SUMP-GARD^® SGKOVERVIEWFEATURESENGINEERING SPECIFICATIONS (PDF)

Features

1. Rugged thermoplastic vertical pump with cantilevered shaft eliminates the need for immersed bearings, allowing for indefinite dry-run capability.
   
   
2. Large diameter stainless steel shaft isolated from the fluid by a thick-sectioned thermoplastic sleeve.
   
   
3. Heavy duty external ball bearings above the cover plate, housed in an epoxy-coated cast iron motor bracket that accommodates NEMA, IEC and European standard motors.
   
   
4. Casing, casing cover and impeller injection molded of solid, homogeneous thermoplastics. Structurally reinforced columns and other components in fluid contact to be of similar thermoplastic material.
   
   
5. All immersed pump parts and hardware are homogeneous thermoplastics. No metal in fluid contact, eliminating metallurgical specifications for chemical compatibility.

6. Quiet running, durable flexible coupling to isolate motor from hydraulic thrust force.
   
   
7. Non-metallic vapor seal to protect ball bearings and metal motor bracket assembly from corrosive fumes.
   
   
8. Dynamically balanced (semi-open or closed) impeller with imbedded, molded-in stainless steel insert with keyway for positive drive.
   
   
9. Standard or custom thermoplastic sump cover plate resistant to the corrosive liquid or vapor.
   
   
10. Perforated strainer basket available in a broad range of solid thermoplastic materials.
