Utility operating systems and larger-capacity liquid circulation duties can utilize the Calpeda C 41 where elevated discharge performance is required within a compact centrifugal arrangement. The open-impeller hydraulic configuration supports unrestricted liquid movement across medium-volume installations using cast iron structural components.
Maximum head reaches 22.4 m while maintaining flow capacity up to 15 m³/h, supporting increased hydraulic operation across broader circulation networks. The pump is powered through a three-phase 415V motor delivering 1.1 kW rated output power with operating current of 2.7 A and rotational speed near 2900 rpm.
Suspended particles up to 4 mm can pass through the open impeller assembly without creating excessive hydraulic restriction. Centrifugal flow characteristics maintain stable liquid handling behaviour when operating with moderately contaminated fluids under varying demand.
Mechanical rigidity is supported through cast iron manufacture of the hydraulic casing and lantern bracket assembly. Carbon ceramic mechanical seal faces combined with NBR elastomer support materials assist shaft sealing reliability, while the motor assembly provides class F insulation and IP54 enclosure protection. Operating limits accommodate liquid temperatures from -10°C to 90°C with working pressure capability up to 6 bar.
