Foot or shaft centerline mounted for large sizes and high temperatures

2. Branches

• Large suction branches optimize inlet flow
• Reduce noise levels through low branch velocities
• Allow higher forces and moments

3. Impellers

• Several hydraulic sets per pump size guarantee high efficiencies and low operating costs over a wide operating range
• Low net positive suction head required (NPSHR) first stage; double suction first stage can be provided for selected sizes

4. Shaft

Stiff design resulting in higher critical speed than running speed and small shaft deflection. Areas subject to wear are protected
