Floway®
VHP API 610 Vertical Turbine Pump
The Floway® VHP pump is API 610 current edition compliant, vertical close coupled, single or multistage turbine pump, with a fabricated discharge head, top mounted motor, and wet pit (VS1) or closed suction (VS6).
The Floway® VHP can withstand higher pressures with premium efficiencies and low operating costs. The available low-NPSH impeller allows for a reduced barrel length. The pump bowl assembly is characterized as low energy per stage resulting in a broad flow range with excellent hydraulic stability.
The “O” ring joints throughout pump eliminates leaking for higher pressure applications. A throttle bearing provides shaft support and allows for higher operating pressures.
