Offers Many Features That Makes GUSHER the Best Pump
For The Job:
-
Heavy Duty Casings - 300
psi wall thickness increases life under corrosive anderosive
conditions. All sizes are self venting with centre line discharge.
Drain plug offered as option.
-
Heavy Duty Shaft Sleeve
- Minimum deflection increases life for less maintenance.
-
Renewable Shaft Sleeve -
Hook type sleeve eases maintenance and is releaved to allow
for changes in temperature.
-
Power Frame - Heavy duty
Power Frame is sealed against contaminents to ensure long bearing
life. Water cooled for high temperature applications.
-
Oil Lubrication - Oil lubrication
is standard. The oil level is maintained by a constant level
oiler and power frame is vented. Oll may also be water cooled
for high temperature application - all power frames are jacketed
as standard.
-
Heavy Duty Thrust Bearing
- Double row thrust bearing minimizes shaft end play for m ore
effective stuffing box sealing, longer mechanical seal life
and withstands greater axial and radial thrust loads.
-
External Impeller Adjustment
- Like new clearance can be maintained through simple external
adjustment in just minutes to maintain original high efficiencies.
-
Rabbeted Fits - Accurately
machined rabbets ensure positive alignment, longer seal life,
easy replacement of spare rotating element when maintenane is
required.
-
Contained Casing Gasket
- Protects against blow out.
-
Positive Sealing at Impeller
- Teflon O-Ring protects shaft from liquid being pumped.
-
Fully Open Impeller - is
designed with back pump-out vane to minimize axial thrust, and
designed to handle solids and stringy material.
-
Jacketed Stuffing Box -
is offered for high temperature applications to increase seal
or packing life in temperatures up to 260°C.
