Pump:

The pump consists mainly of the pump pressure casing, impellers, pump shaft, diffusers, and pump shaft sealing.

The water penetrates the impeller via the suction inlet. This process is called axial feed, since the water flows in the direction
of the central axis.
The water which enters through the suction inlet is then seized by the impeller (impeller blades); thereby the water is deflected by
90° and flung out of the impeller in the direction vertically to the shaft.

The water delivery depends mainly on the effect of centrifugal force, therefore this type of pump is called a centrifugal pump.
Between the impeller and the diffuser, there is a small gap and the diffuser, fixed on the pump casing, is stationary. The gap is
necessary in order to prevent the impeller and diffuser from touching.

The energy of a streaming liquid is composed of velocity and pressure forces and the

energy of velocity will be transformed into pressure.

The water is discharged from the impeller at high velocity and this transformation of velocity into pressure takes place in the diffuser.
The cross sectional area through which the water passes from entering the diffuser until leaving it, is enlarged gradually.
The velocity decreases while the streaming quantity remains unchanged.

Discription of the centrifugal pump R600:

The pump R 600 is a double-stage centrifugal pump.

The pump shaft, made of stainless acid-proof steel, runs in the gearbox or lantern
respectively and in the pump casing on a ball bearing and in the suction cover on a
"maintenance free" slide bearing.

Axial face seal seals the pump on the pressure side.

The centrifugal water pump, impeller and diffuser are made of

corrosion resistant light alloy or gunmetal.

Mechanical Sealing Ring

The mechanical sealing ring is installed in the pump housing and seals the pump
shaft to the housing.
Fully maintenance free.
Min. 3.000 hrs life circle; max. 3 min dry run

Mechanical Sealing Ring

Working principle mechanical seal:

The mechanical seal consist of:

Seal face, seat, O-rings and a coil spring.

The seal face turns with the pump shaft

and the coil spring press it to the seat
who is installed in the pump housing.

The contact area of the two rings is very

smooth and wont allow water leaking
through.
