High-pressure shallow well extraction and clean water transfer duties can be handled efficiently by the Calpeda NG 7/16 self-priming jet pump. The integrated ejector arrangement supports dependable suction operation for irrigation distribution, elevated water supply systems, and utility jet washing applications where stable pressure delivery is essential.
Hydraulic performance reaches 89 m maximum head with flow capacity extending to 4 m³/h, making the unit suitable for installations requiring strong vertical pressure capability with controlled discharge volume. The three-phase 400V induction motor delivers 2.2 kW rated output power with operating current of 5.3 A while maintaining approximately 2900 rpm operating speed for continuous-duty service.
Liquid movement is controlled through a brass impeller arrangement engineered for stable hydraulic efficiency during clean water circulation. The self-priming jet system maintains suction assistance during varying operating cycles while Noryl diffuser and nozzle components support balanced flow acceleration and controlled hydraulic behaviour.
Construction incorporates cast iron hydraulic components including the pump casing, casing cover, and diffuser plate to maintain rigidity under elevated operating pressure conditions. Mechanical sealing is achieved through a carbon ceramic seal with NBR elastomer support elements, while the motor assembly utilizes class F insulation with IP54 protection. Operating capability supports liquid temperatures up to 40°C and working pressures up to 10 bar.
