B-SP Bottom Suction Splitcase
The B-SP splitcase pumps are used in a variety of commercial, industrial
& municipal applications but where limitations are placed on the location
of the suction piping. This version of the SP splitcase product line features
a bottom suction connection allowing the pump to connect to existing system
piping located directly below the pump that cannot be moved. This heavy
wall, Francis design, enclosed, bronze impeller provides a very broad
operating range. The casing features an exclusive
Thru-Bore line boring machining operation that greatly simplifies manufacturing
and maintenance. Bearing & bearing housings can be inspected and/or
replaced without removing the top part of the casing. The rotor assembly
also features completely removable and replaceable packing housings/seal
chambers with a replaceable vortex suppressor. The centerline of the pump
has also been increased to ensure that discharge flange does not interfere
with the pump foundation. Each model features 250# cast dimensional flanges
and 420 stainless steel shafting. These industry exclusive features makes
this product adaptable for the building trades, HVAC, cooling tower, steel
mill, mining, power generation, municipal and oil & gas applications.
