The Calpeda GQG6-25 is a heavy-duty submersible grinder wastewater pump designed for pumping sewage, effluent and wastewater containing solids and fibrous material. Engineered for demanding residential, commercial and light industrial applications, the pump incorporates a high-performance grinding system that macerates solids into fine particles to enable reliable discharge through small diameter pipelines.
Constructed with robust materials for submerged operation, the GQG6-25 is ideal for septic systems, pressure sewer networks, basement drainage and installations where gravity discharge is not available. The grinder mechanism significantly reduces the risk of clogging and blockage, ensuring dependable performance even in challenging wastewater conditions.
Powered by a durable electric motor, the pump delivers strong lifting capability for transferring wastewater to elevated discharge points. Thermal overload protection safeguards the motor from overheating, while a double mechanical seal protects against water ingress and extends service life during continuous duty operation.
Supplied with a 15 metre power cable, the pump is suitable for deep pit installations and remote control panels. Designed for handling raw sewage and contaminated water containing organic solids, the GQG6-25 provides a reliable solution for wastewater management systems requiring grinding capability and high head performance.
