Aquifer extraction tasks for municipal water supply and irrigation sectors are facilitated by the Z895-02/2A-3S submersible pump. This model features a 316 Stainless Steel motor and is part of the Lowara Z895 series, offering high-volume lifting for distribution. It is suitable for vertical borehole installation or horizontal deployment in reservoirs provided the motor is situated at the lowest point.
Manufactured from cast 304 Stainless Steel, the suction support and diffusers handle aggressive groundwater environments. The two reduced diameter impellers are designed to process liquids containing suspended sand up to 100 g/m³ without structural degradation. The unit weighs 94.2 kg and operates in liquids reaching a maximum temperature of 25°C.
The 15 kW motor operates on a 415v supply with a rated current of 32.1 Amps for deep-well duty. It achieves a maximum total head of 45.6 m and a maximum flow rate of 1966.7 L/Min through a semi-axial hydraulic arrangement. These specifications enable dedicated groundwater management for recreational complexes and industrial cooling tower supply systems.
Thermal protection is provided by Class F insulation with an IP68 rating for submerged borehole service. The pump supports installation depths up to 350 meters and features double mechanical shaft seals for containment. Internal technopolymer POM-C wear rings and EPDM 70 bearing bushes provide hydraulic stability and support the duplex stainless steel shaft during rotation.
Features
- Mechanical connection of the 8-inch motor follows NEMA standards to allow for compatibility with industrial systems.
- The integrated non-return valve features a stainless steel spring to prevent liquid backflow and water hammer.
- A stainless steel suction strainer is fitted to exclude large solid particles from entering the hydraulic stages.
- EPDM 70 bearing bushes support the pump shaft assembly and handle the mechanical loads during rotation.
- Stainless steel cable covers provide mechanical protection for the power leads along the pump casing.
- Internal technopolymer POM-C wear rings maintain hydraulic clearances and reduce internal friction.
- A duplex stainless steel taperlock system secures the semi-axial impellers to the shaft for torque transfer.
