Gianneschi CG22-110 Centrifugal Pump C1Bf 230/50/60 0.55Kw
If you're looking for a dependable bronze centrifugal pump that can handle everything from onboard water circulation to industrial fluid transfer, the Gianneschi CG22-110 C1Bf earns its reputation. Built with a solid bronze body and bronze impeller mated to a 316 stainless steel shaft, this pump is designed to move clean or lightly particulate liquids at a steady, medium-pressure flow. The 0.55Kw single-phase motor runs on 230V at 50 or 60Hz, making it a flexible fit for both European and North American electrical setups without needing a separate frequency conversion.
What sets this pump apart isn't just the materials, it's the versatility. While Gianneschi built its name in the marine industry, this pump shows up just as often in air conditioning systems, sanitary water plants, and general water circulation setups that have nothing to do with boats. Its threaded BSP ports make installation and future maintenance straightforward, especially when paired with a three-piece union fitting for easy disconnection down the road. Keep in mind this is a non-self-priming design, so it needs to sit below the fluid source to maintain prime and perform reliably.
Whether you're replacing a worn-out original unit or specifying a pump for a new build, the CG22-110 C1Bf delivers the kind of consistent, continuous-duty performance that keeps water systems running without surprises. It's a straightforward, no-nonsense workhorse built for anyone who needs reliable water movement, on the water or off it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the Gianneschi CG22-110 self-priming?
A: No, this pump is not self-priming. It must be installed below the level of the fluid source so gravity keeps the pump primed and ready to run.
Q: Can this pump handle both fresh water and seawater?
A: Yes, thanks to its bronze construction and stainless steel shaft, the CG22-110 is well suited for both fresh water and seawater applications.
Q: Does this pump work on both 50Hz and 60Hz power?
A: Yes, the motor is rated for 230V single phase power at either 50Hz or 60Hz, so it adapts to different regional electrical standards without modification.
Q: What kind of fluids can this pump move safely?
A: It's designed for clean fluids or liquids with only slight particulates. It is not rated for flammable fluids or use in explosion hazard environments.
Q: What fitting is recommended for installation?
A: A three-piece pipe union is recommended at both the suction and discharge ports to make future maintenance and pump removal easier.
