How does the stainless alloy construction defend against water corrosion and particulate erosion?
Long-term durability against corrosion and particulate erosion relies on AISI 304 stainless steel casing and impeller, with Technopolymer PA66+GF30 built-in ejector in the BGM5, supporting operating pressures up to 8 bar (PN 8).
What motor kilowatt rating and electrical voltage are required to run this single-phase unit?
Operating the motor on the BGM-5 requires a 0.55 kW electrical feed on 220–240 V, 50 Hz, single-phase drawing 3.79 A, built with IP55 weatherproof motor enclosure with automatic reset thermal overload protection.
What horizontal mounting placement is advised for this residential unit with its integrated ejector?
Surface placement on a level horizontal base is recommended for the BGM 5, where its integrated venturi ejector manages entrained air pockets.
How high can this single-stage jet pump elevate clean water across domestic runs?
Elevating clean water across domestic runs, the BGM_5 provides a peak dynamic head rating of approximately 41.5 m.
What delivery flow rate can this domestic self-priming pump provide through its discharge port?
Supplying clean water distribution, the BGM5 generates a maximum delivery flow of approximately 70 L/Min with Rp 1-1/4" (32 mm) suction and Rp 1" (25 mm) discharge threads.
