Functional engineering application
OVERVIEW The LEO XGM-6B is an industrial-grade 1.5kW (2.0HP) large-volume centrifugal transfer pump designed for rigorous water handling operations across Kenyan industrial, commercial, and agricultural facilities. Engineered with precision hydraulic clearances and high-grade metallurgical components, this pump ensures stable hydraulic throughput, low acoustic signature, and long service life under fluctuating operating conditions. OPERATING PRINCIPLES AND HYDRAULIC DESIGN Equipped with an optimized cast iron impeller, the XGM-6B efficiently converts mechanical shaft energy into hydraulic velocity and static pressure. With a maximum discharge head of 15 meters and peak throughput of 60.0 m3/h (1000 L/min), the unit provides dependable pressure delivery. Port dimensions of 3" G suction and 3" G discharge ensure smooth fluid velocity with minimal internal friction loss. CONSTRUCTION, MATERIALS AND MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS - Pump Body: HT200 Heavy Cast Iron Volute with electro-deposition anti-rust coating - Impeller: Cast Iron Impeller engineered for wear resistance - Mechanical Seal: Carbon / Ceramic / NBR providing positive shaft sealing without fluid weeping - Motor: Continuous duty induction motor (220-240V, 50Hz, 1-Phase), IP44 insulation, Class F ingress protection - Integrated Protection: Built-in thermal overload cut-out on single-phase windings; external overload relay recommended on three-phase installations KENYAN APPLICATION AND INSTALLATION GUIDELINES In East African operational settings, correct plumbing and electrical installation are vital for pump longevity: 1. Suction Plumbing: Install rigid suction piping of at least 3" G diameter. For suction lift duties (up to 8m), always fit a high-integrity foot valve with stainless steel strainer screen to prevent loss of prime. 2. Electrical Protection: Wire the 220-240V, 50Hz, 1-Phase motor through a dedicated motor circuit breaker or contactor with calibrated thermal overload protection. On sites prone to voltage sags, fit an electronic under/over-voltage monitoring relay. 3. Priming: Completely fill the pump wet end and suction line with clean water through the top priming plug before energizing the motor. Never run the pump dry. 4. Foundation: Anchor the pump securely to a level concrete plinth with anti-vibration mountings to avoid pipe stress and bearing misalignment. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE AND STARNEX SPARES SUPPORT Inspect mechanical seal faces and shaft bearings every 2,000 running hours or semi-annually. Lubricate bearings where applicable and clean suction strainers periodically. STARNEX Industrial Spares maintains direct inventory of genuine LEO replacement seals, O-rings, impellers, capacitors, and terminal boxes at our Enterprise Road trade counter in Nairobi.

Common questions on this part
The XGM-6B uses a 1.5kW motor delivering up to 60 m3/h at 15m head, whereas the XGM-6A uses a 2.2kW motor delivering up to 66 m3/h at 18m head.
The lower 1.5kW motor power draws fewer amps, allowing continuous operation on smaller 3.5kVA farm generators while maintaining 1,000 L/min flow.
Maximum suction lift is 8 meters with an airtight foot valve and flooded suction pipe.
Yes, genuine LEO seal kits and replacement pump volute gaskets are in stock.
