A horizontal fiberglass‑reinforced plastic (FRP) centrifugal pump engineered for corrosion‑resistant liquid transfer in industrial processes. The pump wet-end components are molded from polyvinyl butyraldehyde‑modified phenolic fiberglass, delivering a combination of low weight, high strength, dimensional stability and elevated temperature resistance. The design emphasizes parts interchangeability and straightforward disassembly for fast maintenance.
Key features
- Corrosion resistance: FRP construction resists a wide range of non‑oxidizing acids (examples: hydrochloric, formic, acetic, butyric acids) and other corrosive media that do not contain solids or tend to crystallize.
- Thermal limits: Suitable for liquids with temperatures up to 100 °C.
- Durable sealing: WB2 external (fitted outside) F4 corrugated mechanical seal provides reliable sealing performance and extended service life.
- Drive and rotation: Direct motor drive through a claw‑type flexible coupling; pump rotates clockwise when viewed from the motor end.
- Serviceability: Modular construction with high parts interchangeability for quicker repairs and lower downtime.
- Metal replacement: In many corrosive applications this FRP pump can substitute for more expensive metal alloys (e.g., molybdenum‑containing stainless steels, titanium alloys), reducing capital and lifecycle costs.
Typical applications
Petrochemical plants, refining, dye and pigment manufacture, textile printing and dyeing, pesticide and fertilizer production, pharmaceuticals, rare earth processing, leather processing and other chemical industries where aggressive, non‑oxidizing corrosive liquids must be handled.
Operational guidance & installation notes
- Do not use with liquids containing abrasive solids or with fluids that readily crystallize.
- Verify liquid temperature remains ≤100 °C to maintain material performance.
- Ensure correct rotation (clockwise from motor end) and proper alignment of the flexible coupling at installation to avoid premature wear.
- Inspect the mechanical seal periodically and follow recommended replacement intervals for process reliability.
