Model CUP-FT/FK -Multistage Pump
ClydeUnion Pumps has been designing and manufacturing multistage throughbolt and boiler feed pumps for nearly 100 years. The ClydeUnion Pumps CUP-FT/FK (2 Pole) is a world class product range designed for boiler feed applications, meeting the demands of modern thermal, combined cycle and solar power plants. Our extensive engineering, manufacturing and operational experience has been incorporated in the design of the 2 pole diffuser pump CUP-FT/ FK (2 Pole). A radially split case diffuser type pump with options for throughbolt (FT) or barrel case (FK), designed for low, intermediate and high pressure and temperature applications. A world leading product, with features such as optimum hydraulic design, sustainable efficiency, and the inherent ability to withstand thermal shock, the CUP-FT/FK (2 Pole) range pump offers reliable operation and low through life cost of ownership.
