About this product
The Flowserve FRBH pump, specifically designed for the pulp and paper industry, is a single stage, radially split, end suction centrifugal pump with a semi-open overhung impeller.
Features and Benefits
Self-Venting, Top Centerline Discharge Casing with unobstructed suction prevents trapped air to maintain efficiency and flow Keyed Semi-Open, Full Vane Impeller prevents clogging in thick, pulpy applications and is less sensitive to end clearance adjustment
Recessed impeller available for low-shear applications
Three-Point End-Clearance Adjustment resets impeller clearance to restore performance and efficiency
Extra Heavy-Duty, Alloy Steel Shaft minimizes problems associated with overhang, deflection and vibration
Stainless steel available.Contoured Wearplate at the impeller suction side protects casing and prolongs pump efficiency
“Dry-shaft” Construction, using sealed impeller nut and key driven stainless steel hook sleeve, eliminates shaft corrosion
Optional Large Conical Seal Housing allows the seal to be installed in the liquid directly behind the impeller, eliminating the need for a separate seal water flushing source
Optional Flow Inducer significantly improves suction performance by reducing pump NPSHR
Optional Expeller forces fluid from the seal chamber, minimizing shaft wear
Positioned behind the impeller, the expeller eliminates the need for costly flush water and the resulting product dilution
