undefinedLiquid
For pumping in commercial areas of:
- Untreated sewage
- Sewage containing faeces
- Process sewage
- Fluids with dry matter up to max. 8 %
Equipment/function
- Heavy-duty cast iron design.
- Sealing chamber to collect any leakage from the mechanical seal on the fluid side.
- Leakage chamber to collect any leakage from the mechanical seal on the motor side (motor size 20 only).
- Motor monitoring with integrated Digital Data Interface:
- Winding temperature with PTC and Pt100 sensors.
- Leakage detection for sealing chamber and leakage chamber with capacitive sensor.
- Vibration sensor
- Data logger
- Web server
- Ethernet interface
- Nexos Intelligence, from easy pump monitoring to an intelligent pump control system with up to four pumps:
- "Device Control (DC)" system mode: control mode for pump and variable frequency drive (controlled by the pump) with clogging detection.
- "System Intelligence (SI)" system mode: Full control of an overall pumping station with up to four pumps, including clogging detection. A variable frequency drive drives each pump. One pump operates as the primary pump. The primary pump controls all other pumps depending on the system parameters.
- The standard DC system mode is free of charge. The SI system mode can be activated with a licence key.

Construction
Hydraulics
Non-self-priming centrifugal hydraulics with a closed or semi-open SOLID impeller. The horizontal discharge port has a flange connection. The pump housing and impeller are made of grey cast iron. The maximum dry solids content in the fluid is 8 %.
AFC motor
The AFC motor is a surface-cooled submersible permanent magnet motor without a separate cooling system. The motor housing is made of cast aluminium. The motor is designed for dry installation in continuous duty. Wet installation is not permitted.
The motor housing transfers the motor's waste heat directly to the pumped fluid and to the air. The motor compartment stays dry. Permanently lubricated rolling bearings support the motor shaft. A block seal cartridge (with two mechanical seals) seals the fluid side and the motor side. The power cable and the control cable are designed for heavy-duty applications and have bare cable ends. The power cable is longitudinally watertight.
The motor has an integrated variable frequency drive and a Digital Data Interface. The Digital Data Interface monitors the motor and controls the variable frequency drive. The variable frequency drive drives the motor. Three bimetallic sensors in the motor winding provide hardware-based shutdown with reactivation lock.
TFC motor
The TFC motor is a surface-cooled submersible permanent magnet motor without a separate cooling system. The motor housing is made of grey cast iron. The motor is designed for wet installation in continuous duty and for intermittent periodic duty when not immersed. Dry installation is not permitted.
The motor housing transfers the motor's waste heat directly to the fluid. The motor compartment stays dry. Permanently lubricated rolling bearings support the motor shaft. A block seal cartridge (with two mechanical seals) seals the fluid side and the motor side. The power cable and the control cable are designed for heavy-duty applications and have bare cable ends.

T motor
The T motor is a surface-cooled submersible permanent magnet motor without a separate cooling system. The motor is designed for continuous duty in wet installations. The housing parts transfer the motor’s waste heat directly to the fluid. The motor itself is dry. The motor bearings are permanently lubricated rolling bearings. Two independent mechanical seals seal the fluid side and the motor side. The connection cables are longitudinally watertight and have bare cable ends. The motor housing is made of grey cast iron. Depending on the motor size and power, the motor can be installed dry and operated in short-time duty.
The motor has an integrated Digital Data Interface. The Digital Data Interface monitors and controls the pump and the external Wilo-EFC variable frequency drive. The external Wilo-EFC variable frequency drive drives the motor. The motor has two PTC sensors that provide a hardware-based shutdown through the Safe Torque Off (STO) function of the Wilo-EFC.
FKT motor
The FKT motor is a self-cooling submersible permanent magnet motor with an active cooling system. The motor is designed for continuous duty in wet and dry installations. The cooling system has a closed cooling circuit. The coolant is a mixture of water and glycol. An impeller driven by the motor shaft continuously circulates the coolant. The cooling system is unpressurised when cold. A built-in pressure relief valve limits the maximum operating pressure to 3 bar (43 psi). The cooling flange transfers the waste heat to the pumped fluid. The motor bearings are permanently lubricated rolling bearings. Two independent mechanical seals seal the fluid side and the motor side. The connection cables are longitudinally watertight and have bare cable ends. The motor housing is made of grey cast iron
