WHY IT WORKS

Built for the job

Supplied as: 1 x Speroni KP or KPM peripheral pump (model as ordered).

Cast iron peripheral pump for light industrial circulation and boosting.

The Speroni Pumps KP(M) range are cast iron peripheral pumps for light industrial circulation and boosting applications. Peripheral pumps are small, compact, and produce high head from modest motors. They are a common pump choice for light industrial loops, boiler feed from stored water, and any application where you need pressure more than you need flow.

This listing covers the two 230V single-phase models: KPM50 (0.37kW) and KPM80 (0.6kW).

The 400V three-phase equivalents (KP50 and KP80) are supplied to the same specification.

All models have a 1" inlet and 1" outlet.

Where the Speroni KP and KPM Pumps are Used

  • Pressure boosting from a stored water tank (non-potable use).
  • Light industrial circulation loops.
  • Boiler feed from stored water (not direct mains).
  • Small washdown applications.
  • Non-potable welfare units and mobile accommodation.

The KPM is not self-priming. The water source must be above the pump, or the suction line must be primed with a foot valve.

For applications where the pump sits above the water source, the AKM60 is the self-priming equivalent.

Choosing Between KP50, KPM50, KP80 and KPM80

  • An M at the end of the model name means 230V single-phase KPM50, KPM80.
  • No M means 400V three-phase KP50 and KP80.

The KP(M)80 is the more common specification.

The KP(M)50 is for smaller applications or where only light duty is required.

KF(M) or KP(M)?

Both are Speroni cast iron peripheral pumps with similar flow and head. Choose the KP(M) as the cost-effective option for general light industrial circulation and boosting. Choose the KF(M), with its brass pump body cover, where the pump runs harder or feeds a boiler and you want the more durable industrial build.

The difference is the pump body design.

  • The KPM has a simpler internal layout and is often the cost-effective choice for general use.
  • The KFM has a brass pump body cover and is more common in industrial and boiler feed applications. 

Optional Accessories

A pressure controller adds dry-run protection and automatic start/stop on demand.

Important: WRAS Approval

This pump is not WRAS approved and is not for drinking water supply. It is suitable for irrigation, sprinklers, fire systems, rainwater harvesting, cooling loops, and industrial or agricultural water.

Common questions

What can the Speroni KP(M) peripheral pump be used for?

Clean water only, from 0 to 60°C. It suits pressure boosting from a stored water tank, light industrial circulation loops, boiler feed from stored water, small wash-down jobs and non-potable welfare units. It is not WRAS approved, so it is not for drinking water supply or direct mains connection, and it is not for dirty water, solids or drainage.

Is the KP(M) self-priming?

No. The water source must be level with or above the pump, or the suction line must be primed and fitted with a foot valve. With a foot valve, the maximum suction lift is 7 metres. If the pump has to sit above the water and you want it to prime itself, the Speroni AKM60 is the self-priming equivalent.

See: Speroni AKM60 Self-Priming Peripheral Pump

How much flow and pressure does the KP(M) give?

The KP(M)50 gives up to 35 litres per minute and 35 metres head from 0.37 kW. The KP(M)80 gives up to 50 litres per minute and 55 metres head from 0.6 kW. Peripheral pumps produce high pressure from small motors, so they suit jobs where you need pressure more than flow. The KP(M)80 is the more common choice; the KP(M)50 suits lighter duty.

What is the difference between the KPM and KP models?

An M means 230V single phase (KPM50, KPM80), for a normal domestic or workshop supply. No M means 400V three phase (KP50, KP80), for commercial and industrial sites with a three-phase supply. Both are built to the same specification, with 2 pole IP44, Class F motors rated for continuous duty.

What do I need to install the KP(M)?

Both inlet and outlet are 1 inch BSP female. If the water is below the pump, fit a foot valve and strainer on the end of an airtight suction line and fill the line and pump before starting. The optional pressure controller adds dry-run protection and automatic start and stop on demand, turning the pump into a simple automatic booster.
