Features

• Heavy Duty Casings - 300 psi wall thickness increases life under corrosive and erosive conditions. All sizes are self-venting with centerline discharge. Drain plug offered as an option
• Heavy Duty Shaft - Minimum deflection increases life for less maintenance.
• Renewable Shaft Sleeve - Hook type sleeve eases maintenance (easily removed) and is releaved to allow for changes in temperature.
• Power Frame - Heavy duty Power Frame is sealed against contaminants to ensure long bearing life. Water cooled for high temperature applications.
• Oil Lubrication - Oil lubrication is standard. The oil level is maintained by a sight gauge and power frame is vented. Oil may also be water cooled for high temperature application all power frames are jacketed as standard.
• Heavy Duty Thrust Bearing - Double row thrust bearing minimizes shaft end play for more effective stuffing box sealing, longer mechanical seal life, and withstands greater axial and radial thrust loads.
• External Impeller Adjustment - Like new clearance can be maintained with simple external adjustment in just minutes to maintain original high efficiencies.
• Rabbeted Fits - Accurately machined rabbets ensure positive alignment, longer seal life, easy replacement of spare rotating element when maintenance is required.
• Contained Casing Gasket - Protects against blow out.
• Positive Sealing at Impeller - Teflon O-Ring protects shaft from liquid being pumped.
• Fully Open Impeller - is designed with back pump-out vane to minimize axial thrust, and designed to handle solids and stringy material.
• Jacketed Stuffing Box - Is offered for high temperature applications to increase seal or packing life in temperatures up to 500OF (260OC).
• Direction of Rotation -The impeller must turn counter-clockwise when viewed through the suction opening of the pump.
