As a cast iron submersible sewage pump, the Tsurumi 80B418.5 manages the transfer of water treatment in wet wells. The unit is compatible with free standing discharge bends and duckfoot bend guide rail fitting systems, enabling routine installation and retrieval. It is rated for continuous duty in liquids from 0 to 40°C.
The electrical motor is rated at 18.5 kW, drawing 37 Amps on a three-phase 415 V supply. Under these parameters, the pump maintains a maximum discharge capacity of approximately 2310 L/Min and a maximum total head of approximately 49 m.
At the hydraulic end, a Semi-open two-channel impeller offers a solids passage diameter of 46 mm. The physical ports consist of an open suction intake and a 80 mm discharge bore.
This model uses gray cast iron for the casing and impeller, along with a 420 stainless steel shaft. A double mechanical seal operating in an oil chamber is configured with Silicon Carbide-to-Silicon Carbide upper and lower seal faces. Lubrication is supplied by an Oil Lifter, while the anti-wicking block prevents water ingress through the cable entry. Motor winding protection is handled by a built-in Miniature Thermal Protectors.
