Utility pits requiring high-flow evacuation and large-scale drainage utilize the Lowara Flygt NP3102.160-LT420 for its massive liquid displacement capability. This rail-mounted wastewater pump is designed for low-head applications where moving high volumes of contaminated water is the primary requirement. It provides a robust and dependable solution for infrastructure sites and industrial facility managers needing rapid dewatering.
Powered by a 3.1 kW motor at 415v, this high-flow model delivers an impressive maximum capacity of 4260 L/Min and reaches a maximum head of 11.5 m. The three-phase electrical configuration ensures a rated current of 6.8 Amps, providing the torque required for heavy-duty solids handling. The motor is built to IEC standards for continuous submerged operation, ensuring compatibility with demanding industrial duty cycles.
Efficiency remains optimized through the Adaptive N-hydraulic system, which clears solids dynamically from the hydraulic path during rotation. By using a relief groove to eject debris from the impeller vanes, the pump avoids the efficiency losses and motor overloads common in standard wastewater pumps. This self-cleaning action is critical for maintaining peak performance in liquids containing raw sewage and storm water debris.
Construction features a heavy-duty gray cast iron housing and body to provide excellent mechanical stability and thermal management. Sealing is managed by a Plug-in™ system with corrosion-resistant cemented carbide faces to protect the motor from moisture ingress. Winding safety is reinforced by Class H stator insulation and integrated thermal contacts that provide an automatic safety shut-off if temperatures exceed 125°C.
FEATURES
- High-flow Adaptive N-hydraulic system with self-cleaning capabilities for non-clogging performance.
- Rail Mount (NP) installation type for simplified deployment and automatic connection to discharge piping.
- Powerful 3.1 kW three-phase induction motor with Class H insulation rating for reliable continuous service.
- Advanced Plug-in™ mechanical seal design with dual cemented carbide faces providing maximum motor protection.
