DRIVER
The propeller pump is driven by solid shaft motors or vertical hollow shaft motors.
DISCHARGE HEAD
Elbows are available in both the above base or below base type (as illustrated). The discharge opening can be either plain end or flanged, depending upon requirements.
PUMP SHAFT
The shaft is made of high tensile, pump shaft quality material in 416SS and is sized to operate without objectionable distortion or vibration.
IMPELLER
Heavy duty cast aluminium bronze (stainless steel or ductile cast iron available) are balanced to assure vibration free operation and hand finished for maximum performance. The propeller secured to the shaft by a simple key, split thrust ring and retainer, assures positive drive and adequate locking. The axial flow propeller has a single inlet, available in numerous pitches to allow the flow to enter axially and discharge nearly axially for maximum capacity discharge.
BOWLS
The propeller bowl, generally one stage, is flanged and bolt constructed for ease of assembly. Bowl bearings are of a single type and are available in several materials to extend bowl and shaft life.
SUCTION BELL
Fluids enter through a flared suction bell that is reinforced by heavy vanes, lending support to the bell while guiding the liquid flow parallel to the drive shaft. As fluid travels upstream, maximum efficiency, minimal shock and entry losses are achieved. Effective Vansan strainers restrict entry of any foreign object during pump operation
