Blackmer releases ground-breaking centrifugal pump
Diana Aoun | January 10, 2021Blackmer (part of the PSG Dover company), recently launched its new System One High Temperature series centrifugal pump model. This is welcome news to many industries where centrifugal pumps represent a major portion of their critical equipment base but have historically been limited to standard temperature thresholds of around 400° F (or 204° C).
The new System One High Temperature series can be pre-configured to meet specific customer temperature requirements. The range can cater to maximum temperatures of up to 450° F (232° C) with the 450° F Line, 650° F (343° C) with the 650° F Line and even up to 750° F (398° C) with special factory consultation. The pumps have been designed using high temperature-resistant flanges and elastomers, combined with a unique centerline mount that supports high temperatures. Blackmer also utilizes high temperature bushings, fasteners and paint to further enhance reliability and pump life.
Blackmer’s System One Frame A and Frame M centrifugal pumps are some of the most reliable and robust pumps in the industry for heavy-duty applications. Both ranges meet ASME/ANSI dimensional specifications. System One High Temperature series pumps can deliver capacities up to 1,400 gpm (5,299 L/min). The design allows the pumps to transfer valuable fluids in a range of applications including paper, plastic, petrochemical, thermal oils and heat transfer.
