Description
Overview
The BWD12-40 is the larger of the two variable speed booster pumps, with a built-in drive and a pressure transducer that holds pressure constant while demand changes. Where the 1.1 kW model suits a house, this one is sized for lodges, offices and irrigation lines.
It runs at 2.2 kW on a 230 V single-phase supply (drive range 200 V ± 20%, 50/60 Hz). Maximum head is 70 m and the rated duty is 12 m³/h at 35 m, with a peak flow of 17 m³/h and top speed of 4500 rpm. Ports are 2″ (50 mm). The same comfort features carry over: pre-wired 3-point plug, 3-second restart delay and auto-rotation. For a smaller pump, look at the 1.1 kW BWD5-40 or the RUC-1100 smart booster.
Key features
- Constant pressure even with many outlets open
- 2″ (50 mm) inlet and outlet for higher flow
- Protection against dry run, over-current, over/under voltage, overload and abnormal pressure
- Automatic start/stop with a 3-second restart delay
- Auto-rotation timer keeps the bearings turning
Where it works
Use it for clean water duties: a guest lodge in Limpopo, an office block in Gauteng, a packhouse or irrigation head in the Western Cape, handling water from 2 to 80 °C. Install it in a ventilated, undercover spot away from sun, rain and irrigation spray, with rigid pipework rated to 6 bar and an airtight suction line. Drain the casing in freezing weather. It is not for muddy or gritty water. Browse the full water booster pumps range.

Questions about this product
What is the difference between the BWD12-40 and the BWD5-40?
The BWD12-40 is 2.2 kW with 2" ports, 70 m max head and up to 17 m³/h. The BWD5-40 is 1.1 kW with 1.25" ports, 85 m max head and up to 9.5 m³/h. Pick on the flow you need first, then check head.
Does it need a pressure tank?
The built-in pressure transducer and drive hold the pressure for you, so you do not need a conventional pressure tank to get steady delivery. Keep the suction line airtight and primed.
