At Pratts, we understand that reliability is non-negotiable. That is why we supply top-tier trade-quality pumps designed to withstand the elements.

Key Features and Benefits of the Davey VM Series:

• Premium Corrosion Resistance: All hydraulic parts are constructed from robust 304 Stainless Steel (304SS) with high-grade 316SD shafts, providing superior resistance to abrasion and corrosion for a significantly longer pump life.
• Simple, Hassle-Free Installation: Every pump comes complete with threaded 304SS companion flanges, gaskets, nuts, bolts, and washers, saving valuable time on-site for installers and plumbers.
• Reduced Maintenance Downtime: The innovative design features rotating elements that can be replaced as a single unit. Hard-faced mechanical seals ensure longevity, with VM16 models and larger utilizing cartridge seals for incredibly fast changeovers.
• Energy Efficient & NZ Standards Compliant: All three-phase motors comply fully with Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) to ensure lower power consumption and reduced operational running costs.
• Whisper-Quiet Operation: Integrated Teflon neck rings reduce vibration, lower noise levels, and resist thermal expansion to maintain peak pump efficiency.
• Sediment Protection: Built with raised bottom bearings to minimize sediment damage and extend the overall life of the bearing.
• Weatherproof and Durable: Boasting an IP55 rating, these motors are perfectly suited for outdoor New Zealand weather conditions. They handle fluid temperatures ranging from -15 to 70 degrees Celsius.
• Powerful Motor Options: Large single-phase motors are available up to 4.0kW to handle heavy-duty residential and light commercial demands.

Electrical and Operational Guidelines:

• Single-phase motors up to 2.2kW run on standard 240V power and include built-in thermal overload protection.
• All single-phase 480V ("/480" models) and all three-phase motors must be wired in with a contractor incorporating quick-trip thermal (M10 rated) overloads.
• All pump packages include stainless steel screwed counter flanges complete with gaskets, bolts, and washers.
