Dirty water pumping in food industry, agricultural, and irrigation applications requires pumps that combine high flow capability with durability in soiled wastewater conditions. The Zenit SME 200/2/2-80HM is a 1.5 kW submersible drainage pump with a high-efficiency hydraulic system and single-channel closed impeller. The unit is suitable for storm water, wastewater in small sewer systems, livestock farms, and agricultural irrigation, with a stainless steel AISI 304 handle and internal cooling system for reliable operation.
Maximum head for this model is 16.8 metres with a maximum flow of 960 L/Min, powered by a 240V single-phase motor drawing 9.3 Amps. The 1.5 kW motor operates at 2900 rpm with Class F insulation and IP68 ingress protection. These performance characteristics suit high-flow applications requiring significant transfer capability with moderate head requirements.
Hydraulic design incorporates a single-channel closed impeller with a free passage of 50 mm, allowing the pump to handle heavily soiled wastewater. The closed channel impeller configuration maintains hydraulic efficiency while processing solids commonly found in agricultural and food industry wastewater. The hydraulic system is constructed from Cast Iron EN-GJL 250.
Construction features a Cast Iron EN-GJL 250 casing with bi-epoxy 120 ?m coating. The shaft is stainless steel AISI 431, and sealing uses a double mechanical silicon seal and a lip seal. Motor protection includes Class F insulation, IP68 rating, thermal protection, and a capacitor. Cable length is 10 metres with 3G1 configuration, and the unit weighs 24.5 kg.
