Vertical centrifugal pumps save space
September 17th 2007

When liquids transfer, applications demand a compact, economic and space-saving pump combined with a choice of suction and pressure connections, like the Combiflex vertical single-stage centrifugal pumps.

Available from JP Pumps (a division of the SPX Process Equipment Operation), the Combiflex range of pumps are suitable for transferring thin, clean or slightly contaminated liquids.

Combiflex pumps, which offer maximum capacities to 1500 m3/h, heads up to 100 metres and maximum working pressure of 10 bar, are available in a choice of versions to suit various pumping applications. For example, the K1 and K3 models with spacer-coupling, have the benefit of the top pull-out principle, whereas the K2 and K4 versions have a shorter construction with a standard coupling. Direct mounting to wall or floor is possible.

Other features include: high pumping efficiency, robust design, a top pull-out principle for easy-maintenance and a very rigid shaft construction. Also, a motor mounting flange acts as an adjusting device for exact positioning and alignment of the electric motor while a coupling guard and protective elements between the lantern elements, provide the dual benefits of protecting the rotating parts and all the pumps’ internal parts.
