Product Overview
Dockyards and seafood processors with 415 V on tap standardise washdown and transfer on this three-phase 3-inch bronze pump, holding up to 840 litres a minute in reserve for tank stripping and floor flooding recovery. The IP55 motor shrugs off daily hosing. Three-phase operators order the 3-inch unit as GB3KQA/B2.2K3PS2 for 415 V distribution.
Performance peaks at 840 L/min open flow with shut-off at 16 m (23 PSI) of head. Mil-Spec equivalent cast nickel-aluminium bronze forms the casing and large open impeller, digesting 27 mm solids, sealed by carbon on alumina with nitrile rubber in a 316 stainless casing.
A 415 V three-phase supply feeds the 2.2 kW IP55 motor directly, its washdown-rated enclosure shrugging off daily hosing in dockyards and processing halls. The 3-inch waterways self-prime from 6 m, and abrasion lands on the bolt-on suction cover rather than the volute.
Deck washdown, bilge pump-out, salvage pumping and marine air conditioning are the rated applications for this configuration. It supports the everyday movement of water around boat decks and machinery spaces, while also covering bilge clearing and emergency salvage work when conditions demand it. Where Viton seals are specified, AdBlue and chemical transfer are also within the listed application range.
Features
- The 415 V three-phase 2.2 kW drive with IP55 washdown rating thrives in dockyards and processing halls.

How many litres per minute and vertical metres can this wet end deliver across open site lines?
Discharge performance for the Aussie Pumps Bronze Electric Transfer B3KQ-A/B (GB3KQA-B2.2K3PS2) yields an open flow volume of approximately 840 L/min and reaches a maximum shut-off elevation of approximately 16 m.
What size spherical solids can pass through the impeller without creating clogs across high volume transfer lines?
The open nickel-aluminium bronze impeller on the GB3KQA B2.2K3PS2 allows spherical solids up to 27 mm in diameter to pass freely without choking internal water passages.
How is site electricity connected to run this electric pump package without requiring phase converters?
Direct electrical drive on the GB3KQA/B2.2K3PS2 features a motor rated at 2.2 kW 415V 3-Phase, built for steady site connection.
How deep can this self priming pump draw water from underground sumps during everyday operations?
Built-in priming passages on the GB3KQA/B2.2K3PS2 draw fluid vertically from depths up to 6 m without requiring an external foot valve once the casing is filled.
Why is nickel aluminium bronze specified for marine washdown and vessel dewatering duties without suffering pitting corrosion?
Seawater corrosion resistance on the B3KQ-A/B (GB3KQA/B2.2K3PS2) is achieved through cast nickel-aluminium bronze construction across the volute and impeller.
