The KTZ-series is a submersible three-phase cast iron high head heavy-duty drainage pump. The cast iron body with high-chromium cast iron impeller enables it to withstand demanding conditions found in construction, aggregate and mining applications. The top discharge, side flow design assures efficient motor cooling even when it operates with its motor exposed to air. The slim design allows the pump to be placed in a confined space. The discharge direction is selectable between vertical and inclined, which prevents folding or bending of the discharge hose. The pump with 7.5 to 22kW motor incorporates seal pressure relief ports that prevent the pumping pressure from applying to the shaft seal.
