Flygt 3069 Submersible Grinder Pump – 2.4 kW, High Head, Made in Sweden
This is an imported Flygt 3069 submersible grinder pump (nameplate 3069.890, impeller code 250), made in Sweden by Xylem Water Solutions. It is fitted with a cutter (grinder) system at the inlet: rotating cutter blades work against a cutting ring to shred solids, rags and fibres into fine particles before they enter the pump. It has a 2.4 kW (approx. 3.2 HP) motor rated 400 V (star) / 230 V (delta), 3 phase, 50 Hz for continuous (S1) duty. It is supplied by Standard Machinery in Imported, Refurbished & Tested condition.
Because the solids are ground down, the pump can push sewage through small-diameter pressure pipelines over long distances and up steep gradients, where gravity sewers are not practical. The impeller code 250 corresponds to Flygt's high-head grinder version of the 3069.

Voltage & Power Note
This pump is rated 400 V (star) / 230 V (delta), 3 phase, 50 Hz. On standard Indian 415 V supply, connect in star, where the rated current is 5.1 A. As stated on the nameplate, the thermal contacts must be connected to the control panel so the motor is switched off if it overheats. Use a DOL starter with overload relay, phase-failure protection and an earth connection.
Safety Note
- The original nameplate carries explosion-proof markings. As this is a refurbished unit, it is not offered as explosion-proof; the explosion-proof certification must be re-verified by an authorised body before any use in hazardous areas
- For sewage and waste water up to 40 °C; not for oil, fuel, solvents or flammable liquids
- Keep hands away from the cutter; disconnect power before inspecting or cleaning the grinder
- Do not install deeper than 20 m below the liquid surface
- Lift the pump only by its handle, never by the power cable
- Always connect the earth conductor before use
Maintenance Tips
- Inspect the cutter blades and cutting ring for wear; worn cutters reduce grinding performance
- Check the oil in the seal chamber regularly
- Test the thermal contact circuit during routine checks
- Clear any packed material from the inlet
- Check motor insulation resistance before installation
- Check running current against the 5.1 A rating after installation
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a grinder pump?
A grinder pump has a cutter system at the inlet that shreds solids, rags and fibres into small particles before pumping. This allows sewage to be pumped through small-diameter pressure pipes without blockage.
What are the motor ratings of this Flygt 3069?
The nameplate shows 2.4 kW, 400/230 V, 3 phase, 50 Hz, 5.1/8.8 A, 2780 RPM, S1 duty, IP68 and insulation class F.
Will it run on Indian 415 V supply?
Yes. Connected in star, it matches Indian 415 V, 50 Hz industrial supply directly.
Where is it made?
The nameplate states it is made in Sweden by Xylem Water Solutions Global Services AB.
Is this pump explosion-proof?
The original nameplate carries explosion-proof markings, but as a refurbished unit it is not offered as explosion-proof. Certification must be re-verified before any use in hazardous areas.
Do you export?
Yes. Standard Machinery supplies across India and exports to Africa, the Middle East and Southeast Asia. Contact us for export packing and shipping details.
