Large residential and commercial swimming pool systems can utilize the Calpeda NMPM 32/12S for high-capacity recirculation and filtration duties where dependable self-priming operation is required. The hydraulic configuration supports circulation of clean or lightly contaminated water containing suspended particles typically present within filtration systems.
Maximum flow capacity extends to 400 L/min while discharge head reaches 23 m depending on installation conditions. Power is supplied through a 230V single-phase motor utilizing 2.1 kW input power and operating at approximately 2900 rpm for stable filtration circulation performance.
The hydraulic assembly incorporates a chrome-plated brass impeller developed for the NMPM 32/12 series to maintain smooth water movement across larger filtration circuits. Self-priming operation supports suction lift capability up to 7 m, while the integrated strainer basket with 3 mm perforations assists in limiting entry of larger suspended debris into the hydraulic section.
Cataphoresis-coated cast iron construction across the casing and lantern bracket contributes durability during prolonged wet-duty operation. Mechanical sealing is achieved through carbon ceramic seal faces with FPM elastomer support components, while the motor assembly incorporates capacitor-start operation, integrated thermal overload protection, class F insulation, and IPX4 environmental protection. Water temperatures up to 60°C and working pressures up to 6 bar are supported during service duty.
