Commercial pool filtration systems requiring consistent water recirculation can utilize the Calpeda NMP 50/12F for self-priming centrifugal operation under varying suction conditions. Its hydraulic configuration is intended for circulation of clean or slightly dirty water while maintaining dependable restart capability after shutdown periods.
Flow handling capability reaches 750 L/min with maximum head extending to 12.5 m depending on hydraulic resistance within the installation. The pump is driven by a three-phase 400V motor rated at 1.1 kW and operates near 2900 rpm to maintain steady filtration circulation performance.
A chrome-plated brass impeller supports stable hydraulic movement through the filtration circuit while the self-priming arrangement enables suction lift operation up to 7 m. The integrated strainer basket incorporates 3 mm perforated openings to assist separation of suspended debris before entering the impeller chamber.
Cataphoresis-coated cast iron is utilized throughout the casing and lantern bracket assembly to improve resistance against corrosion during prolonged wet-duty operation. Mechanical sealing is controlled through carbon ceramic seal faces combined with FPM elastomer materials, while the motor assembly incorporates IPX4 protection together with class F insulation. Operating capability supports water temperatures up to 60°C with maximum working pressure up to 6 bar.
