Construction
Hydraulics
The outlet on the pressure side is designed as vertical screwed connection Rp 1½. Vortex impeller are used as the impeller shapes.
Motor
Glanded motors give off their heat directly to the surrounding fluid via the housing components and can be used in immersed state for permanent or intermittent operation.
A sealing chamber protects the motor from fluid ingress. The filling fluid used is potentially biodegradable and environmentally safe.
The single-phase AC motors are equipped with shockproof plugs, and A-model versions with float switches. The three-phase motors are equipped with bare cable ends.
Seal
Sealing on the fluid side is achieved by a bidirectional mechanical seal, while sealing on the motor side is achieved by a rotary shaft seal.
