumps up to 1 HP /250V. It is submersible. I installed one and its working perfectly well.

Yes, submerge the intake, make sure fittings are tight to the pump and away it goes.

The pump pictured above "is fully submerable".The " pedestal pump" is not . the pedestal has the impeller on the bottom of a shaft (pedestal) and the motor on top actuated by a rod attach a float ball and the water level raises the float rod and actuates the pump atop the pedestal which is not water proof . Both styles are equally reliable .

It has to be submerged fully. Trust me, I found out the hard way. I ended up having to buy a military style jerry can with a big opening to get this pump in.

Based on other feedback and reviews I have seen I would not recommend that. There is a circuit board in this pump that controls all of the various operations and I have read reviews that stated if it gets wet/damaged, the pump is not operational. I have my pump in a pool equipment shed along with the filter and heater and even with that, during the winter months I will be covering the pump in plastic to ensure it does not get wet/damp.

This is an above ground pool pump. It is not self priming. Pump head must be below the water level for it to pump.

as to my knowledge. It takes batteries and I don't think it would be submersible. If it was I think it would say more like water proof.

Yes but you cannot fully submerge the pump. This is not a "submersible pump".

Yes but the pump will need to be primed once the end of the hose is submerge prior to operating the pump.

It is, but once I stayed in the sea longer, a little bit water got in. My pump was ok. Since that time, I always put some tissue around the pump.

I'm sure it is submersible although I have mine mounted under the tank stand. The air flow control is made of metal and as a rule of thumb you should never have anything metal submersed in the water with fish as the chemical reaction with the water could poison the aquatic life.

This is a SUBMERSIBLE pump. It is kept cool by being IMMERSED in a sewage/basin tank (washer water/sewage cooled). Therefore, if you are needing a sewage pump that is stand-alone/air cooled, this is not the one for you.

What Jim said. This is not a submersible sump pump and would not handle the volume of water that would need to be removed from a sump. Plus the motor is not waterproof. If it gets wet, it will burn out.

I doubt it has the power and I'm pretty sure it shouldn't get wet. It definitely is NOT submersible. You just need a small water pump to drain the pool. I have a Little Giant submersible pump. Drains my 18000 gal. pool in a few hours.

No, they are not submersible. My little guy learned this the hard way just last week. His new one should be in the mail Friday :)"

Well the pump is a submersible pump so if you have it plugged into a place that the plug is protected from the environment I do not see why not.
