FLOW UP TO 64,350 LPM (Liters per minute)
or 3,861 m3/hr

Features & Benefits

  • Reverse vane impeller is the only impeller design that offers repeatable pump performance throughout the life of the pump. Open impellers available.
  • Durco SealSentry seal chambers feature flow modifiers that extend seal life by providing optimal seal chamber environments.
  • Standard sealed bearing housing with labyrinth bearing isolators to keep lubricant in and contaminants out.
  • Two-piece power end design with self-contained bearing housing reduces maintenance costs and facilitates predictive maintenance.
  • Heavy-duty radial and thrust bearings are selected for long life and reliability.
  • External micrometre impeller adjustment accurately sets impeller clearance in 20 seconds, simplifying maintenance.
  • Rugged shaft and bearing design extends seal life, bearing life and reduces shaft deflection and vibration.

LOWER REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT COSTS

Abrasive wear is on the machinable rear cover, rather than the more expensive casing. Furthermore, there are no costly sideplates, which can provide leak paths.

PROLONGED SEAL AND BEARING LIFE

Balance holes maintain low, predictable seal chamber pressure and thrust loads.

PROVEN POWER END

Durco ANSI 3A reliability the Mark 3 power end incorporates all the proven reliability-, maintenance- and performance-enhancing features of the Durco ANSI 3A power end. These mitigate the risk of mechanical failure under even the harshest operating conditions.

RELIABILITY-ENHANCING CONSTRUCTION

Precision machined, metal-to-metal, inter-connecting faces at the casing, seal chamber, adapter and bearing housing provide reliable sealing and optimum concentricity.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

Industrial Chemical Pumps

In Durco Mark 3 Group 4 High-Capcity centrifugal pumps, fluid enters the impeller through the “eye” and is “centrifuged” (hence the name) to the impeller periphery. As the impeller rotates, it imparts kinetic energy onto the fluid. The impeller vanes have channels with an increasing flow path area. As the flow path area expands, the passing fluid’s velocity decreases and the pressure increases. The fluid then falls to the volute. Due to the unique shape of the volute casing, the fluid undergoes a further velocity decrease and pressure increase. This causes the liquid to be discharged through the discharge port.
