Design
The OMK Pump is a horizontal axis, radially split, ring section design multistage centrifugal pump of non-self priming type.
Impellers are between bearings, single entry, closed type and dynamically balanced. Impeller diameter will be corrected for optimal adherence to the required duty point.
The axial thrust is relieved by relieving boreholes in each impeller. The remaining thrust can be borne by large-sized bearings.
Pumps with exchangeable wear rings are available upon request.
The pump series consists of 5 sizes. OMK 32, 40, 50, 65 and 80. Stages are from 2 up to max. 14 stages.
Pump and motor are fitted on a common base plate and connected to each other via flexible coupling.
Flanges are acc. to DIN 2535. Flanges acc. to BS or ANSI are upon request.
Normally, discharge part is at motor side on top, suction part is at dead end side on the right and rotation of direction is clockwise when viewed from driver.
Suction and discharge nozzles may be a choice of three 90° positions. By special request, it is possible to put the suction nozzle at the motor side. In this arrangement pump and motor rotation must be counter clockwise.
Please see the possible arrangements at “Different Mounting Arrangements” section.
