The Pedrollo PKm is a robust, and economical pump used principally for water transfer in domestic and small scale water transfer applications. The pump body is made from cast iron with a brass insert set into the front housing for improved starting performance and protection from jamming. The impeller is made from brass. The pumps have been remodelled and re-engineered offering the following benefits; Pedrollo logo inserted in the body pump Quiet operation due to the anti vibration system between shaft and impeller More compact More efficient motor with low energy consumption and lower operating temperature. Special paint which gives improved resistance against environmental corrosion Longer life Pumps can be installed for manual or automatic control using either the unique ‘Presscontrol’ unit or a pressure tank and switch. Also available is the integral ‘Hydrofresh’ version (Pkm60 only) which combines a 24L horizontal diaphragm tank, pressure switch and gauge with pressure settings of 1.4 Bar for pump start and 2.8 Bar for pump stop. MOTOR Pumps are close coupled to a TEFC brushless induction motor designed for continuous operation. A thermal relay is provided in the windings to protect against electrical and mechanical overload and the pump can be connected directly to the mains power supply through a 10amp fuse or MCB.
