| Description |
Pump in cast-iron with double-channel impeller. This kind of impeller grants a good free passage for the solid parts contained into the water but it gives also an higher flow and head than the "vortex" impeller. This model with an heavy duty construction and double indipendent mechanical seals can be used to pump sewage water and manure. |
| Use |
The VORTEX 400 E is usually installed into block of flats' cellars to drain the rain water or the domestic sewage water in particular when a good heas is required. This model is also often used in farms to pump out the manure of the stables, in industrial plants, in sewage water treatment plants, etc. This model cannot be used to pump water containing stones. |
| Operation conditions |
Max liquid temperature: 50 °C (122 °F) pH: 6-10 Max density < 1100 kg/m³ Max immersion depth: 30m |
