Centrifugal water pump information and links to Pedrollo product catalogue
A Pedrollo centrifugal Water pump is available in many different sizes and designs.
Centrifugal pumps relate to any pump with an impeller which spins on a shaft literally exerting centrifugal force on the fluid and driving it outwards.
Pedrollo manufactures and has innovated a number of designs to offer the user choices in deciding on a centrifugal pump for their specific application.
Certain centrifugal pumps are designed to provide huge flow rates at very low pressures or heads. These are normally known as single stage pumps. See the Pedrollo CP, HF, NGA, F series of pumps.
Other centrifugal pumps will produce high heads at lower flow rates known as a multistage pump.
The multistage centrifugal water pump, Pedrollo 2 CP series as well as the borehole pump SR range being a submersible pump are typical examples.
When selecting a pump, one obviously needs to have the basics in place prior to requesting or designing the right pump for your pumping systems.
Pressure pumps for example will need to not only take into consideration the system back pressure and static head requirement for the pump, the system designer will also need to determine how much pressure is required at the end point.
Pumping systems
Typical pumping systems that need pressure at the outlet of the pipe line include domestic water supply, irrigation systems and boiler feed pumps.
These pumping systems all require the water to not only be delivered to the end of the pipe at a specific flowrate, the system must also provide excess pressure to drive the sprinkler, shower head, geyser, heat exchanger, cooling coil etc.
When it comes to industrial pumps, the actual pump system can become complex and one needs to involve a pump professional in the selection process.
The most common type of Centrifugal pump is termed end suction pumps.
These centrifugal pumps are typical of the F series and CP series from Pedrollo.
The CP and 2 CP series of centrifugal pumps has a threaded inlet and outlet housing while the F series centrifugal pumps are flanges inlet and outlet ports.
Internationally, Pedrollo is known as the innovator of pumps for the water industry and prides itself in the quality of the centrifugal pumps manufactured in the Italian plant.
From the design, casting and machining of components in various materials, Pedrollo has established products for the majority of water and process fluid systems into which centrifugal pumps are well suited.

When deciding to enquire from any pump company for a centrifugal water pump, please have the following information available.
Fluid being pumped?
The maximum flowrate you need the pump to produce in litres per minute?
The maximum static head (height) from the centre line of the pump to the highest point of delivery.
The temperature of the fluid.
The solid content if any?
The electrical power supply (220v or 380/400 v)
We are certain that we will be able to provide the correct unit for your application.
