Pedrollo BC-ST Stainless Steel Submersible Pumps
TWO-CHANNEL Impeller Technology
Product Overview
The Pedrollo BC-ST series offers powerful and robust high-efficiency submersible pumps constructed entirely from stainless steel, providing superior corrosion and abrasion resistance.
These pumps are designed for various applications, including:
- [Sewage]
- [Domestic use]
- [Civil use]
- [Industrial use]
Performance Range
- Flow rate up to 850 l/min (51 m³/h)
- Head up to 17 m
Installation and Use
BC-ST stainless steel submersible pumps are engineered to drain dirty and sewage water in domestic, civil, and industrial settings. Featuring a TWO-CHANNEL impeller, they efficiently handle liquids containing suspended solids up to 50 mm in diameter with short fibers. They are suitable for wastewater, sewage, surface water, and sludge-mixed water in residential properties.
The hydraulic configuration of the volute and the TWO-CHANNEL impeller, developed through advanced fluid dynamics calculations, delivers superior performance and efficiency, leading to significant energy savings.
The TWO-CHANNEL impeller ensures excellent performance and high energy efficiency, generating increased pressure for pumping solids up to 50 mm in diameter, making it an ideal choice for wastewater drainage.
