GMP Electric Surface Trash Self Priming Pump – B1½KQA-ST TRASH EA6E 230v

Description

The GMP B1½KQA-ST EA6E 230v electric trash pump (code 070-001) is an electric self priming surface trash pump in cast iron, for dirty water and wastewater carrying solids. It pumps up to 280 litres per minute and reaches a maximum head of 14 metres from a 0.75 kW motor on 230v single-phase, the standard UK mains supply. It is the smallest trash pump in the range, with 1½″ ports for drainage and transfer where the flow is modest.

The GMP B2KQA-ST EAR3 is the next size up, 440 l/min to 17 m.

The pump sits on the surface and lifts water from up to 6 metres below it. A multi-blade impeller handles dirty water and solids, and an inspection door on the casing lets you clear a blockage without dismantling the pump. A non-return valve on the inlet keeps the casing full after it stops, so it re-primes quickly on the next cycle. The casing, inlet flange and impeller are cast iron, with a stainless steel shaft and silicon carbide mechanical seal, and it handles liquids up to 60°C. Models of 4 kW and above are supplied on a skid plate.
