Calpeda Pumps
Producing technology implies anticipating new solutions, foreseeing new uses and discovering alternative applications and materials. We have always sought to be innovative, interpreting and defining it into new dimensions and new functions. We manufacture high technology pumps for the most varied uses: from domestic applications to the industrial sectors, from the building-service sector throughout agriculture and irrigation, to swimming pools and spa baths. Each day we think of what we can do in order to improve our products by experimenting with their size make-up, weight, transportability and resilience. Each single product undergoes full production testing, to verify the quality standard of each item. Spare parts are still available for Calpeda pumps, even those out of production or supplied over thirty years ago.

PVC pipe connections: Ports for cementing joint, with external thread for union coupling.
Applications
For spas, hydromassage bathtubs and whirlpool baths.
Self-priming swimming pool pumps
Construction
Self-priming swimming pool pumps with built-in strainer and motor insulated from pumped water.
The pump is made with high quality plastic materials, corrosion and sand erosion resistant.
With stainless steel diffuser.
Base-plate kit.
Applications
For water circulation in swimming pool filtration systems.
For clean or slightly dirty water with solids in suspension.
Centrifugal pumps with open impeller
Construction

Self-priming centrifugal pumps with open impeller
Construction
Close-coupled centrifugal pumps with open impeller.
The built-in backflow preventer avoids reverse siphoning when the pump is stopped and assures automatic re-priming at the next start.
The pump re-primes itself even if partially filled with liquid and with completely empty suction pipe.

Applications
For clean or slightly dirty water, also with solids up to 10 mm grain size for A 40, A 50 and 15 mm for A 65, A 80.
For draining a basin or a sump.
For irrigation. For civil and industrial applications.
Vertical submerged pumps
Multi-stage submersible clean water pumps
Construction
Close coupled multi-stage submersible pumps.
External jacket in stainless steel AISI 304 and stages in Noryl. MPSM with built-in capacitor, accessible through the delivery casing. Hydraulics located below the motor with the motor cooled by the pumped fluid. Safe operation is possible with the motor only partially submerged. Double shaft seal with oil chamber. The suction strainer prevents the entrance of solids with diameter bigger than 2 mm.
Applications

Pressure boosting sets
BS 1-6F
Pressure boosting sets with 1 to 6 fixed speed pump.Sets with 4,5 and 6 pumps on request. Depending on the reduction of the pressure in the system, the pressure switches determine the starting up of the pumpsin sequence and the microprocessor alternates the starts.
BS1V2-5F

According to the water consumption, one or more pumps start, one at variable speed and the others at fixed speed, to grant the water quantity required at the set pressure.
BS1-6V
Pressure boosting sets with 1 to 6 variable speed pumps(with frequency converter into the control panel). Sets with 4,5 and 6 pumps on request.Depending on water consumption, one or more pumps are activated, all at variable speed, in order to guarantee the quantity of water required at the set pressure.
