Low-pressure water supply systems often require stable suction performance to maintain consistent delivery across residential and above-ground installations. The Calpeda NGX 2/80 combines self-priming jet pump operation with compact close-coupled construction, making it suitable for water pressure boosting, shallow-well duties, and clean water transfer applications.
A built-in ejector system assists rapid priming performance while maintaining suction lift capability up to 9 m under shallow-well operating conditions. The hydraulic configuration supports flow rates up to 53 L/Min with maximum head reaching 43 m, allowing balanced pressure delivery across washing systems, garden supply arrangements, and domestic transfer duties.
To improve operating efficiency, the pump incorporates an exclusive diffuser geometry together with an integrated flow control device that helps stabilize hydraulic movement and reduce running noise during continuous-duty operation. Internal air evacuation around the mechanical seal also assists in minimizing seal stress caused by temporary abnormal suction conditions.
AISI 304 stainless steel construction across the casing and casing cover provides corrosion resistance, while the Noryl PPO-GF20 impeller delivers lightweight hydraulic efficiency. The close-coupled pump configuration simplifies installation requirements, and the three-phase 415V motor delivering 0.55 kW rated output power with IP54 protection and Class F insulation supports dependable continuous-duty operation.
