Product Overview
Intensive water supply networks drawing from deep underground aquifers and cisterns benefit from this submersible pump, which provides the high head capability required for municipal and commercial water extraction from 4-inch boreholes. The floating impeller design supports continuous operation in demanding water supply duties.
Powered by a 240V single-phase motor rated at 1.5 kW, drawing 10.5 Amps during normal operation. Maximum flow is 22.5 L/Min with maximum head reaching 285 metres. The hydraulic performance characteristics support deep well installations where significant lift pressures are required.
Floating stack construction tolerates liquid containing up to 150 g/m³ of suspended sand. The front wear ring works with the floating impeller to improve abrasion resistance, while the hexagonal pump shaft provides effective impeller drive. An embedded stainless steel check valve prevents descending water columns when the motor stops.
Built with a 304 Stainless Steel casing and technopolymer impellers for corrosion resistance. The discharge head is manufactured from precision-cast stainless steel. The single-phase package includes the motor control box and heatshrink kit for secure electrical jointing.
