Belt Driven ANSI Pump
This ANSI pump design demonstrates how to overcome issues such as space and low NPSH.
An Australian mine site required a pump to transfer flammable liquid, however there were space restrictions, low NPSHa, and the area was classed as hazardous.
By belt driving this Magnatex ANSI pump Process Pumps was able to achieve a compact footprint, reduce the pump speed by selecting the correct pulley sizes, which in turn reduced the NPSH requirements of the pump, and lastly the brass guard, pulley driven system, and explosion proof motor make this design intrinsically safe for hazardous areas.
