Design Features of The HLBK type mixed flow turbine pumps
The HLBK type pumps are mixed flow turbine pumps of single or multi –stage design. Standardized assembly groups: bowl, column, discharge head and driver.
Capacity appr. 130 to 23000 m3 / h. Total head up to 250 m. Discharge branch sizes NW 200 to 1600 mm. For larger capacities refer to the factory. Usually the mixed flow turbine pumps are installed in a vertical position taking suction from an open sump and discharging through a 90 degree elbow. They can be mounted , if necessary , horizontally. It is also quite common to lay the pump at an angle on a level or ditch bank. This reduces the cost of the supporting structure.
DESIGN FEATURES
Space Saving
Vertical arrangement saves valuable floor space.
Self Priming
Submerged impellers allow pump to be started without priming. Low initial and operating cost.
Low Operating Cost
High efficiency pump design and high reliability result in lower operating cost.
Long Life – Low Maintenance
Flanged bowls and column pipes for easier assembly – disassembly and perfect alignment.
Design Flexibility
Single or multistage construction with enclosed or semi-open impellers of different design and sizes. Oil, grease, clean or pumped water lubrication. Height adjustable with standard column parts. Four types of discharge heads to meet specific requirements. Discharge elbow under or over floor.
Driven by electric motor, diesel engine, directly or through a right angle gear drive or belt.
