Product catalog summary
Overview
SPX Corporation, based in Charlotte, North Carolina, is a global leader in multi-industry manufacturing. The Johnson Pump brand offers heavy-duty gear pumps designed for reliability and longevity, suitable for transporting a wide range of liquids from diesel fuels to chocolate.
Product Ranges
The TopGear series is divided into three ranges:
  • TG G-range: General purposes.
  • TG H-range: High demanding applications.
  • TG L-range: High efficiency for low viscosity fluids.
Additionally, the TG MAG offers a magnetically driven option for leak-free operations.
Design Features
  • Improved priming and low NPSH with ports above centerline and oversized ports.
  • Optimized gear tooth profile for smooth flow in low and high viscous media.
  • High efficiency with axial rotor locking and adjustable clearances.
  • Eliminated leakage during thermal expansion with pin cover and safety seals.
  • Prolonged service life with double ball bearing design and adjustable axial clearance.
  • Minimal maintenance due to cartridge design.
  • Maximized lifetime with compact rotor and strong shafts.
  • Less downtime with front and back pull-out.
  • Flange connections available in EN and ANSI standards.
Technical Data
TopGear pumps are used in various industries such as petrochemicals, chemicals, paint and ink, pulp and paper, and food. They handle a wide range of liquids including bitumen, diesel oil, acids, resins, chocolate, and more.
Operating Principle
The pump operates by creating an under-pressure as the rotor and idler unmesh, allowing liquid to enter cavities. The liquid is transported in sealed pockets to the discharge side, where it is pushed into the discharge line.
Material and Capacity Specifications
  • Pump casing materials include cast iron, stainless steel, and ductile iron.
  • Idler and rotor materials include steel, iron, and stainless steel.
  • Maximum capacity ranges from 8 to 250 m³/h, with differential pressure up to 30 bar and temperatures up to 300°C.
  • Viscosity handling ranges from 5,000 to 80,000 mPas.
Options
  • Shaft seal options include packed gland, mechanical seals, lip seals, and cartridge seals. Magnetic drive available as TG MAG.
  • Jacket options for heating and cooling include thermal oil, steam, or electrical heating.
  • Safety relief valve options include built-on and double safety relief valves for bi-directional use.
