Designed for use in refineries, lube oil plants and general industry for processing, filling and transfer applications, the XL pump line - which is part of the Iron Line of sliding vane pumps - features replaceable casings, liners and end discs that allow easy rebuilding of the pumping chamber to like-new condition without removing the pump from the piping.
Blackmer fully Integrated Unit Assemblies are the pre-engineered and pre-designed drop-in pumping solution. These unit assemblies, include motor, gearbox, baseplate, coupling safety covers, and a XL Sliding Vane Pump (2, 3 & 4-inch size). No alignment required with these pre-configured fully Integrated Unit Assemblies as they are ready for immediate drop-in installation.
Features and Benefits
- Ductile-iron construction with internal relief valve
- Blackmer mechanical seal and ball bearing construction provide maximum reliability
- Symmetrical bearing support assures even loading and wear for long life
- Adjustable relief valve protects pump against excessive pressures
- External ball bearings are isolated from pumpage by mechanical seals to maximize bearing life and minimize contamination risk
- Advantages of sliding vane technology:
- Unique sliding-vane pump design self-adjusts for wear to maintain flow rates
- Excellent self-priming and dry-run capabilities
- Sliding vane design provides sustained performance and trouble-free operation
- Easy maintenance: vanes can be easily replaced without removing the pump from the piping system
- High suction lift and line-stripping capabilities
- Low maintenance and low life-cycle costs
