Industrial stormwater systems and municipal wastewater management facilities require pumps that can sustain performance under continuous duty with minimal maintenance. The Zenit DRG 550/2/80HB0FTEX is a 4.0 kW submersible drainage pump with ATEX Ex d certification, suitable for industrial dewatering, sewage systems, and low to medium density activated sludge applications. The unit features heavy-duty cast iron construction and is compatible with ring stand free-standing installation.
Performance specifications include a maximum head of 16.7 metres and a maximum flow of 2208 L/Min, powered by a 415V three-phase motor drawing 7.7 Amps. The 4.0 kW motor uses direct starting with 54.1 Amps starting current and produces 13.3 Nm of rated torque. These characteristics suit applications requiring high-volume transfer with moderate head requirements.
The open channel impeller design provides a free passage of 55 x 50 mm for solids and debris, with the multi-channel configuration minimising clogging risk. Hydraulic efficiency is rated at 51.2%, with the hydraulic system constructed from Cast Iron EN-GJL 250. The impeller is manufactured from the same material, and performance curve tolerance meets UNI EN ISO 9906:2012 standards.
Construction features a Cast Iron EN-GJL 250 casing with bi-epoxy 200 ?m sea water resistant coating. The shaft is stainless steel AISI 431, and sealing is provided by two mechanical seals in silicon carbide (2SiC). Motor protection includes Class H insulation, IP68 ingress rating, thermal protection, and a leakage sensor. Cable length is 10 metres with 4G1,5+3x1 configuration, and the unit weighs 68.6 kg. A ZENS9024.006 Ring Stand is required for free-standing operation.
