Single-phase Portable Pumps NK Series

Single-phase Portable Pumps NK Series are compact and lightweight, so they are very easy handle and carry. Available in an extensive lineup of motor outputs ranging from 0.1 to 2.2kW, these pumps are suited for a wide range of applications besides general pumping and drainage, including slurries, residues and household uses.

Though compact in size, these pumps pack a host of original technologies that Tsurumi has tested and proven over many years, including the anti-wicking cable, inside mechanical seal with silicon carbide face and Oil Lifter*, etc. Additionally, key components that are prone to wear are made of durable materials and pumps as a whole are designed for continuous duty. For these reasons, Tsurumi single-phase portable pumps are a popular choice at civil engineering, construction and other work sites that demand high reliability.

SINGLE-PHASE PORTABLE PUMPS NK SERIES

          Tsurumi has been manufacturing construction dewatering pumps for more than 50 years. This has led to numerous technologies and know-how
for improving the durability and maintainability of pumps in the rental and construction markets where rugged work environments demand heavy-duty specifications. All of Tsurumi’s pumps are designed and built to be durable and reliable so as to serve users dependably.

Motor Cooling & Dicscharge Design

Top Discharge, Flow-Thru Design
(LB , LB-A , LSC , FAMILY , FAMILY-A)
This design provides maximum motor cooling efficiency allowing continuous operation at low water levels and extended dry-run capability, and also allows the shape of the pump to be cylindrical and slim for installation in a well casing for deep well dewatering.

Top Discharge, Side Flow Design
(NK)
This design assures efficient motor cooling even if the pump runs with its motor exposed to air, and also allows the overall diameter of the pump to be reduced for installation in  confined spaces.

Side Discharge, Spiral Design
(HS , HSZ , HSD , HSR)
The pump has a spiral pump casing that facilitates smoother passage of foreign objects like mud and soil contained in the pumped liquid. It is a simple and practical design that facilitates inspection and repair work.

Automatic Operation

The automatic model only operates when sufficient water is present. It not only reduces power consumption but also extends the life of wear parts of the pump as it eliminates dry-running that causes early wear-out.

Float Switch (HSZ / FAMILY-A)
This automatic operation system is controlled by a float switch. When the water level rises and raises the float switch to a preset level, the switch turns on, and the pump starts. When the water level lowers to the preset level, pump operation stops.

NK -Larger Output Pumps-

       The NK-series is a submersible single-phase portable drainage pump having a larger output motor. Though it is a single-phase unit, the pump has the durability equivalent to three-phase drainage pumps, since the wear parts are made of abrasion-resistant materials. The slim design allows the pump to be placed in a confined space.

Structure

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Ut elit tellus, luctus nec ullamcorper mattis, pulvinar dapibus leo.

1.Anti-Wicking Cable Entry
Prevents water incursion due to capillary action should the cable sheath be damaged or the end of cable submerged. Also prevents moist air from infiltrating the motor housing and condensation from forming inside the housing due to temperature differences between the housing and outside air.

2. Motor Protector
MTP (0.48kW and below)
Detects excess heat, therefore, protecting the pump against overheating and dry-running.
CTP (0.55kW and above)
Directly cuts the motor circuit if excessive heat builds up or overcurrent occurs in the motor.

3.Dual Inside Mechanical Seals with Silicon Carbide Face
Inside Mechanical Seal with Silicon Carbide Face (FAMILY)
Isolated in the oil chamber where a clean, non-corrosive and abrasion-free lubricating environment is maintained. Compared with the water-cooled outside mechanical seal, it reduces the risk of failure caused by dry-heating and adhering matter. The silicon carbide provides 5 times higher corrosion, wear and heat resistance than the tungsten carbide.

4.Oil Lifter
* Not available for FAMILY
Provides lubrication and cooling of the seal faces down to 1/3 of normal oil level, thus maintaining a stable shaft sealing effect and prolonging seal life longer. The Oil Lifter is Tsurumi original design.

 

5.V-Ring / Oil Seal (excluding HS(Z/R)2.4S, FAMILY)
Used as a “Dust Seal”, they protect the mechanical seal from abrasive particles.

6.Cable Clip (excluding NK3-22L, LSP, FAMILY)
Prevents unexpected water incursion that can occur if the cable is damaged, by protecting the cable against the tugging and rough handling found at construction sites.

7.Agitator
For HS and HSZ
Prevents the air lock that tends to take place on vortex or semi-vortex pumps.
For HSD
Assists the pump in sucking and transferring bentonite slurry, slime, mud, and water with high sand content.

8.Resin-made Stand (HS / HSZ / HSD)
Rubber Stand (HSR / LSC / LSP)
Prevents scratching of floor surface.

9.Multi-Directional Hose Coupling (LB / LB-A / HSR / LSC)
Can be configured for inclined or vertical discharge, allowing for smoother installation.
