Medium-capacity utility circulation duties requiring moderate-pressure liquid movement can integrate the Calpeda C 4 for handling emulsions and lightly contaminated fluids. Its cast iron centrifugal open-impeller configuration supports stable liquid passage while maintaining mechanical rigidity across demanding operating installations.
Hydraulic capability extends to 15 m³/h maximum flow with head performance reaching 17.7 m, supporting balanced discharge characteristics across circulation systems. Operation is supplied through a three-phase 415V induction motor delivering 0.75 kW rated output power with operating current of 2.2 A at approximately 2900 rpm.
Suspended particles up to 4 mm are accommodated within the hydraulic flow section through the open impeller arrangement without excessive restriction. The centrifugal liquid path supports dependable transfer behaviour for moderately contaminated fluids during varying operating demand.
Mechanical durability is provided by cast iron casing and lantern bracket construction designed for operational stability during service duty. G 1 1/2 threaded inlet and outlet connections assist integration into medium-size piping arrangements, while the combined motor and hydraulic assembly maintains a compact overall installation profile.
