Chemical process pumps

Product catalog summary
Overview
The PROCHEM chemical process pumps are single-stage horizontal centrifugal pumps designed in accordance with UNI EN 22858 standards. They feature an axial inlet and offer different impeller types: closed impeller (RN - RNS series) for clear or slightly cloudy liquids, and recessed open impeller (RKNS series) for solutions with suspended particles. These pumps are engineered for high fluid dynamics efficiency and reliability.
Specifications
  • Impeller Types: Closed impeller for clear or slightly cloudy liquids; recessed open impeller for solutions with suspended particles.
  • Materials: High-performance mechanical materials to prevent corrosion.
  • Bearings: Rolling-contact oil-lubricated bearings for long life and reliability.
  • Shaft: Heavy-duty pump shaft with low deflection for perfect sealing.
  • Maintenance: BACK PULL-OUT system for easy maintenance.
Operative Limits
  • Capacity (Q): Up to 2600 m3/h
  • Head (H): Up to 140 m
  • Pressure (P): Up to 16 bar
  • Temperature (T): From -50°C to +280°C
  • Diameter (DN): 32 to 300 mm
Applications
The pumps are suitable for use in various industries such as chemical, petrochemical, mining, steelworks, shipyards, pulp and paper, pharmaceutical, textile, food processing, power stations, and desalination plants. They can handle both clear and slightly cloudy liquids (RN, RNS series) and solutions with suspended particles (RKNS series).
Seal Systems
  • Single Mechanical Seal: Available with or without flush, lubricated by the pumped liquid or an external source.
  • Double Mechanical Seal: Flushed by clean liquid from an external source.
  • Soft Packing Seal: Lubricated by the pumped liquid or clean liquid from an external source.
Design Features
  • RN - RNS Series: Closed impeller design for high efficiency and performance, trapezoidal volute casing to reduce loss and increase efficiency.
  • RKNS Series: Open impeller design suitable for viscous liquids and solutions with suspended particles, reinforced support for heavy-duty applications.
Additional Options
Special pumps with cooled seal housing, heated casing, and vertical versions are available upon request.
Design and Materials
The pump casing has a trapezoidal volute to reduce losses and increase efficiency. It uses rolling-contact bearings for long life and reliability, with optional reinforcement according to ISO 5199 standards. The bearing support is robust and lubricated with oil. The impeller has an anti-unscrew device, and the shaft is protected for heavy-duty service.
Technical Data
The document provides detailed technical data, including pump series, material specifications, pressure and temperature limits, and execution types. It lists materials used for various components like casing, cover, wear ring, shaft, impeller, shaft sleeve, and nut cap, with references to relevant standards.
Performance and Dimensions
The document includes performance charts showing flow rates and head measurements in both metric and imperial units. It also provides overall dimensions for different support types and maximum dimensions for electric motors used in standard applications.
Standards and Compliance
The pumps comply with tolerances according to UNI EN ISO 9906 Grade 1. Flanges are specified according to UNI EN 1092 standards for both cast iron and steel pumps.
