Severe excavation and mining operations demand uncompromising hydraulic dominance to prevent site flooding. Representing the pinnacle of extraction, the DT220KZN is a proven performer pumping muddy liquids and slurries. It delivers definitive ground and nuisance water removal to stabilize expansive dam walls and industrial projects.
Utilizing a massive 22.0 kW motor on a 415v three-phase supply, the unit draws a formidable 45.5 Amps under heavy duty loading. Generating immense velocity, it achieves an approximate maximum flow rate of 5800 L/Min, ejecting abrasive water through a 150 mm discharge port. It maintains an approximate maximum head of 31.5 metres.
Extreme fluid densities are managed by a high chrome multivane impeller rated for solid concentrations up to 70 percent by weight. An integrated heavy duty high chrome agitator vigorously disrupts the intake zone, causing packed solids to move in suspension. This ensures the flow chamber smoothly passes 35 mm solids without clogging.
Total casing resilience is guaranteed through FCD450 hardened ductile iron, rated twice as abrasive resistant as standard ductile cast iron. The core assembly features a 410 stainless steel shaft supported by a high chrome iron suction cover. Rated IP68 for 15 metre submersion, the system safely manages 40 degree Celsius liquids.
FEATURES
- Top mounted discharge infrastructure acts as a motor water jacket, permitting operations within inches of the bottom without the risk of overheating.
- Compact architectural slimline profile vastly reduces overall handling difficulty and minimizes the chance of damage to the outlet in transit.
- Hardened surface on the replaceable wear plate limits internal suction side erosion that could cause a reduction in pump performance.
- Total motor protection is strictly maintained by double silicon carbide mechanical seals operating exclusively inside a separate oil chamber.
- Heavy duty nitrile lip seal effectively fortifies the lower rotational assembly against the relentless ingress of abrasive sand.
- Inexpensive stainless steel shaft sleeves gracefully absorb relentless frictional forces, directly saving on long term shaft wear.
- Oversized large open strainer provides a massive physical shield to protect the impeller from larger solids entering the pump.
- Heavy duty lifting rings guarantee absolute balance and structural safety for easy lifting and transportation.
