Transferring high-purity fluids across industrial cooling architectures requires the chemical resilience found in this AISI 316 stainless steel assembly. Its construction minimizes contact with localized contaminants, ensuring that process water or treated liquids maintain consistent quality standards during transit. Suction and delivery interfaces utilize standardized 25mm connections to integrate into existing pipework configurations without the need for extensive hydraulic modifications.
Operational threshold limits are defined by a Max Head of approximately 50 m alongside a Max Flow of approximately 73 L/Min. This centrifugal pump architecture draws a maximum power of 0.85 kW / 240v, sustaining performance throughout continuous cycle applications. System throughput remains consistent under normal load, supported by internal fluid path geometries tuned for efficiency within the e-HM series operational range.
Fluid dynamics are governed by a multistage impeller arrangement engineered to provide progressive pressure elevation across the assembly. Each stage transitions liquid energy through the AISI 316L stainless steel chambers, mitigating internal cavitation risks while maintaining stable circulation profiles. The mechanical design focuses on minimizing turbulence at the transition points between each stage, ensuring a predictable discharge output at high pressure settings.
Housing consists of a TIG-welded external sleeve design, typical of the e-HM sleeve configuration for mid-stage count units, paired with a TEFC electric motor. This enclosure achieves an IP55 protection rating, shielding the motor core from external moisture and airborne particulate intrusion. The unit relies on robust tie-rod mechanical retention to maintain seal integrity across the pump body during thermal expansion and contraction cycles.
Features:
- TEFC motor design featuring IP55 ingress protection
- Internal surfaces composed of corrosion-resistant AISI 316L steel
- TIG-welded external sleeve structural alignment
- Certified for compatibility with potable water systems
- Asynchronous 2-pole motor operating at 2900 rpm
- Synthetic EPDM elastomer sealing components included
