Impellers
Reliability
With
only one moving part, the tough, long-lived, wear-resistant flexible
impeller design is lubricated by the liquid being pumped and has no
metal-to-metal pumping action - no gears to jam, clog, or make noise.
Self-Priming
Flexible impeller pumps prime instantly with dry suction lifts, up to
10' and once primed lift liquids up to 25'. This allows for cleaner,
safer installations. No foot valve required!
Capacity
Generally, flexible impeller
pumps require less space because they deliver greater flow for weight,
size, and price than other types of pumps. Maintenance
Flexible impellers
can normally be replaced in minutes without disconnecting the pump or
piping system. Maintenance is negligible. Since flexible impellers are
so easy to replace, not to mention inexpensive, a spare should always
be kept aboard in the event of a failure.
Versatility
Flexible impeller
pumps combine the priming features of positive displacement-type pumps
with the general transfer ability of centrifugals. They will pump either
thin or viscous liquids and can handle more solids in suspension than
other types of rotary pumps. They operate efficiently at high or low
speeds, can be mounted at any angle, and pump in either direction with
equal efficiency.
