Pumps are designed to transport papermaking stock at consistencies up to 6 % and at pH values of 6.0 to 8.0 and to pump water, polluted liquids and sludges. Depending on process conditions, centrifugal pumps, fan pumps, screw pumps and other pump sorts are delivered. Fan pumps before paper machine headboxes are equipped with special low pulsating impellers.
Pump choice
Pump parameters and types are specified based on mechanical projects. Choosing a single pump the following must be specified:
- Pump positioning in the line
- Pump throughput (min., max.)
- Pump delivery height or delivery pressure
- Stock specification (pumped stock sorts, consistency, pollution)
Design
A basic configuration of the delivered pump can be completed with a frame, an electric motor and a frequency converter.
The pumps are delivered with cord seals. On demand and/or depending on pumped medium a mechanical seal can be used.
