Large scale aquatic processing centers frequently encounter extreme mechanical strain during the continuous transfer of heavily contaminated media. Engineered to dominate these parameters, the Grundfos SE1.100.100.40.4.50B.B is a highly formidable non-self-priming, single-stage, centrifugal pump designed for handling wastewater, process water and unscreened raw sewage.
The immensely rigid cast iron structural framework acts as an impenetrable containment vessel against the highly corrosive liquid contaminants routinely present in deep flooded pits. By successfully deflecting the violent physical shocks associated with rapid internal pressure changes, this dense housing firmly prevents microscopic warping to reliably secure the geometric alignment of the internal rotating assembly.
Smooth hydrodynamic stability within the primary extraction volute is flawlessly achieved utilizing advanced S-TUBE impeller technology, accelerating dense media without sudden structural jamming. Powered by an energetic 4 kW drive directly wired to a strict 3-phase 415v electrical network, the unit achieves an impressive maximum head of approximately 11.1 m and shifts an approximate flow of 3816 L/Min via 150x100 mm ports.
Drastically reducing the strict requirement for active daily supervision, a sophisticated liquidless maintenance-free cooling network autonomously regulates internal core temperatures for safe continuous submerged or completely dry deployments. An intuitive stainless-steel clamp assembling framework ensures the complete motor unit can be rapidly detached for necessary field inspection without complex toolsets.
Features
- Engineered with an advanced IP68 ingress protection enclosure to block catastrophic moisture penetration from flooded pits.
- Certified for extreme deep-pit deployment featuring a verified maximum submerged installation depth measuring exactly 12 m.
- Integrates a durable 15 m Lyniflex power cable structure to comfortably reach distant industrial grid hookup boxes.
- Protects vital internal winding layers through the strict implementation of a premium Class F electrical insulation standard.
- Manufactured with a heavy solid foundational unit weight measuring exactly 176 kg to drastically diminish active vibration.
- Rated to reliably operate internal shaft rotations at an exact operational speed of 1460 rpm under peak mechanical conditions.
- Designed to safely perform up to 20 maximum mechanical starts per hour to optimize intense commercial fluid extraction cycles.
