Vertical turbine pump does not require a water source that provides a positive suction pressure. As such, this type of pump is able to operate without priming. The typical supplies for these pumps are underground tanks or wells. When operating, these pumps force water up through the column pipe to the pump discharge. The line shaft turbine pumps have above-ground discharge.
The primary components comprising a VT pump along with their MOC and salient features are detailed below:-
1. INTERMEDIATE BOWL - CAST IRONSMOOTH FINISH AND SUPERIOR GRADE OF FG 220Enhances efficiency
RIB REINFORCED FLANGEAdds strength and rigidity to bowl to withstand installation and transportation stresses.
2. UPTHRUST CUSHION - SSCompensates for possible momentary upthrust occurring at start up.
3. IMPELLER - BRONZEENCLOSED DESIGNProduces optimum pressure versus capacity and allows for optional wear ring installation.
BALANCEDReduces vibration and wear
IMPELLER VANE DESIGNDesigned for the most efficient operation
4. BOWL SHAFT - 410 STAINLESS STEELSTRAIGHTNESSTurned, ground and polished. They are designed to transmit required torque and handle the imposed, hydraulic thrust loads with minimum deflection in any flow condition
5. DISCHARGE COLUMN ADAPTER RING - CAST IRONINTERCHANGEABLE SIZES AVAILABLEEasily changed for various pipe sizes
6. MOTOR ADAPTER - DUCTILE IRONOPEN, RIBBED DESIGNDirects fluid flow to the bowl assembly with minimum turbulence while providing maximum motor support.
STAINLESS STEEL INLET SCREENNon-corrosive, restricts entry of foreign objects with size more than 6mm.
7. CABLE GUARD - STAINLESS STEELPrevents damage to the motor leads during installation
8. MOTOR COUPLING - STAINLESS STEELRIGIDTransmits torque and maintains shaft alignment
9. LINE SHAFT BEARINGS – RUBBERMAXIMIZE SERVICE LIFEThey are water lubricated and spaced no more than 10 ft apart to ensure adequate centering of the line shaft within the column.
10. BOWL WEAR RINGS – BRONZEENSURE PROPER ALIGNMENTThey are permanently fixed in the bowl to eliminate any possibility of rotational and axial movement.
ADVANTAGESThe vertical turbine pump is ideal for
