MD Axially Split Casing Double Suction Pump
SMD single stage, double suction, axial split casing pumps are designed to meet the needs of the water market for a wide range of raw, clean, sea and brackish water applications:
• Water abstraction
• Water transport
• Desalination
• Water treatment
• Water supply and distribution
• Irrigation, drainage and flood control
• District cooling/heating
Features and benefits
1 Double suction impeller
• With inherent hydraulic balance of axial thrust
• Exceptional efficiency over a wide range of flows
• Excellent Net Positive Suction Head Required (NPSHR) also in flow run out conditions
2 Double volute casing
• Radial load balancing
• Innovative cut-water design for minimum radial load pulses and reduced vibrations
• Self-draining
• Compact dimensions for reduced bearing span and improved shaft stiffness
3 Ball bearings
• 360° fixation for enhanced stiffness
• Greased for life, deep groove single ball bearings at both drive and non-drive ends
• Maintenance free bearing for three years of continuous operation
4 Easy maintenance
• Single, balanced mechanical seal as standard shaft
sealing
• Dowel pins for alignment of the casing halves
• Precision register fits, adjustment of rotor assembly in the
casing is not needed
• Bearings, bearing nuts, bearing isolators, mechanical seal, shaft seal sleeves are replaceable without removing the upper casing
