Threaded counter flange with rhombus shape is in accordance with Nikuni’s standard. Material of terminal box for TEFC motor (0.31–0.56 kW) is plastic. Motors ≥0.75 kW meet IE3 standard. Two capacitors used on 0.56 kW motors: one for starting, one for running.*
Why the Nikuni KPD Pump Serves Industrial Needs
Robust Construction & Self‑Priming Design
The KPD pump is constructed with cast bronze (CAC) and stainless‑steel components — providing excellent corrosion resistance and durability, which prevents rust and extends service life.
As a monoblock model, the pump integrates motor and pump in a single compact unit, simplifying installation and eliminating alignment issues.
The KPD series features a high self‑priming capability — making it suitable for applications where priming or suction is required.
Stable, High‑Pressure Flow for Medium Flow Rate
Designed for medium flow rate with high head pressure, the KPD maintains stable and reliable performance even under pressure fluctuations.
The regenerative turbine mechanism — with impeller fixed to pump shaft and tight precision tolerances — ensures efficient, long-lasting operation.
Versatile Industrial Applications
The Nikuni KPD pump is ideal for:
Cooling or temperature‑control systems
OEM machine integration
Cooling of welding equipment or machines requiring stable fluid circulation
General industrial fluid transfer requiring corrosion resistance
Benefits for Engineers and Equipment Designers
Durability: Bronze and stainless construction ensure long-term reliability.
Space Efficiency: Monoblock design reduces footprint and installation complexity.
Consistent Performance: Stable flow even under variable operating conditions.
Multi‑Purpose Use: Suitable for diverse industrial environments.
