Wastewater collection pits and municipal infrastructure require a specialized hydraulic solution like the SEV.80.100.60.2.50B for reliable liquid handling. This submersible pump is intended for the removal of contaminated grey water and sewage with a pH value between 4 and 10. The system addresses environmental demands by providing reliable solids passage in liquids with temperatures up to 40°C. This unit maintains consistent performance in both dry and submerged installations where reliable wastewater transfer and effluent pumping are required for service.
Hydraulic behavior is driven by a 6 kW motor operating on a 415v three-phase supply with a rated current of 13.4 Amps. This model achieves a maximum flow of 1602 L/Min and reaches a maximum head of 25.4 m to satisfy elevation requirements in pressurized sewer mains. The motor operates at 2945 rpm, maintaining torque and hydraulic stability during continuous duty cycles. Electrical connection is established via a 15-metre Lyniflex power cable, facilitating distribution for drainage stations and treatment plant transfer duties through a DN 100 outlet.
Internal fluid paths utilize a SuperVortex impeller configuration designed for the free passage of solids up to 80 mm in diameter. This centrifugal configuration handles sewage and grey water in suspension, preventing internal clogging that could compromise volumetric throughput over long-term service. By utilizing a vortex flow path, the unit minimizes internal wear and vibration for the rotating assembly during prolonged discharge. The impeller is intended for wastewater transfer in municipal and industrial wastewater handling applications.
Mechanical construction features a cast iron housing and motor shell with an IP68 enclosure rating for protection against liquid ingress. Longevity is anchored by a double mechanical shaft seal arrangement with a SiC/SiC primary seal and a CER/CARNBR secondary seal in an oil bath. This unit includes an internal thermal sensor for motor monitoring and protection in wastewater environments. The architectural casting features a DN 80 inlet connection for integration into standard wastewater infrastructure and municipal collection systems.
Features
- SuperVortex impeller design handles solids up to 80 mm without risk of internal blockages during wastewater disposal.
- Cast iron pump housing and motor shell provide a stable foundation for dry or submerged pit installations.
- Double mechanical shaft seal in an oil bath with silicon carbide faces ensures protection for the 6 kW motor.
- Maximum head performance of 25.4 m supports wastewater discharge in municipal and treatment plant applications.
- DN 80 inlet and DN 100 outlet connections are sized for wastewater transfer through standard networks.
- IP68 enclosure rating ensures the motor remains protected during permanent immersion in contaminated liquids.
- Lyniflex 15-metre power cable provides a secure electrical connection for three-phase 415v wastewater service.
