Specifications

  • Electric motors are all Class H insulated and have a minimum 1.25 service factor.
  • Pumps are equipped with a unique lip seal system to prevent material from penetrating the seal.
  • High quality materials ensure long life of all components.
  • Temperature sensor, embedded in the electric motor, and Moisture sensor, in the oil chamber, are available options to protect the pump in the most demanding application.
  • Adjustable Hi-Chrome suction side Wear Plate maintains maximum performance for extended periods by a simple adjustment of the gap between the wear plate and the impeller.
  • Replaceable wear parts: casings, impellers, wear plates all can be replaced independently.
  • Lube Oil Inspection Ports: a wideangle port outside the pump ensures easy inspection of shaft seal oil levels as well as providing easy access for oil replacement.
  • The excavating action is created by the Hi-Chrome agitator blades that lift settled sediments which then get sucked into the pump, creating a continuous flow of concentrated slurry.
