These figures provide simplified information for searching, filtering and initial comparison. They are not a complete specification. Exact details depend on the model and configuration.
Power rating: Usually the motor’s rated mechanical output (P2). Electrical input power (P1) is a different value. Check the product’s nameplate or manufacturer’s documentation to confirm which rating applies.
Outlet size: The nominal size class is expressed on a millimetre basis: for example, DN40 denotes a nominal 40 mm size. It does not specify the exact measured opening, connection type, thread, flange drilling or pressure rating.
Head and flow: Indicative figures describing the pump’s performance envelope, rather than a single operating duty point. Do not assume maximum flow is available at maximum head, or that every combination within the ranges is achievable. Minimum figures do not establish safe continuous operating limits. Consult the relevant performance curve.
Check the product description, nameplate and manufacturer’s documentation before selection or installation. Please contact us before purchasing if you need help confirming suitability or connection details.

The Flygt MP 3085 is a heavy-duty submersible macerator pump designed for sewage and wastewater applications where solids reduction is required prior to pumping. The macerating hydraulic is intended to reduce fibrous material and suspended solids before discharge, making the pump suitable for demanding wastewater duties where blockage reduction is important.
Flygt is a premium pump manufacturer and part of the Xylem Group, widely recognised for producing high-quality wastewater and drainage pumps used globally.
This pump is supplied as a used pump and may show signs of previous installation, cosmetic wear, paint loss, corrosion staining or marks from service and storage.

Technical note – voltage:
Voltage is shown as 415V in the listing for simplified search purposes.
This is a 3-phase 50Hz pump. The motor can be wired 400V Star or 230V Delta.
Electrical connection must always follow the motor nameplate and be carried out by a qualified electrician in accordance with manufacturer instructions.
This model is intended for pumping sewage and wastewater containing suspended solids and fibrous material. Macerator pumps are commonly used in residential, commercial and agricultural wastewater systems where solids reduction is beneficial before pumping through smaller diameter or pressurised pipework. These systems are often used where gravity drainage is impractical due to terrain, distance or site constraints.
A macerator pump uses a cutting or grinding mechanism to reduce the size of solids and fibrous material before the liquid leaves the pump. This can help reduce the risk of blockage in certain wastewater systems, particularly where smaller diameter discharge pipework is used.
A macerator pump may be selected where wastewater contains wipes, fibres or suspended solids that could otherwise cause repeated blockages. They are commonly used in pressurised sewage transfer systems where solids reduction is preferred over large free-passage hydraulics.
Macerator pumps generally use more complex hydraulics than standard wastewater pumps and may not be suitable for abrasive slurries or applications with large quantities of grit and sand. Correct application selection remains important and performance should always be confirmed against the manufacturer curve and pumped media.
P-designation pumps are intended for fixed guide-rail installations with an automatic discharge connection at the base of the wet well. The pump slides down guide rails and seals automatically onto the discharge connection when lowered into position.
This pump is supplied with a Flygt guide-rail fitting. In some cases, Flygt macerator pumps may also fit certain Lowara guide-rail arrangements, but compatibility should be confirmed before purchase.
Please send photos of your existing guide rails, base connection and discharge arrangement and we can advise on compatibility before purchase.
In many cases, yes. If you provide your existing model number or duty point, we can confirm suitability before purchase.
Please send photos of your current guide rails, base connection and installation arrangement and we can advise on compatibility and the most practical installation method.
