Product Benefits
- Easy maintenance due to back pull-out design.
- Safe design: all pressure-retaining components cast with extra corrosion/wear allowance.
- Wear-resistant standard pump in diagonal gap design with suction-side wear plate.
- High levels of efficiency with channel-type impeller, impeller with front vanes and diagonal gap; back vanes reduce axial thrust.
- Dry shaft: no special materials required.
- Reinforced, adjustable bearing assembly design.
- Optimum circulation around the mechanical seal, venting and drainage of the shaft seal chamber due to the mechanical seal fitted in a conical shaft seal chamber.
