ANSI Design
The ANSI standard adopted by NFPA 20 assures a quality design to provide years of reliable operation.

Casing
The casings provide centerline discharge eliminating the need for reverse rotation considerations.  The casings are high quality cast iron with tensile strength of 40,000 PSI.

Impeller
The standard bronze impeller is a single-suction design keyed to the shaft and secured by an impeller bolt.  All impellers are dynamically balanced and have optional wear rings.

Bearings
Grease-lubricated, deep-groove ball bearings are provided in a regreaseable bearing housing.  Bearing life provides an L10 minimum life of 20,000 hours.

Casing Wear Rings
Bronze wear rings provide sealing for minimum recirculation between the suction and discharge areas of the casing.  The rings are staked by stainless steel pins to prevent their rotation.

Stuffing Boxes
Packed with non-asbestos packing with bronze glands.

Shaft Sleeves
To protect the shaft against wear and corrosion, bronze shaft sleeves are provided.
