Precision fluid velocity paths define the Pedrollo VXC30/50-F VXC Submersible Vortex Pump, Guide Rail as a highly capable extraction tool. Designed for subterranean networks, the hydraulic loop manages the transfer of dirty water and raw sewage. This stabilization helps the system to route sludge mixtures smoothly.
Driven by a VORTEX impeller, the unit moves solid debris through its 65 mm discharge port. This dynamic is protected by a double mechanical seal system featuring an oil chamber. These components safely accelerate internal liquids to generate a flow rate of 850 L/Min, pushing fluid upward to a maximum head pressure of 15.5 m.
To maintain integrity against caustic wastewater, the casing is cast from thick iron augmented by cataphoresis treatment. Weighing 45.5 kg, the dense body supports stationary stability. This model is suitable for guide rail installations using an automatic coupling arrangement that allows service access without entering the wet well.
Electrical loading is managed by a 2.2 kW three-phase motor pulling 5 Amps over a 415v supply. Supplied with a 10-metre power cable, the architecture dissipates heat efficiently, operating submerged in liquids up to 40 degrees Celsius. This combination supports dependable solutions for continuous commercial sewage processing.
