Design Features

  • Casing: Heavy duty, top centerline discharge casing with integral cast feet. Minimum 3mm corrosion allowance. Back pull out design. Standard 3/8” NPT casing drain.
  • Impeller: Precision-cast enclosed impeller design provides maximum efficiency and optimum NPSH performance. Preferred by ISO 5199. Standard back vanes or balance holes reduce axial thrust and seal chamber pressures. Key driven.
  • Shaft Sealing: Patented "Cyclone" Seal Chamber design, engineered to ISO 3069. Supports DIN 24960L 1K compliant seals in single, single with quench, double (back-to-back), or tandem configurations. Cartridge type seals are also possible. Proprietary mechanical seal available.
  • Bearing Frame: Large capacity oil sump. Heavy duty cast iron frame. Magnetic drain plug. Standard double lip seals at pump and coupling end. O-ring seal between frame and adapter.
  • Shaft and Bearings: Rigid shaft designed for less than 0.05mm shaft deflection. Heavy duty ball bearings engineered to provide L10 bearing life in excess of 17,500 hours. Standard 400 series stainless steel shaft (1.4021).
  • Lantern/Frame Adapter: Ductile iron, provides safe and accurate alignment. Large access windows for seal and auxiliary support systems.
