Product Overview
Fire protection systems requiring substantial water from 4-inch deep reserves are the focus of this submersible pump, serving critical infrastructure safety where consistent high-flow delivery is essential. The floating impeller configuration supports continuous operation in groundwater containing suspended solids.
Operating on a 240V single-phase supply, the 1.1 kW motor draws 7.6 Amps during normal duty. Maximum flow reaches 140 L/Min with maximum head of 51 metres. The hydraulic performance supports fire protection system requirements effectively.
Floating internal design permits the pump to handle water containing up to 150 g/m³ of suspended sand. The front wear ring works in conjunction with the floating impeller to improve abrasion resistance, while the hexagonal shaft ensures effective impeller drive. A non-return valve locks the vertical water column on shutdown.
Manufactured with a 304 Stainless Steel casing and technopolymer hydraulic components. The discharge head is precision-cast stainless steel. Supplied with the starting control box and heatshrink kit for waterproof cable connections.
