1. Modern fabricated suction bell and bowl casing

• Incorporating flow straightener for stable pump performance curve

• Tailor-made bowl diameter to optimize pump selection and efficiency

2. Modern semi-open or enclosed cast impeller design

Best hydraulic fitting and optimum efficiency. Fabricated impeller construction optional 

3. Individually sized pump shaft 

• Sized for maximum torque. Shaft protection sleeves included as standard

• Line shaft connected by split ring, key and sleeve couplings to ease maintenanc 

4. Fabricated column assembly and discharge head 

• Column assemblies have integral spider to improve stiffness

• Segmented elbow to optimize the pump efficiency

• Above- or below-ground discharge to fit the site requirements

5. Product lubricated radial bearings 

• Cutless rubber (phenolic backed) bearing bushings as standard in bowl/lineshaft, other material options are also available

• Two bearings bushings included in the bowl for increased rotor stability

6. Packing shaft seal
