U Series®

U Series® pumps are among the most efficient self-priming, solids-handling pumps available. Their unique hydraulic design and smooth wall volute casing minimize friction loss and drag. The multi-vane, open impeller is designed for high efficiency operation yet can still handle limited solids. The pumps not only deliver high efficiencies (up to 75%), they also perform efficiently across a broad operating range. Varying machine loads that cause pumps to operate right or left of its best efficiency point will affect operating efficiency by only a very small percentage.

Features

High Efficiency Design

U Series pumps are the most efficient self-priming centrifugal pumps available. Their unique hydraulic design and smooth-wall volute casing minimize friction loss and drag, allowing them to operate at efficiencies of up to 75%.


High Efficiency Impeller

Multi-vane, semi-open impeller is designed for high efficiency. Constructed of ductile iron, the impeller will handle up to 1-1/4" (32 mm) diameter.


Exclusive Abrasion-Resistant Seal

Exclusive double-floating, self-aligning oil lubricated mechanical cartridge seal with stationary and rotating face of silicon caride is specifically designed for abrasive industrial wastewater service.


Removable Cover Plate

Removable cover plate provides quick and easy access to pump interior without disconnecting piping. Clogs can be removed and pump returned to service in minutes. Impeller, seal and replaceable wearplate can also accessed through cover plate opening.


Replaceable Wearplate

U Series pumps feature replaceable wearplates which fasten to the cover plate and can be easily removed for inspection or service. No expensive castings to replace.


Drive Variations

U Series pumps are available as basic units for connection to customers' power source or can be flex-coupled or V-belt driven by an electric motor.
