Features
Wetted Parts:
Impellers – wide variety of metallurgic and elastomeric options (metal and elastomer interchangeable) – pump out vanes on rear and front (on closed impellers) reduce recirculation within pump, and aid in preventing seal contamination – optional castings of straight or semi-Francis vanes (from 3 to 8 vanes on certain sizes) offer wider hydraulic options in single sizes
Liners – wide variety of metallic and elastomeric options (metal and elastomer liners are interchangeable) to select from in order to provide the longest wear life possible
Seal Arrangements:
Expeller (Centrifugal Seal) – no external sealing water required where applicable
Stuffing Box – flushed gland sealing with braided packing and a lantern ring
Mechanical Seals
Bearing Assembly:
Cartridge – style bearing housing allows for removal from pump and assembly in controlled environment
Oversized shaft diameters and reduced overhang in the wet-end contribute to long life and reliability in the field
