DAB.FEKA - submersible sludge pump

The DAB.FEKA submersible sludge pumps are designed for continuous operation in wastewater systems, handling non-aggressive liquids with suspended solids and fibres. These pumps are suitable for applications such as septic tanks, drainage systems, and industrial wastewater management. The range includes models with varying flow rates and discharge pressures, accommodating different system requirements and installation conditions.

Constructed with cast iron and silicon carbide seals, these pumps offer durability in environments with solid content up to 108 mm. They operate with asynchronous motors and are supplied with 10 m H07RN-F cables for electrical connection. Installation is typically upright, either fixed or portable, depending on the model.

How to choose

• Assess the maximum solid size in the pumped liquid to select a model with a suitable throughput (e.g., 62 mm for FEKA 2500/2700 or 80–108 mm for FEKA 6000/8000 series).
• Match the pump’s flow rate and discharge head to the system’s hydraulic requirements, ranging from 3 to 780 m3/h and up to 28 m.
• Confirm compatibility with the electrical supply (single-phase or three-phase) and ensure the control and protection system is correctly integrated.
• Verify the maximum immersion depth (up to 20 m) and liquid temperature range (typically 0°C to +40°C or +55°C) for the intended application.
• Check the connection type (e.g., flange UNI 1.092 PN 6) and ensure the installation method (fixed or portable) aligns with the site conditions.

Frequently asked questions

What is the maximum solid size that DAB.FEKA sludge pumps can handle?
Depending on the model, the maximum solid diameter ranges from 62 mm (FEKA 2500/2700) to 108 mm (FEKA 6000/8000 series).

Can these pumps operate continuously?
Yes, continuous operation is possible provided the pump is fully submerged and the motor is protected against dry running.

What cable type is standard with these pumps?
All models are supplied with a 10 m H07RN-F neoprene cable as standard.
