1.  Application 

 

The 

KSB 

MEGAFLOW 

centrifugal 

pump 

is 

recommended  for  industrial  and  municipal  waste  water, 

as  well  as  all  kinds  of  pulps  not  liable  to  plait,  sewage 

water, chemical effluents.

Food processing 

-

 

Sugar and alcohol 

-

 

Mining and manufacturing 

-

 

Civil construction 

 

 

2.  Design 

 

Horizontal,  single-stage,  simple  horizontal  suction  and 

vertical  upwards  discharge.  The  “back-pull-out”  design 

allows maintenance and repair services through the back 

side, without dismantling piping and alignment. 

The available hydraulics and impeller types allow proper 

selection for the handled liquid and required application.
