NEMO BY-Bilge

Regular maintenance is crucial to ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your bilge pump system, particularly when dealing with sludge and oily water. Netzsch’s NEMO BY-Bilge progressive cavity pump is designed for these challenging applications, offering a robust solution that can handle flows ranging from 5 to 150 m³/h and heads up to 200 meters. The pump comes in four size ranges—NM 015, NM 021, NM 031, and NM 045—and features approximately 40 different variants to suit various operational needs. Constructed with a stator/rotor design and multiple elastomer options, the NEMO BY-Bilge is driven by an electric motor, making it versatile for different environments. To maintain reliability, it’s essential to avoid dry running, which can lead to significant damage such as stator wear, joint wear, rotor scoring, and other issues. Regular inspections of the stator are recommended every 12,000 hours to prevent these common failures. Replacement parts like the Netzsch stator, rotor, and joints are readily available, ensuring that your pump can continue operating efficiently for years to come. Since its introduction in 1985, the NEMO BY-Bilge has been a trusted choice for handling challenging media in maritime applications.
