Engineered for compact high-pressure liquid handling duties, the Calpeda TP 78 peripheral electropump is suitable for boiler feed applications, pressure support systems, controlled circulation duties, and clean liquid transfer installations requiring elevated hydraulic head performance. Its peripheral pumping configuration is optimized for applications where strong pressure generation is required within compact installation layouts.
The three-phase 400V motor delivers 0.37 kW rated output power while producing operating head up to 75 metres with flow performance reaching 16.6 L/Min. This pressure-oriented hydraulic characteristic makes the TP 78 particularly suitable for compact boiler feed systems, pressure transfer arrangements, technical circulation loops, and utility liquid handling applications operating under elevated head conditions.
A precision-machined Brass CW617N EN 12167 impeller operates within the peripheral hydraulic stage to maintain stable pressure behaviour relative to pump dimensions. The close-coupled electropump structure also supports simplified installation inside technical equipment layouts, compact circulation assemblies, pressure support systems, and controlled industrial utility arrangements.
The hydraulic body assembly incorporates Cast Iron GJL 200 EN 1561 construction across the pump casing, lantern bracket, and casing cover for dependable structural durability during continuous-duty operation. A Steel 1.4104 EN 10088 (AISI 430F) shaft works together with a Carbon-Ceramic-NBR mechanical seal arrangement while the 2-pole induction motor operates near 2900 rpm with IP54 protection and Class F insulation.
The pump is suitable for clean liquids without abrasive particles, suspended solids, or aggressive substances incompatible with hydraulic materials. Its compact high-head configuration supports stable pressure performance across technical circulation and boiler feed applications.
