Victor Pump - Model S Series -Self-Priming Centrifugal Pumps
Recommended for corrosive and/or abrasive & viscous liquids, compatible with cast iron, bronze, aluminum or stainless steel, which can contain air. The pump can be located above, on side or under the liquid. Some pump sizes can self-prime up to the physical limit of 8 m. Available with various drives such as single phase, three-phase, explosion-proof motors and gasoline or diesel engine. Produced in different versions depending on the specific application.
The pump is normally placed dry above or aside the liquid. In these cases the suction line contains air. The self-priming pump will evacuate all the air. The vacuum produced as the impeller rotates 2 draws air 1 into the pump where it is mixed with the liquid already contained in the pump casing. The air/liquid mixture is driven to the discharge side where the air separates out and is expelled through the discharge port 3 while the liquid, due to the higher gravity, falls back and is reused in the suction side through a small passage. When all the air has been evacuated from the suction line the liquid is pumped, even if air-laden. The high suction port keeps enough liquid inside the casing to allow re-priming any time. The non-return valve in the suction port 4 avoids a backflow of the liquid and reduces priming times.
- With liquids up to 50 mm2/s (cSt), which can contain air, be abrasive, corrosive and compatible with cast iron, bronze or stainless steel. Can be located above, on side or under the liquid. Some pumps sizes can self-prime up to the physical limit of 8-9 m.
- Used by transfer, load and unload, neutralizing, by-pass, spray, circulating, dewatering, irrigation, priming, well-point duty.
- In industry, water treatment, refineries, ship building, environmental projects, construction, agricultural, civil guards.
- Suction and discharge ports are available flanged or threaded (up to 4”). The threaded port have through-holes to take away faster the pipes.
- For easy installation, the DIN or ASA flanged ports have through-holes and ¼” threaded hole for Vacuum meter and manometer.
- Check valve: avoids backflow of liquid from the discharge side and reduces priming times. Available in NBR, Viton® (FKM), PTFE & EPDM.
- Maintenance-free ball bearings.
- Mechanical seal in Sic/Viton® (FKM) with stainless steel shaft sleeve and lubrication behind the seal to improve dry running capabilities.
- Heavy-duty open impeller and wear plate designed for abrasion and passage of solids. On request with cutting device for soft solids.
