Choose the Right BLC Series Pump
The BLC Series covers a broad range of irrigation, water-transfer and pressure applications. When selecting a pump, maximum flow and maximum head should not be considered in isolation. A centrifugal pump’s actual operating performance depends on the required flow rate and total dynamic head of the system.
For irrigation and water-transfer applications, the pump should be selected according to the required duty point, taking into account:
- Required flow rate
- Required operating pressure
- Static lift
- Pipe diameter and length
- Pipe friction losses
- Filters and other system restrictions
- Irrigation equipment requirements
- Required pressure at the point of use
WTS can help select a BLC Series pump based on your required flow, pressure and system requirements.

Single-Phase Power Cable
Single-phase models are supplied with a 1.2 m, 10 A-rated H05 flex cable with AS/NZ 3112 Type 1 three-pin male power plug.
Understanding Maximum Flow and Head
The maximum flow and maximum head figures shown above represent the operating limits of each pump and occur at different points on the pump’s performance curve.
For example, a pump listed with a maximum flow of 160 L/min and maximum head of 30 m will not deliver 160 L/min at 30 m head.
The correct pump should therefore be selected using the manufacturer’s performance curve and the required system duty point. This is particularly important for irrigation systems, where pipework, filters, valves, elevation and sprinkler requirements can significantly affect the pump duty.
WTS can help select the appropriate BLC Series pump for your irrigation or water-transfer application.
Why Choose the BLC Series?
- Stainless steel construction
- Compact multistage design
- Single- and three-phase options
- High-flow capability
- Continuous-rated motors
- Automatic thermal protection on single-phase models
