Versatile deployment in effluent handling and utility transfer is facilitated by the Lowara Flygt NS3085.160.MT460, a free-standing wastewater pump. This configuration is ideal for semipermanent wet wells where a fixed rail system is not required, providing a portable solution for moving contaminated water. It is built to maintain its performance profile in diverse environments, from factory pits to utility disposal stations.
Hydraulic delivery is driven by a 2 kW three-phase motor operating at 415v, achieving a maximum head of 11.5 m and a maximum flow rate of 2250 L/Min. The motor draws a rated current of 4.8 Amps, providing stable power delivery for medium-head duties. Designed for continuous duty, the squirrel cage induction motor is capable of managing up to 30 starts per hour, making it suitable for automated level-controlled systems.
The unit features the self-cleaning Adaptive N-hydraulic system, which Clearing solids dynamically through a specialized relief groove during impeller rotation. This technology ensures that the pump sustains high efficiency even when processing media with high concentrations of fibrous materials and solids. By avoiding the clogs associated with standard hydraulic designs, the pump maintains low energy consumption and operational uptime.
Mechanical durability is provided by high-quality gray cast iron used for the major castings and housing, ensuring excellent structural strength and vibration damping. A dual mechanical Plug-in™ seal system with corrosion-resistant carbide faces provides maximum protection for the electrical assembly. Safety is further enhanced by Class H stator insulation and winding-embedded thermal contacts to prevent overheating during extended pumping tasks.
