Specialized industrial applications, such as bottle washing and contaminated liquid transport, benefit from the robust design of the Lowara Flygt NP3085.160.SH255. This rail-mounted sewage pump is engineered to handle liquids with high solid content and varying pH levels in difficult service duties. It provides a stable and efficient solution for facilities requiring consistent high-lift disposal and minimal manual intervention.
The model is powered by an efficient 2.4 kW three-phase motor producing a maximum head of 20 m and a maximum flow rate of 1110 L/Min. Drawing a rated current of 4.8 Amps at 415v, the squirrel cage motor delivers the torque required for managing challenging waste media. Built for continuous operation, the induction motor features high-grade insulation to maintain performance during peak thermal loading periods.
At the core of this pump is the Adaptive N-hydraulic system, which provides non-clogging performance through a self-cleaning impeller design. By utilizing a relief groove that clearing fibrous debris during rotation, the pump prevents the buildup of materials that could lead to efficiency loss or motor overload. This technology is essential for maintaining sustained hydraulic stability in wastewater containing significant solid debris.
Construction features high-density gray cast iron for the pump body and major castings, ensuring structural integrity and vibration control in submerged installations. A Plug-in™ mechanical seal with dual cemented carbide faces provides superior motor protection against fluid ingress. Winding safety is reinforced by Class H insulation (180°C) and integrated thermal contacts that protect the assembly from thermal damage during prolonged pumping cycles.
FEATURES
- Efficient 2.4 kW three-phase squirrel cage motor designed for high-torque performance in super-head duties.
- Adaptive N-hydraulic hydraulic system for self-cleaning operation and superior management of fibers.
- NP Rail Mount configuration for simplified installation on guide bars with an automatic coupling mechanism.
