For clean water distribution, garden and orchard irrigation, the Pedrollo PKM90 provides a compact close coupled peripheral pumping arrangement. It is intended for clean liquids without abrasive particles and for liquids that are not chemically aggressive towards the pump materials, making its operating role clearly suited to clean-water service.
The hydraulic characteristics give the PKM90 a maximum head of 82 m and maximum flow of 40 L/Min. With a maximum working pressure of 8 bar, the pump is configured around higher head performance rather than high-volume flow, providing a defined hydraulic duty within its specified operating limits.
A peripheral impeller with radial vanes forms the hydraulic element responsible for developing the pump's pressure. This configuration supports water distribution and smaller-scale irrigation duties where a combination of elevated head and moderate flow is required rather than large-volume transfer.
The pump uses a cast iron body and brass impeller in a close coupled construction. Liquid temperatures up to 40°C are permitted, while the integrated arrangement keeps the pump assembly compact and mechanically straightforward for suitable domestic water service installations.
FEATURES
- Radial peripheral vane impeller configuration provides the hydraulic pumping action.
- Close coupled pump construction keeps the complete pumping arrangement compact.
- Cast iron hydraulic body forms the main structural enclosure around the pump section.
- Brass impeller provides the specified material configuration for the rotating hydraulic element.
- Single mechanical seal construction provides separation around the rotating shaft.
- Stainless steel motor shaft provides the mechanical drive connection through the pump.
- Aluminium motor bracket incorporates a brass cover and patented front scraping anti-locking function.
- ISO 228/1 threaded ports provide the specified threaded connection arrangement on the pump body.
