Performance Features for
Extended Pump Life
Labyrinth Seals
For maximum chemical resistance prevent premature
bearing failure caused by lubricant contamination or loss
of oil. Non-contracting unitized design for ease of
maintenance assembly.

Back Pullout
Back pullout feature provided as standard on sizes through
36” (914 mm). Allows for ease of maintenance.

Adjusting Lugs for Ease of Adjustment


Adjusting bolts allow for precise, easy alignment of both
the impeller clearance and stuffing box runout. Precise
alignments minimize pump life cycle cost.

Oil Cooling
An oil cooling option is available on 12” and larger sizes to cool the oil bath.
Used when process temperatures cause excessive heat build up in the bearing housing
and or bearings..

Elbow Liner
Precision-made replaceable liners between impeller and
casing are offered as an option to ensure continuous high
efficiency.

Taperbore Seal Chamber (cast sizes only)


Enlarged, tapered bore for increased life of mechanical
seals through improved lubrication and cooling.
Accommodates current cartridge designs.

Rugged Design Features for Wide Range of Services

STANDARD LABYRINTH OIL SEALS

BI-DIRECTIONAL THRUST BEARING


(6-36” sizes)

EXTRA LARGE OIL SUMP


Increased oil capacity provides better
heat transfer for reduced oil
temperature. Bearings run cooler and
last longer.

FOUR-POINT MOUNTING
Decreases the effects of pipe load on
the pump. (6-36” sizes)

EXTRA HEAVY DUTY SHAFT


Long bearing span and large diameters
reduce shaft deflection, extend mechanical
seal and bearing life.

STAINLESS DRIP PAN


Standard pan catches any drips and
connects to drain piping to eliminate
damage from leaks.

BUILT-IN ADJUSTING LUGS


Supplied as standard for ease
of maintenance.

TAPER BORE STUFFING BOX (CAST SIZES ONLY)


Designed specifically for today’s cartridge seals.
Optional packed box with sleeve available. Fabricated
sizes use a straight bore box for packing or
mechanical seals.

CAST OR FABRICATED ELBOWS
Fabricated pumps and some larger sizes
of the cast pumps have a separate casing
bolted to the elbow to simplify access to
the propeller.

OPTIONAL REPLACEABLE LINE

HIGH EFFICIENCY IMPELLER


Available in multiple vane angles. Available
in Top or End Suction configurations.
