Confronting extreme operational load challenges in pressurised sewage systems requires uncompromising mechanical resilience. The Grundfos UNILIFT APG 40 10 1 single-stage submersible pumps, designed for pumping domestic wastewater in pressurised systems, provide robust processing capabilities. Facilities processing toilet blackwater benefit from the professional grinder system that cuts solids into smaller pieces. This cutting action significantly reduces pipe blockages while facilitating efficient fluid transport.
The structural architecture focuses on absolute durability. Constructed with an airtight odour-proof collecting tank compatibility framework, the unit mitigates gaseous leaks within basement installations. The heavy-duty cast-iron pump housing resists abrasive wear while the stainless steel upper casing protects electrical components.
Internal performance metrics dictate a stable fluid transfer regime. Generating a maximum head of approximately 26 meters, the pump drives a peak flow rate of 210 L/Min through its 40 mm discharge outlet. The single phase 240v power configuration operates at 5.7 Amps, ensuring strong torque delivery. Advanced mechanical shaft seals and a lightweight motor concept prevent thermal overloads.
Operating in liquid temperatures up to 40°C, the unit fits onto several auto couplings for rapid deployment. The semi open vortex impeller prevents fibrous material accumulation. By allowing smaller discharge pipes, the system cuts installation time across domestic infrastructures.
Features
- Manufactured with a heavy-duty cast-iron housing base for enhanced abrasion resistance against solid particles
- Utilizes a semi open vortex impeller to maintain internal flow stability during extreme pressurised transfer cycles
- Equipped with an advanced mechanical shaft seal assembly to protect the lightweight motor from ingress
- Supports direct integration with airtight odour-proof collecting tanks to prevent gaseous leaks in basements
- Compatible with multiple auto coupling formats including DN32 and DN40 flanged pipe connections
- Weighs exactly 25 kg to allow straightforward handling and positioning without requiring extra lifting devices
