Moving aggressive or volatile process fluids through closed-loop systems requires high-integrity mechanical components. This horizontal unit integrates directly into existing pipework to facilitate rapid, high-volume transfer while maintaining absolute structural neutrality. The configuration allows for continuous, stable operation in environments where traditional cast iron alternatives would rapidly degrade, ensuring longevity and system uptime across challenging industrial, cooling, or chemical treatment applications.
Performance parameters for this assembly are calibrated for rigorous output demands, reaching a Max Head of approximately 32.4 m and a Max Flow of approximately 233 L/Min. The drive system utilizes a 1.39 kW motor operating at 220-240v, pulling a rated current of 6.27 Amps. These metrics define the operational threshold for handling high-purity or chemically active liquids where volume displacement must remain constant under fluctuating back-pressure conditions.
Fluid dynamics are governed by a multistage arrangement composed of AISI 316 stainless steel components, which effectively manage internal pressure distribution to minimize turbulence. The hydraulic design promotes efficient kinetic energy transfer, ensuring that the liquid column remains energized throughout the transition from suction port to discharge. This configuration provides a stable, surge-free flow profile, which is critical for protecting sensitive downstream instrumentation and maintaining precise thermal regulation within large-scale circulation loops.
Housing and structural integrity are reinforced by a TIG-welded AISI 316 stainless steel casing designed to resist mechanical stress and chemical erosion. The assembly is supported by a TEFC motor protected to IP 55 standards, with insulation class 155 (F) to ensure thermal stability during heavy-load cycles. Connectivity is provided through 40 mm suction and 32 mm discharge ports, enabling a streamlined installation footprint that accommodates existing 2-pole horizontal pump mounting geometries.
Features:
- Certified for contact with high-purity potable liquids per international standards
- Silicon carbide mechanical seal surfaces for enhanced wear resistance
- EPDM elastomer components for broad chemical compatibility in industrial loops
- Externally ventilated asynchronous squirrel-cage motor technology
- TIG-welded casing construction providing structural rigidity under high system pressure
- Horizontal orientation allowing for simplified maintenance access and serviceability
FAQs
General Product FAQs
