Suction Pumps DIRECT OR BELT DRIVE
Direct drive offers simplicity, ease of
installation and low maintenance
costs. V-Belt drive allows use of readily
available standard speed motors along
with full diameter impellers to meet
desired operating conditions with greater
pump efficiency. Belt drive also provides
flexibility to meet changes in head/
capacity requirements.

EXTERNAL IMPELLER
ADJUSTMENT
Permit restoring running clearance after
abrasive wear without disassembling
pump. Maintains pump efficiency and
performance over life of impeller.

HEAVY-DUTY BEARINGS
Grease-lubricated ball bearings located
over floor plate, completely sealed from
contamination. Roller bearings provided
on larger frame sizes.

BEARING FRAME
Labyrinth seal to prevent
contamination
CANTILEVER SHAFT – NO
BOTTOM BEARINGS
Tapered design to operate safely below
first critical speed. Ideal for remote
locations – no oil or water lines required
to lubricate sub-merged bearings.

HIGH STRENGTH COLUMN PIPE

Rigidly maintains alignment between
bearing frame and casing. Protects
pump shaft, reduces wear.

RENEWABLE SHAFT SLEEVE

Full length hook-type sleeve protects
shaft from traces of abrasive slurry.

THROTTLE BUSHING
Minimizes leakage, helps contain

WITH STRAINER

SEMI-OPEN IMPELLER
Designed to provide optimum
combination of solids handling
capability, wear resistance, and
pump efficiency.

DUAL VOLUTE CASING

Virtually eliminates radial shaft
loading – extends bearing life.
Extra thick wall sections provide
longer life under severe abrasive
conditions.

SUCTION COVER LINER

Renewable liner protects casing
from abrasive wear.
