Applications
The KRAKEN 1800 submersible pump is designed for pumping raw sewage, fecal matter, and dirty water free from abrasive elements such as sand. The pump is used for pumping sewage from domestic septic tanks and draining flooded rooms, houses, and garages. It is also frequently used in domestic sewage pumping stations.
The multi-channel disc grinder minimizes the risk of pump blockage. The device operates in a vertical position with a horizontal outlet, with a maximum pumped-medium density of 1100 kg/m³ and a maximum liquid temperature of 35°C.
Features of the KRAKEN 1800 pump
The KRAKEN 1800 pump has a motor housing made of AISI 304 stainless steel, so it does not corrode during constant contact with sewage. The pump body and impeller are made of gray cast iron, the cutting knife is made of gray cast iron and AISI 304 stainless steel, and the shaft is made of AISI 304 stainless steel.
In the 230 V version, the float switch automatically controls the pump’s operation and provides basic protection against dry running; in the 400 V version, control is provided by external equipment selected separately for the installation. Thermal protection built into the winding protects the motor from overheating.
