Description/design

Submersible-motor pump for vertical or horizontal installation.

Hydraulics

Multistage submersible-motor pump with 4" NEMA connection and radial or semi-axial impellers with sectional construction. Integrated non-return valve. All parts in contact with the fluid are made of corrosion-free materials.

Motor

Corrosion-free single-phase or three-phase AC motor for direct starting. Sealed and hermetically cast motor, resin-impregnated, with enamel-insulated winding, self-lubricating bearing, with water-glycol filling.

Cooling

The motor is cooled by the fluid. The motor must always be operated in submerged state. The limit values for the max. fluid temperature and the minimum flow rate must not be exceeded. Vertical installation is possible optionally with or without cooling jacket. Cooling jacket is required for horizontal installation.

Pressure shroud

The pressure shroud is used for direct installation of the unit in the pipe system. Standard models are without mounted non-return valves. The maximum inlet pressure is 10 bar.


General notes - ErP (ecological design-) directive

Minimum Efficiency Index (MEI) ≥ 0.1

  • The benchmark for most efficient water pumps is MEI ≥ 0.70
  • The efficiency of a pump with a trimmed impeller is usually lower than that of a pump with the full impeller diameter. The trimming of the impeller will adapt the pump to a fixed duty point, leading to reduced energy consumption. The minimum efficiency index (MEI) is based on the full impeller diameter.
  • The operation of this water pump with variable duty points may be more efficient and economic when controlled, for example, by the use of a variable speed drive that matches the pump duty to the system.
  • Information on benchmark efficiency is available at www.europump.org/efficiencycharts


Minimum Efficiency Index (MEI)

≥ 0.1


Configuration

  • No suction mode is possible with these units!
  • The unit must be fully immersed in water during operation.
