Low-lift wastewater management in utility stations is defined by the reliable performance of the Lowara Flygt NP3085.160.MT463. This rail-mounted unit is a staple in sewage transfer applications, offering a dependable means of moving solids-laden liquids through semipermanent wet well systems. Its design focuses on maximizing uptime by preventing the hydraulic clogs that typically plague standard wastewater equipment.
Hydraulic delivery is provided by a 2 kW three-phase motor at 415v, producing a maximum flow rate of 1530 L/Min and reaching a maximum head of 5.6 m. The rated current of 4.8 Amps ensures efficient electrical performance, while the squirrel cage induction motor provides the high torque needed for solids management. The unit is designed for continuous duty and can handle up to 30 starts per hour in level-regulated systems.
Clog-free operation is achieved through the Adaptive N-hydraulic system, which utilizes a self-cleaning mechanism to maintain sustained efficiency. The impeller works in conjunction with a specialized relief groove to clear debris away from the vanes, preventing the efficiency drops associated with fibrous waste accumulation. This technology is critical for processing raw sewage containing strings and other difficult materials without interruption.
Structural stability is provided by a rugged gray cast iron frame, while a stainless steel shaft ensures high mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. The unit features a Plug-in™ seal with corrosion-resistant carbide faces to protect the internal motor assembly from fluid ingress. Integrated thermal contacts and Class H insulation (180°C) provide comprehensive safeguards for the motor during prolonged, submerged pumping cycles.
FEATURES
- Convenient Rail Mount (NP) installation allowing for quick coupling to the discharge piping system.
- Advanced Adaptive N-hydraulic system featuring self-cleaning technology for superior handling of solids.
- Robust gray cast iron (GJL-250) body construction for the pump housing and major castings.
- Internal thermal contacts with a 125°C opening temperature to safeguard the stator from thermal damage.
- Dual-carbide Plug-in™ mechanical seal system providing a highly effective barrier against liquid ingress.
- Compact 2 kW three-phase induction motor designed for reliable performance in submerged duties.
- SUBCAB® heavy-duty submersible cable offering enhanced mechanical durability and chemical protection.
- Durable 80 mm discharge connection optimized for efficient waste transfer and reduced energy loss.
