A 230-litre collection capacity is provided by the corrosion-resistant polyethylene tank, which serves as a large vessel for underground or surface use. Motor protection is achieved through a double mechanical shaft seal with an integrated oil chamber containing oil suitable for food and pharmaceutical machinery. The 2-pole induction motor features a triple impregnation humidity-proof winding for long-term electrical reliability.
Lifting domestic and civil clean or waste water effectively is the primary function of this 230L nominal capacity station. It is designed for large-volume collection where high storage capacity is required before automated discharge to sewer mains. The system handles effluents with suspended solids up to 10 mm and operates reliably at liquid temperatures up to 35°C in a fixed installation.
The 0.25 kW single-phase motor delivers flow rates up to 170 L/min and achieves a maximum head of 8.3 m. Drawing a rated current of 2.5 Amps, internal cooling is provided by the pumped liquid circulating through the external jacket. This self-cooling capability facilitates safe operation during extended drainage run cycles in a vertical position.
Water lifting is managed by an open impeller submersible pump manufactured from chrome-nickel stainless steel. The vertical discharge configuration simplifies connection within the large tank, while the integrated filter prevents oversized debris from entering the suction stages. This design ensures consistent flow behavior during civil wastewater collection and transfer tasks.
