The VS series
vertical spindle pump has a specialised role in chemical pumping.
Because this pump operates with its volute and impeller immersed
directly in the supply or process tank. It is often the most
convenient method of achieving NPSHR in challenging applications.
The absence of a mechanical seal means that the VS will happily run
without product, making it particularly convenient for those
processes in which it is difficult to guarantee reliable process
fluid supply. This feature can even be utilised to advantage in
those circumstances where top access to a tank is not available, by
side-mounted hard-piping of the pump to the tank at an appropriate
level.
This unit is, of
course, produced with all wetted components in our thermosetting
synthetic resin material and is available in a useful range of
sizes.
