Its centrifugal open-impeller arrangement suits smaller utility applications operating within limited installation space while maintaining dependable liquid passage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHydraulic capability reaches 2.4 m³\/h maximum flow with discharge head extending to 5 m, supporting controlled low-pressure liquid movement through compact piping systems. The pump operates through a 230V single-phase induction motor utilizing 0.29 kW maximum input power with operating current of 1.2 A while maintaining rotational speed near 2900 rpm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInside the hydraulic section, the open impeller arrangement supports passage of suspended particles up to 4 mm without creating excessive internal restriction. The centrifugal flow path assists smooth circulation behaviour for lightly contaminated liquids and emulsions during varying operating conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBronze manufacture across the hydraulic casing and wetted sections contributes corrosion resistance during operating service. Carbon ceramic mechanical seal faces combined with NBR elastomer support components assist shaft sealing reliability, while the motor assembly incorporates capacitor-start operation, built-in thermal protection, IP54 enclosure protection, and class F insulation. Operating capability supports liquid temperatures from -10°C to 90°C with permissible working pressure up to 6 bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eFEATURES\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBronze hydraulic structure supporting corrosion-resistant liquid handling duties\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen impeller geometry assisting suspended particle passage up to 4 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact centrifugal arrangement suited to confined installation environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-phase 230V induction motor operating near 2900 rpm rotational speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated capacitor-start motor configuration with thermal protection system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon ceramic mechanical seal assembly with NBR elastomer support materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClass F insulated motor enclosure with IP54 environmental protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClose-coupled pump layout reducing installation alignment complexity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Calpeda","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50773059698935,"sku":"BCM 16\/1","price":1544.62,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/0116\/3767\/files\/calpeda-bcm-16-1-bronze-continuous-duty-centrifugal-pump-for-emulsion-service-with-open-impeller.png?v=1778649431","url":"https:\/\/foundationpumps.com.au\/products\/calpeda-bcm-16-1-bronze-continuous-duty-centrifugal-pump-for-emulsion-service-with-open-impeller","provider":"Foundation Pumps","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
