Feed water
These pumps are designed to handle:
- Clean and slightly contaminated liquids
- Viscous liquids
- Low-consistency fibrous slurries
- Liquids in applications with small pressure pulsations
Mechanical / hydraulic
- Impeller:
- Double entry impeller.
- Double suction impeller with split, staggered, and skewed vanes for high efficiency and low Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) values.
- Low pulsation impellers are available for stringent paper machine head box applications.
- ZPP: Impeller installed on the shaft by strong interference fit without keyway, designed for easy hydraulic disassembly.
- Casing:
- Axially split, heavy-duty horizontally split casing.
- Allows inspection, maintenance, and removal of the rotating unit without disturbing piping or motor.
- Available with single volute for lower head and double volute for higher head applications.
- Designed for low radial loads on bearings and low shaft deflection, extending seal and bearing life.
- Casing wear rings:
- Renewable casing wear rings protect the casing from wear and assure smooth flow, improving efficiency.
- Easy to maintain correct clearance.
- Wear ring locked in lower casing to prevent rotation.
- Shaft:
- Heavy-duty shaft for high corrosion and wear resistance, plus high strength.
- Reduced shaft deflection for extended seal and bearing life.
- Duplex stainless steel shaft.
- Shaft sealing (Versatile):
- Stuffing box: External or internal sealing liquid; ZPP features a split stuffing box gland and lantern ring with withdrawal grooves for easy service.
- Mechanical seal: Different mechanical seals available; ZPP seals fit into the same chamber as packings, allowing easier change to another type of sealing.
- Bearing unit:
- ZPP: Long lifetime with high thrust spherical roller bearings (identical on both sides); Grease or oil lubrication; Effective bearing protection by non-contact wear-free labyrinth seals and deflector; No adjustments needed for quicker assembly.
- Z22: Long lifetime with high thrust angular contact ball bearing for axial load and deep ball bearing for radial load; Grease lubrication as standard.
- Flexible installation:
- Single and dual drive alternatives.
- Horizontal or vertical installation for compact setup.
- Some Z22 sizes are available in angled execution.
