The Onga 182 is a heavy-duty cast iron centrifugal water transfer pump configured for commercial wash-down; agricultural crop irrigation; and municipal circulation. Its extremely rigid structure is designed to function reliably under demanding agricultural or commercial installations.
Running on a 1.5 kW three-phase 415v motor; this model draws a nominal current of 3.3 Amps. The pump produces a maximum flow rate of 360 L/Min and is capable of reaching a maximum head of 32 m.
Its internal mechanical structure comprises a cast iron pump body with precision-moulded internal components. This includes a 20 percent glass-filled Noryl baffle and diffuser paired with an award-winning Hi-Flo polycarbonate impeller.
The shaft utilizes a robust nylon sleeve and Nitrile flexible bellows mechanical seal to prevent fluid leakage. Suction and discharge ports feature heavy 50 mm BSP female threaded connections to support large-diameter system piping.
