Industrial-scale water circulation for professional aquaculture and commercial aquariums is managed by this powerful three-phase unit. It is engineered for seawater and freshwater applications where high efficiency and low maintenance are critical for operational stability. The pump is designed for continuous duty service in the most demanding aquatic environments.
Hydraulic performance includes a maximum flow rate of approximately 640 L/Min and a maximum head of approximately 23.5 m. This three-phase 415v model delivers 1.98 kW of output power (P2) with a full load current of 4.4 Amps. These characteristics provide high-volume water transfer for extensive aquaculture systems.
Inside, the unit features an impeller made with Noryl® to stand tough against harsh chemicals. A specialized salt water mechanical seal protects the motor from corrosive liquid ingress. Precision-fit components and a low-friction Teflon wear ring ensure the pump maintains hydraulic performance.
The pump body is constructed from Pentair's exclusive Dura-Glas™ composite for maximum corrosion protection and structural integrity. The shaft and seal are constructed with 316 stainless steel for excellent protection against rust in seawater conditions. External motor protection is provided by a triple epoxy coating, and 50mm barrel unions allow for rapid installation and easy maintenance access.
