Large swimming pool filtration systems requiring dependable recirculation capacity can integrate the Calpeda NMP 65/12E for self-priming clean water circulation duties. The pump is intended for continuous filtration service where suspended debris may be present within the water stream and stable suction recovery is important after shutdown conditions.
Flow capacity reaches up to 1200 L/min with maximum head extending to 10 m depending on installation resistance and operating conditions. Hydraulic performance is supported by a three-phase 400V induction motor rated at 1.5 kW operating at approximately 2900 rpm for balanced large-volume circulation duty.
The hydraulic section incorporates a chrome-plated brass impeller specifically matched to the NMP 65/12 pump configuration. Self-priming operation supports suction lift capability up to 7 m, while the integrated strainer basket with 3 mm perforated openings assists filtration by limiting larger suspended particles from entering the impeller chamber.
Cataphoresis-coated cast iron construction is used for the casing and lantern bracket to improve durability in wet operating environments commonly associated with filtration equipment. Mechanical sealing is achieved through carbon ceramic seal faces with FPM elastomer components, while the motor assembly incorporates class F insulation together with IPX4 enclosure protection. The pump supports water temperatures up to 60°C with maximum permissible working pressure up to 6 bar.
