In particular the RX models are sure to generate interest.
Manufactured in corrosion resistant 304 stainless steel these pumps are designed for clean and dirty water pumping in many process applications.
They will handle suspended soft solids up to 10mm in diameter - for larger solids up to 40mm, versions incorporating a vortex impeller can also be offered.The top discharge design makes the RX ideally suited for partial immersion applications and where space or access is restricted - top discharge eliminates the likelihood of air locks, a not uncommon problem, experienced with side discharge pumps when being used in such situations.
A 416 stainless shaft is fitted with a mechanical seal for greater reliability and longer life, along with with an intermediate oil chamber and inner lip seal providing wear resistance and protection in the event of dry running.
Maximum liquid temperature is 50 degrees C, though limited use up to 90 degrees C is possible for short periods.
A choice of manual or automatic versions in 110 and 230 volts and manual versions in 400 volts enables the RX range to provide cost effective pumping solutions with excellent service and consistent operation in challenging environments.
Head heights up to 23 metres can be accommodated with flows from 140l/min to 450l/min.
