The Calpeda CTM 60 is a single-phase peripheral close-coupled pump engineered for clean water systems, domestic pressure support, small cooling arrangements, and utility liquid circulation. Designed to handle continuous-duty applications where installation space is restricted, the pump combines a compact footprint with pressure-focused hydraulic capabilities.
Operating with a 240V single-phase motor delivering 0.3 kW rated output power, the pump achieves head up to 41 metres and flow performance up to 38.3 L/Min. This hydraulic characteristic makes the CTM 60 suitable for applications requiring strong vertical pressure delivery alongside moderate liquid transfer requirements.
The peripheral hydraulic configuration includes a Brass CW617N EN 12167 impeller designed to maintain stable pressure generation. By using a peripheral pumping section, the system efficiently handles pressure support duties without the large physical dimensions required by standard centrifugal pumps.
Structural durability is supported by a Cast Iron GJL 200 EN 1561 pump casing and a Steel 1.4104 EN 10088 (AISI 430F) shaft. The single-phase motor incorporates a built-in thermal protector, IP54 motor protection, and Class F insulation. A Carbon-Ceramic-NBR mechanical seal arrangement maintains continuous sealing reliability.
