Clamped Sideplate For maximum reliability and zero leakage Our sideplate is clamped securely and sealed positively to ensure that it does not lead to breakage or leakage. The “floating” sideplate design must scrape over a casing surface that will be corroded and fouled. This commonly leads to a leakage path through the sideplate studs. Minimum Hydraulic Loads Maximum mechanical reliability Full back shroud — maximizes mechanical integrity Balance holes — Low axial thrust Engineered back vanes — Extended seal and bearing life. ENGINEERED FOR LONG LIFE Back vane height/angle and shroud design are...

Power Ends Designed for Maximum Reliability Power End Reliability is vital when thinking about pump mean time between failure (MTBF). To ensure maximum bearing life, the 3180 follows four key factors: Bearing Design Life Bearing Temperature Bearing Environment Continuous Condition Monitoring Bearing Load Measured on Test Bearing manufacturers state that skidding, cage stresses and oil temperatures can greatly reduce the bearing life of oversized bearings. The “right” size bearing is vital to overall bearing life. Maximized Bearing Life Undersized Bearings Bearing Size Goulds Bearing Sizes Bigger...

Contamination being the second leading cause of bearing failure requires special attention. Common lip seals were not considered due to their 2,000 hour design life. After wearing out, there will be an open passage way for contamination. For this reason, our 3180 is supplied with Inpro VBXXD labyrinth oil seals as standard. The Inpro VBXXD is the industry’s leading bearing isolator and provides the best operating environment for the bearing. Magnetic Seal Bearing Lower Range Bearing Upper Range STANDARD LABYRINTH OIL SEALS Prevent contamination of lubricant for extended bearing life. LARGE OIL...
