Grit handling and high-pressure waste management tasks utilize the Lowara Flygt NP3102.160-SH255 for its exceptional super-head performance. This rail-mounted sewage pump is built for demanding high-lift evacuation duties in utility and industrial wet wells. It provides a robust solution for moving contaminated liquids against significant elevation, where hydraulic pressure is a critical factor for system integrity.
Powered by a powerful 4.2 kW motor at 415v, the pump delivers a maximum head of 31 m and a maximum flow rate of 1830 L/Min. With a rated current of 8.2 Amps, the three-phase induction motor is designed for heavy-duty service and can handle up to 30 starts per hour. This performance profile is ideal for automated stations requiring consistent high-torque delivery for high-pressure sewage transport.
At the core of the design is the self-cleaning Adaptive N-hydraulic system, which clearing abrasive solids dynamically through a relief groove technology. This mechanism ensures that the pump remains clog-free while maintaining sustained hydraulic efficiency even in grit-heavy media. By preventing the buildup of material around the impeller, the pump avoids energy losses and significantly reduces the frequency of unplanned maintenance.
Construction features rugged gray cast iron major castings and pump housing for superior structural mass and thermal management. A Plug-in™ mechanical seal with dual cemented carbide faces providing maximum motor protection against high-pressure fluid ingress. Motor safety is reinforced by Class H stator insulation and internal thermal contacts that trigger a shutdown if temperatures reach the 125°C safety limit.
FEATURES
- Super-head Adaptive N-hydraulic system with self-cleaning technology for superior ????????? of grit.
- Efficient 4.2 kW three-phase squirrel cage motor designed for high-torque performance in high-lift duty.
- NP Rail Mount configuration for simplified installation on guide bars with an automatic coupling mechanism.
- Heavy-duty gray cast iron (GJL-250) construction for the housing ensuring long-term mechanical reliability.
- Winding-embedded thermal contacts with a 125°C opening threshold to protect against stator overload.
- Dual-carbide Plug-in™ mechanical seal system providing a highly effective and redundant seal barrier.
- Standardized 80 mm discharge outlet optimized for high-pressure flow and efficient transfer.
- Abrasion-resistant SUBCAB® power cable offering superior mechanical strength and chemical compatibility.
