Product Overview
The Grundfos NBG125-80-160/168 A-F2-B-BAQE is a single-stage, end-suction centrifugal pump engineered for high-capacity fluid transfer in industrial and building services applications. Part of the renowned Grundfos NB/NBG series, this pump features a close-coupled design where the pump is directly mounted to a standard electric motor, ensuring compact installation and precise shaft alignment. The “NBG” designation indicates a pump with a standardized back pull-out design, allowing for easy maintenance and service without disturbing the pipework. The model code 125-80-160 specifies a 125 mm suction port, an 80 mm discharge port, and a 160 mm nominal impeller diameter. The “A-F2-B-BAQE” suffix defines specific mechanical and material configurations, including a BAQE shaft seal (a balanced, cartridge-type mechanical seal with EPDM elastomers) and a cast iron pump housing with a bronze impeller. This pump operates on the principle of converting rotational kinetic energy into hydrodynamic energy, providing reliable, continuous flow for water supply, cooling, and industrial process systems.
