Features
- Robust design for long service life and low maintenance costs:
- Casing with centreline pump feet ensures reliable operation and correct alignment at high temperatures.
- Volute casing with double volute (from DN 80) reduces radial forces and shaft deflection, reducing load on bearings and mechanical seals.
- Robust and cost-effective component seal usable across a wide pressure and temperature range.
- Long service life and high level of reliability of bearings:
- Oil lubrication with constant level oiler and labyrinth seal.
- Angular contact ball bearings in triple arrangement, dimensioned for high inlet pressures and bearing life over 17,500 hours (L10h).
- Optimised shaft and individual selection of balancing holes ensure reduced axial forces, low vibrations, and long service life of bearings and shaft seal.
- High system availability due to efficient cooling:
- Intensive cooling of the seal chamber via replaceable high-efficiency cooling insert.
- Additional cooling via tube-in-tube heat exchanger is possible if required.
- Effective self-cooling of the bearing bracket through integrated cooling fins and optional fan impeller.
- Bearing bracket with water cooling available on request.
- Ease of maintenance:
- Back pull-out design and forcing screws allow for easy dismantling and maintenance.
- Replaceable casing and impeller wear rings.
- Constant level oiler ensures even lubrication of the bearings and makes it easy to check the oil level.
- Modular design system reduces spare parts stock.
