Applications Pump
Being designed for continuous as well as intermittent The SQF pump range comprises two pump
operation, the SQFlex system is especially suitable for technologies:
water supply applications in remote locations, such as • the helical rotor pump (3") for high heads and small
• villages, schools, hospitals, single-family houses, flows.
etc. • the centrifugal pump (4") for low heads and large
• farms flows.
– watering of cattle The performance curves below illustrate the pump
performance for the two pump models.
– irrigation of fields and greenhouses
• game parks and game farms
H
– watering applications
• conservation areas A: Helical rotor pump
B: Centrifugal pump
– surface water pumping
• floating pump installations for pumping of water
from ponds and lakes.

Sand content
Maximum sand content: 50 g/m3.
A higher sand content will reduce the pump life
considerably due to wear.
Salt content
The table below shows the resistance of stainless steel
to Cl-. The values in the table are based on a pumped
liquid with a pH value of 5 to 9.

Features and benefits SQFlex
Overload protection
In case the upper load limit is exceeded, the motor will
automatically compensate for this by reducing the
speed. If the speed falls below 500 min -1, the motor will
Fig. 2 Vertical installation be cut out automatically.
The motor will remain cut out for 10 seconds after which
period the pump will automatically attempt to restart.
The overload protection prevents burnout of the motor.
Consequently, no extra motor protection is required.
