API610 VS2 Type vertical turbine pumps

Description

The pumps comprised within API610 VS2 Type vertical turbine pumps family, are centrifugal pumps, vertical mounted and double suction impeller. That design prevents some of the bad functioning of semi axial vertical pumps, eliminating the source of such potential faults, as unbalanced axial thrust.

The API610 VS2 Type vertical turbine pumps sub-family comprises all one stage pumps. And the API610 VS2 Type vertical turbine pumps sub-family comprises pumps with several stages, one of them as API610 VS2 Type vertical turbine pumps sub-family inside the bulb volute, and all other stages incorporated alongside the suspension column itself.

Double suction vertical suspended centrifugal pumps, API610 VS2 Type vertical turbine pumps, improve the hydro-mechanical performances compare to the traditional vertical pumps, saving costs in their preventive maintenance and overhaul, to help the hydraulic management in medium and big flow applications.
