UC Centrifugal Pump

Series 'UC' centrifugal magnetic coupled pumps are seal-less, ANSI dimensional, ETFE lined pumps that are specifically designed for corrosive chemical applications in a wide range of industrial services. The Series 'UC' pump is engineered to provide the utmost in reliability and longer pump life in even the most extreme applications. All wetted surfaces are non-metallic to provide superior chemical resistance. The Series 'UC' pump has a tough ductile iron casing bonded with a pure Tefzel (ETFE) lining. The enclosed impeller and pump liner are precision molded from carbon fiber reinforced ETFE while the pump liner also has an external containment shell of glass reinforced vinyl ester for optimum pressure resistance. The dual impeller bushings, shaft and front and rear thrust rings are sintered silicon carbide. The impeller thrust ring is manufactured from Fluorosint. These components provide exceptional chemical resistance and wear characteristics at all flows. The modified concentric volute and generous impeller balance holes equalize pressure across the entire flow range, allowing minimal hydraulic thrust loads and decreased stress on the impeller. These design innovations provide reduced wear on critical pump components. Series 'UC' pumps also utilize straightening vanes in the suction to prevent "pre-rotation" and reduced turbulence on the impeller for enhanced low flow operation.
