If pump's motor load is around 33 ampere and 48 volts, how do you calculate the maximum flow and the head? Note the it is a vertical centrifugal pump

The answer depends on the design, size of the pump, how efficient it is, the initial fluid level etc. It is is no actual answer to that question without knowing the design and efficiency.
