Technical features

The Sigma 'K' Pump incorporates many original technical features which make it the best of its type.

  • Reinforced inlet, discharge and lugs - prevent breakage even if subjected to rough treatment.
  • The tapered internal body - this unique technological advantage assures automatic settlement of the wings in the body and guarantees smooth efficient operation even after years of usage.
  • A frost plug - allows water to be drained if there is a risk of frost.

    Thorough quality control - each pump is individually tested to a suction lift of 7m of water and 20m of delivery head.

Operation

The pumps are operated by the movement of the handle which causes the shaft and the wing piston, fitted with flap valves, to semi-rotate within the pump. Also enclosed in the body of the pump is the suction divider, fitted with flaps. Gland packing compressed by the gland ring and nut acts as a seal between the shaft and the pump cover. The standard model has threaded flanges and is supplied with threaded counterflanges. Two lugs facilitate the mounting of the pump to a wall or similar structure.
