Rapid liquid relocation for emergency pumping and industrial process handling is facilitated by the Lowara Flygt NS3102.160-MT460, a free-standing wastewater pump. This portable unit is an ideal choice for semipermanent wet well installations where a fixed rail system is not required, providing high-capacity displacement and reliable solids management. It is built to maintain high efficiency while processing liquids containing varied debris and fibers.
Driving the unit’s hydraulic performance is a 3.1 kW motor producing a maximum flow of 3150 L/Min and reaching a maximum head of 15.2 m. Drawing a rated current of 6.8 Amps at 415v, the three-phase squirrel cage motor provides the torque needed for medium-head requirements. Its induction design allows for continuous running and can manage up to 30 starts per hour, supporting high-demand automated pumping cycles.
Hydraulic stability is maintained by the Adaptive N-hydraulic system, which clearing solids dynamically from the hydraulic path via a specialized relief groove. This technology prevents clogging and ensures that the pump sustains high efficiency even when process media with high solid concentrations. By avoiding the accumulation of material around the impeller, the pump minimizes energy costs and the frequency of unplanned maintenance.
Structural integrity is provided by rugged gray cast iron used for major castings and the pump housing for superior stability. Sealing is managed by a dual mechanical Plug-in™ seal system with corrosion-resistant carbide faces to protect the internal electrical components from fluid ingress. Integrated safety features include Class H stator insulation and thermal contacts that provide an automatic shut-off if winding temperatures exceed 125°C.
FEATURES
- Free Standing (NS) installation type for versatile deployment in wet wells without fixed rail systems.
- Self-cleaning Adaptive N-hydraulic system for sustained efficiency and reliable non-clogging service.
- Energy-efficient 3.1 kW three-phase induction motor with Class H insulation rating for safe submerged duty.
- Durable gray cast iron GJL-250 construction for the housing and body castings ensuring stability.
- Integrated Plug-in™ mechanical seal with dual cemented carbide faces offering a redundant moisture barrier.
- Standardized 100 mm discharge connection optimized for high-volume liquid transfer and efficient flow.
- Thermal protection contacts embedded in the stator with a 125°C opening threshold for advanced safety.
- Rugged SUBCAB® power cable with screened control cores providing superior chemical resistance.
