Reliable liquid transport within infrastructure wet wells is provided by the Lowara Flygt NP3085.160.MT460, a unit built for steady effluent management. This rail-mounted configuration facilitates seamless integration into utility stations where handling solids-heavy media is a daily requirement. It serves as a durable solution for civil engineering projects that demand high operational uptime and resistance to clogging from long-fibered debris.
Operating at a maximum flow rate of 2250 L/Min, this 2 kW three-phase unit provides the hydraulic energy needed for medium-head requirements up to 11.5 m. The 415v induction motor is rated at 4.8 Amps, ensuring stable torque delivery during peak inflow periods. Designed to IEC 60034-1 standards, the motor supports up to 30 starts per hour for automated level-controlled systems.
Sustained efficiency is the core benefit of the Adaptive N-hydraulic system, which clearing solids dynamically through an axial movement of the impeller. By utilizing a specialized relief groove to eject debris from the vanes, the pump prevents the energy losses associated with waste buildup. This self-cleaning mechanism is essential for maintaining hydraulic performance in heavily contaminated liquids without manual intervention.
Heavy-duty GJL-250 gray cast iron forms the structural framework of the pump, offering excellent thermal dissipation and vibration damping. For motor protection, a Plug-in™ seal system with dual cemented carbide faces is integrated to create a redundant barrier against fluid ingress. The stator assembly is further protected by Class H insulation and thermal contacts that trigger a safety shutdown at 125°C.
FEATURES
- High-torque 2 kW squirrel cage induction motor with Class H insulation (180°C) for reliable continuous operation.
- Rail Mount (NP) installation type with automatic discharge coupling for simplified maintenance and deployment.
- Integrated thermal protection contacts embedded in the stator windings with a 125°C opening threshold.
- Self-cleaning Adaptive N-hydraulic technology designed to clear fibrous solids and maintain hydraulic efficiency.
- Rugged gray cast iron (GJL-250) construction for the pump body and housing providing superior structural mass.
- Precision-engineered 80 mm discharge outlet optimized for high-volume liquid transfer with minimal turbulence.
- Low-friction SUBCAB® submersible power cable with screened control cores offering enhanced chemical resistance.
- Dual-carbide Plug-in™ mechanical seal system offering a highly effective and redundant moisture barrier.
