Where continuous recirculation and dependable suction recovery are important within medium-to-large swimming pool installations, the Calpeda NMP 50/12G provides stable self-priming filtration performance. The pump is suitable for clean or lightly contaminated water service where suspended particles may be present within the circulation circuit.
Maximum flow capacity extends to 750 L/min while discharge head reaches 14 m across the operating range. The hydraulic assembly is powered through a three-phase 400V motor delivering 1.5 kW output power at approximately 2900 rpm for balanced filtration and circulation operation.
Inside the pump body, water movement is maintained through a chrome-plated brass impeller matched specifically to the NMP 50/12 hydraulic geometry. The integrated self-priming arrangement supports suction lift operation up to 7 m and assists automatic hydraulic recovery following temporary interruption of suction conditions. A built-in filter basket with 3 mm perforations helps reduce entry of larger suspended debris.
The casing and lantern bracket utilize cataphoresis-coated cast iron construction for improved durability in wet operating environments. Mechanical sealing is achieved through carbon ceramic seal faces with FPM elastomer support materials, while the motor incorporates class F insulation together with IPX4 enclosure protection. The pump supports water temperatures up to 60°C with allowable working pressure up to 6 bar.
