Overview of Split case pumps
A split casing pump's casing is split vertically or horizontally to provide maintenance access to the internal components of the pump. These pumps are between-the-bearing pumps because the impeller contains bearings on both sides. Split pumps are more effective than frame-mounted pumps because they feature a more firmly planted impeller.
The most popular and effective split case pumps are horizontal. Due to their between-the-bearings design, they are also stable at varying speeds and can function in a range of suction orientations.
CRI Fluids offers ECW series Horizontal Split Case single stage double suction centrifugal pumps. They are designed to deliver a higher rate of flow at the designated operating head. They have a rigid structure and come with a top pull out design. Some common applications are water supply, irrigation, HVAC, firefighting.
Frequently asked questions
1. What is the difference between an end suction pump and split case pump?
Horizontal split case pumps are double suction pumps and can handle a large amount of water. End suction pumps are single suction pumps. Split case pumps are comparatively more durable and easier to maintain when compared to split case pumps.
2.What are the benefits of a split case pump?
Features like in-between-bearing designs of the split case pump enable them to keep on working for longer periods without needing frequent maintenance.
