Applications
Grundfos Large SP submersible pumps are suitable
for:
Groundwater supply to waterworks
Irrigation in horticulture and agriculture
Groundwater lowering (dewatering)
Pressure boosting
Industrial applications
Domestic water supply.
Pumped liquids
Grundfos SP pumps are suitable for pumping clean,
thin, non-aggressive liquids without solid particles or
fibers.
SP offers stainless steel construction which ensures
good wear resistance and a reduced risk of corrosion
where the water has minor chloride content.
Optional, upgraded stainless steel construction is
available for pumping more aggressive liquids:
A complete range of zinc anodes for cathodic
protection is available; see page 138 for
applications (for example, sea water applications).
For slightly polluted liquids (for example, containing
oil), Grundfos offers a complete range of stainless
steel SP NE pumps with all rubber parts made of
FKM.
