Max Flow @ Minimum Costs
The Flowfriend is far ahead in the field of energy efficient water pumping.
How is this accomplished?
- A highly efficient, new generation of permanent magnet motor, high-quality German built
- The outer casing and optimised impeller system made fully from cast stainless steel 316
- Optimum adaptation to the pond and season by speed control
- Permanent Magnate Motor (PMSM)
The engine is a premium-efficiency motor IE4.
It meets the latest energy requirements from 2015, which are required in the industry.
The engine is fully developed and manufactured in Germany.
By default the Flowfriend’s adjustable speed (800-2550 RPM).
For the controlling there is a display on the pump.
The main advantage of permanent magnet motors compared to a frequency-controlled synchronous motors is the remarkably high efficiency at low RPM.
However, even in the higher RPM range, they are significantly more economical.
Ingenious hydraulic system
The hydraulic system of a pump consists of the pump impeller and the pump housing.
The hydraulic system provides:
- To a large extent the overall efficiency of the pump
- Whatever application the pump is suitable
Flowfriend’s hydraulics is specially designed for high flow at low pressure.
Its optimal scope is between 0 and 5 meters height.
More than a propeller pump pressure available, which in any back-pressure in such piping inappropriate.
A lot more pressure than comparable pumps with maximum m3.
Almost all pumps available with larger capacities (watts), more than 10 meters pressure.
The hydraulics of the Flowfriend is entirely made of cast stainless steel 316. Robust, smooth and perfect shape for minimal internal losses.
Thus, the Flowfriend up a 3 “(90mm) inlet and outlet.
