Premium EN 1561 EN-GJL-250 cast iron forms the impenetrable exterior of the SL1.80.100.240.2.52S.N.51D.A.T, making it extremely resilient to aggressive submersed wear. Featuring a heavy-duty 100 mm outlet, this rugged wastewater asset secures long-term structural integrity for commercial treatment plants and raw water intake stations.
Buried within this thick iron housing is a dynamically balanced S-Tube impeller enforcing a strict 80 mm free passage. This crucial clearance enables the processing of solid-heavy municipal sewage without any mechanical hesitation. By neutralizing blockage risks at the primary fluid layer, the system maintains continuous circulation.
Driving its capabilities is a huge 24 kW Grundfos motor tethered to a reliable 415v three-phase grid. This 2-pole system outputs a staggering maximum head of approximately 48.5 m alongside 3366 L/Min flow capacities. Internal velocity paths efficiently harness this power, delivering robust thermodynamic stability during transfer cycles.
Solidifying its commercial profile, the unit integrates highly sensitive moisture sensors and active motor-protection thermistors. These components track the sealed motor cavity, providing real-time defense against submersed breaches or thermal overloads. This native protection grants facility operators absolute peace of mind.
Features
- Utilizes a state-of-the-art cable entry connector that allows the fifteen-meter power cord to be fully disconnected without removing the upper motor casing.
- Features an easily accessible double shaft seal configured in a cartridge design, permitting rapid maintenance interventions without heavy specialized equipment.
- Manufactured with a durable secondary shaft seal built from an ultra-tough silicon carbide and carbon friction material configuration to protect the internal core.
- Built using premium EN 1561 EN-GJL-250 cast iron across the main pump housing to ensure maximum mechanical resilience in flooded environments.
- Designed to seamlessly process fluid loads continuously at temperature ranges from ten to forty degrees Celsius within permanent municipal installations.
- Engineered to safely endure a maximum continuous installation depth of twenty meters while preserving an absolute eight bar operating pressure tolerance.
