The Onga 142 is a high-performance composite centrifugal pump configured for commercial reticulation; horticultural watering; and rural water supply. This specialist transfer unit is suited to high-flow garden irrigation; wash-down setups; and hydroponic greenhouse circulation.
Hydraulic operation is driven by a 1.8 kW three-phase 415v motor that draws 3.3 Amps. The system achieves a maximum head of 34 m and delivers high-volume water flows up to 406 L/Min.
An award-winning Hi-Flo polycarbonate impeller design provides excellent pressure delivery and improved hydraulic efficiency to maintain lower overall operating costs. It utilizes a corrosion-resistant composite casing manufactured from glass-filled Noryl.
The motor incorporates IP44 ingress protection with insulation class B to withstand harsh outdoor installation conditions. Standardized connections consist of 40 mm BSP male threads on the suction and discharge ports.
