Mechanical / hydraulic

  • Design: Centerline mounted casing, radially split casing, opposed impellers arrangement.
  • Shaft: Heavy-duty shaft designed for minimum deflection, meeting API 610 / ISO 13709 deflection and rotor dynamics requirements.
  • Wear Rings: Renewable wear rings with API 610 / ISO 13709 running clearances, positively locked.
  • Bearings:
    • Heavy-duty radial bearing standard.
    • Heavy-duty thrust bearing: Duplex 40° angular contact standard, ring oil lubricated. Other bearing configurations available.
  • Casing: Centerline mounted casing with heavy-duty mounting extensions to accept API 610 / ISO 13709 nozzle loads and maintain pump alignment. Radially split casing designed for high pressure/temperature services, with fully confined controlled compression gaskets.
  • Flanges: CLASS 300 RF FLANGES STANDARD; other classes and facings optional.
  • Seal Chambers: Enlarged seal chambers conform to API 610 / ISO 13709 dimensional requirements, allowing use of a wide range of API 682 / ISO 21049 cartridge mechanical seals.
  • Maintenance: Casing head on outboard end allows removal of rotor without disturbing suction and discharge piping.
  • Materials: Available in a wide range of materials, including all API 610 constructions and custom application needs.
  • Hydraulics: Engineered hydraulics with dense coverage to better match processes for efficiency and reliability; custom hydraulics are available.
  • Hydraulic Coverage: The provided hydraulic coverage charts illustrate flow capacity and total dynamic head for 50 Hz and 60 Hz operation, representing 80% to 110% of best efficiency point (BEP). See the official PDF for exact tabulated values.
  • Packaging: Engineered packaging with a wide range of drivers, seals, piping, nozzle configurations, flanges, base plates, and QC testing.

Applications

  • Petroleum refining, production, and distribution
  • Petrochemical and demanding chemical processing
  • High temperature applications, including boiler circulation
  • General industrial applications requiring high temperature or high pressures
  • Refinery specific applications: Process feed, reflux, splitter bottoms, high-pressure process transfer
