Features and Benefits

  • Three- or Four-Vane Axial Flow Propeller is hydraulically balanced via pressure equalizing balance holes and a top propeller hub wear ring to reduced axial down thrust.
  • Outer Flanged Columns are bolted together with through bolts for ease in assembly.
  • Alignment is maintained via centering fits on all parts.
  • Flared Suction Bell provides a smooth waterway entrance to the impeller and has integral splitters to reduce inlet swirl and entrance losses.
  • Stator Case With Integral Diffuser Vanes may be either a single-piece casting or a fabrication.
  • Discharge Elbow may be located above or below ground and at any outlet orientation.
  • Seal Chamber accepts packing or mechanical seal to suit service requirements.
