Peripheral pumps by Pedrollo

 Peripheral pumps by Pedrollo pumps of Italy are perfect flor low flow, high pressure applications. The PK, PQ and CK series make up the range. These units are extensively used in industry and domestic water reticulation systems.

A peripheral impeller is slightly different from the typical traditional understanding of a centrifugal pump design. The peripheral impeller only transports the fluid on the periphery of the impeller disk and does not draw fluid into the centre of the impeller. Operating more like a turbine than a centrifugal type pump.

The very close tolerence between impeller and housing means that the peripheral pump is not designed for solid handling in any way. The higher pitch sound from a peripheral pump is a typical characteristic of this type of pump design.

The PKm 60 Pedrollo pump is a huge favourite of the domestic market due to its effective low cost and high quality, efficient design. The unit is very popular in small domestic water systems where users need to automate two taps.

Coupled to a automatic controller this is an idea solution for rain water or water storage tank water supply automation.

Small boiler and hot water transfer pump systems are the target market for the peripheral pump sector. Pedrollo has a huge range of units from the Pk end suction to the PQ side suction designed pump units.

With pressure capability up to 10 bar this low cost pump range is ideal for the cost concious OEM needing a small pump for production projects.
