Domestic distribution systems and utility transfer applications requiring increased flow handling can integrate the Calpeda NGM 6/22 self-priming jet pump for stable shallow well operation and clean water movement. The built-in ejector arrangement supports dependable suction lift capability across irrigation systems, jet washing installations, and pressure-assisted supply networks.
Hydraulic performance reaches 47 m maximum head with flow rates extending to 9.5 m³/h, supporting rapid liquid transfer and balanced pressure delivery. The single-phase 240V induction motor is rated at 1.5 kW rated output power with operating current of 9.2 A, running near 2900 rpm to support continuous-duty circulation operation.
Internal hydraulic performance is maintained by a brass impeller paired with a Noryl PPO-GF20 diffuser and nozzle assembly, ensuring stable water movement and efficient priming operation up to 9 m suction lift. The cast iron pump casing and casing cover provide improved mechanical strength and vibration reduction during active service.
Shaft sealing is controlled by a carbon ceramic mechanical seal with NBR support materials. The single-phase motor integrates a thermal protector along with class F insulation and IP54 protection for safe operating durability. Permissible liquid temperature reaches 40°C with operating pressure capability up to 10 bar.
