Descaling pump Kammak YAK-02

Product detailed description

Descaling pumps are essential in maintaining the efficiency of closed thermal systems such as boilers, water heaters, heat exchangers, underfloor and wall-mounted heating units, solar systems and cooling systems. Over time, these systems accumulate deposits such as scale, corrosion residues and sludge, which reduce heat transfer efficiency and increase energy consumption. The KAMMAK YAK-02 is designed for rapid and efficient cleaning of such systems, ensuring optimal performance and extending equipment lifespan.

Installers and service technicians working in residential and commercial buildings frequently use descaling pumps to perform maintenance on heating and cooling circuits. The system must be isolated from the main supply and drained before the cleaning solution is introduced. The pump circulates the solution through the system to dissolve and remove deposits. After cleaning, the system is flushed with water to remove any remaining residue.

Technical parameters

Code	KM-78023
Brand	KAMMAK

The pump has a 10 L tank, which provides sufficient capacity for most standard system cleaning tasks. A flow rate of 35 l/min ensures efficient circulation of the cleaning solution. The 370 W motor delivers adequate power for descaling operations. The working pressure range of 1–4 bar allows for flexible operation depending on the system requirements. These parameters are important for selecting the appropriate pump for the system size and complexity.

Installation and connection

The pump is connected to the system using the included 2 x 2 m transparent PVC hoses with 1/2 inch T60 fittings. The hoses are suitable for pressures up to 60 °C and should be connected to the system's inlet and outlet points. The pump should be positioned on a stable surface and secured with the shoulder strap. Before starting, the system must be isolated and drained. It is important to ensure that the connections are tight and leak-free to prevent loss of pressure during operation. A common mistake is using incompatible hose fittings, which can lead to leaks and reduced cleaning efficiency.

Compatibility and accessories

The KAMMAK YAK-02 is compatible with a wide range of closed thermal systems. The included hoses are suitable for most standard installations. Additional accessories such as cleaning agents and system isolation valves may be required depending on the specific application. The pump is designed for use with descaling solutions that are compatible with the materials in the system. No related products are listed for this model.

Technical background for designers

The pump operates on an electric motor that drives a centrifugal pump mechanism. The transparent PVC hoses allow visual monitoring of the cleaning solution flow. The materials used are resistant to common descaling agents and temperatures up to 60 °C. The pump is designed for integration into existing systems without requiring major modifications. The efficiency and service life of the pump depend on the quality of the cleaning solution and the frequency of use. Regular maintenance is recommended to ensure long-term performance.

Service and operation

The pump requires regular inspection of the hoses and connections for wear and leaks. The tank should be emptied and cleaned after each use to prevent residue buildup. The motor and pump mechanism should be checked for signs of damage or wear. No specific service intervals are provided in the brief. It is important to store the pump in a dry place when not in use to prevent corrosion and degradation of components.

Frequently asked questions

Can the pump be used with descaling agents containing citric acid?
Yes, the pump is compatible with descaling agents as long as they are suitable for the system materials and do not exceed the temperature limit of 60 °C.

Is the pump suitable for use in solar heating systems?
Yes, the KAMMAK YAK-02 is suitable for solar heating systems as it is designed for closed systems and can handle the typical flow and pressure requirements.

Can the included hoses be replaced with different lengths?
Yes, the hoses can be replaced with other lengths as long as they have the same 1/2 inch T60 fittings and are suitable for the operating pressure and temperature.

Can the pump be used for both forward and reverse flow?
Yes, the pump supports reverse flow operation, which is useful for flushing the system after cleaning.
