The Davey DT15G is a premier three-phase grinder pump engineered for massive waste water transfer in commercial and industrial complexes. This 1.5 kW unit is designed to process thick organic solids and sanitary products using a heavy-duty shredding ring before disposing of the slurry through pressurized networks. By utilizing a 415v supply, the assembly provides the torque necessary for continuous high-head pumping in large-scale sewage systems. Its architectural cast iron casting provides extreme material durability for prolonged immersion in aggressive effluent.
Generating an impressive maximum flow of 220 L/Min and a maximum head of 26.5 metres, this model provides industrial-grade performance for factory sumps and septic pits. The three-phase motor operates with a 3.0 Amps full load current, ensuring energy-efficient operation during large-scale water transfer tasks. This performance profile is designed to maintain hydraulic stability when clearing deep pits through the 1 1/2" BSP F discharge port. The 2900rpm synchronous speed ensures the shredding mechanism remains effective against tough textiles.
The hydraulic system utilizes a 316 stainless steel motor shell and a cast iron open impeller configuration designed to handle soft solids in suspension. This centrifugal design prevents the blockages typically associated with high-volume sewage discharge, allowing for a consistent flow of macerated slurry. The high chromium steel grinding ring ensures that all debris is processed to a fine slurry, protecting the downstream pipe network. By maintaining hydraulic balance, the unit reduces internal vibration and extends the service life of the mechanical components.
Mechanical security is reinforced by a double mechanical shaft seal in an oil bath and a sand slinger lip seal to protect the electrical heart. For operational longevity, the unit includes an internal automatic resetting thermal overload and a 10-metre HO7RN-F oil-resistant lead. The assembly features integrated seal sensor leads for professional termination in three-phase control panels and rubber-cushioned mounting feet for silent operation. The system is fully repairable and designed for low-maintenance service in demanding factory waste environments.
