Pedrollo VXCm 20/50 Submersible Water Pump 1.5kW (1964)

An innovative project by Pedrollo's Research and Development department has resulted in the new VXC, a complete range of extremely robust and reliable electric pumps.

Thanks to the enhanced oversizing of the oil-bath electric motor, shaft, and bearings, the new VXC electric pumps guarantee an unprecedented service life, with high hydraulic performance, low operating costs, and easy maintenance. The oil-bath motor also allows continuous operation of the electric pump, even if completely uncovered. They are recommended in all installations for pumping wastewater with suspended solid bodies up to 65 mm in diameter. The VXC series is equipped with an extremely reliable and robust VORTEX impeller with a low risk of clogging.

Installation and use

The VXC series of pumps, manufactured from heavy gauge robust cast iron, resistant to abrasion and long-lasting, are fitted with a VORTEX impeller and therefore suitable for drainage of effluent water, water mixed with mud, liquids containing air or gas, and putrid muds. They are recommended for fixed installations when placed in suitable wells, sewers, tunnels, wells, underground car parks, etc.
