Pedrollo 6ST Series: 6" Stainless Steel Submersible Pumps
The Pedrollo 6ST series offers high-quality submersible pumps constructed from AISI 304 stainless steel. These pumps are recommended for applications requiring a durable product with excellent mechanical resistance and corrosion resistance, ensuring a long service life.
Key Features and Applications
These 6-inch submersible pumps are designed for wells and feature a volute and impeller geometry that results in very high efficiencies and significant energy savings. They are suitable for pumping clean water with an sand content not exceeding 100 g/m³. Their high efficiency and reliability make them ideal for various applications, including:
- Industrial water needs
- Municipal water distribution
- Agricultural water supply
- Water distribution in combination with pressure tanks
- Irrigation systems
- Pressure boosting
- Firefighting systems
Performance Overview
The 6ST series offers a wide range of performance capabilities:
- Flow rates up to 1600 l/min (96 m³/h)
- Head up to 531 m
Performance Curves
Detailed performance curves are provided for different models, illustrating flow rate (Q) versus head (H) and efficiency (η) for various configurations, including:
- 6ST 85G Series
- 6ST 140G Series
- 6ST 250G Series
- 6ST 285G Series
These curves help in selecting the appropriate pump for specific operating conditions.
