Designed for the handling of clean, solid laden, flammable and abrasive liquids, its unique internal armoured volute protects the main pump casing from wear and fluid contact, by absorbing any impact from the pressurised liquid.
The XR series are rapid self-priming pumps, capable of priming from 4M in under 2 minutes due to its uniquely designed double-curved impeller optimised for high efficiency (up to 74%) without compromise to solid passage and priming time. This model can handle solids up to 73mm x 50mm in size.
Each pump within the XR series is also constructed with an enduring design philosophy. A wide range of material options are available ranging from Cast Iron to Bronze, Stainless Steel and hardened material alternatives. This allows for maximum efficiency in any application as well as providing reliability and longevity. Our unique construction means many ranges share the same internal parts reducing stock holding of associated spare parts across models.
To finalize construction and design, a hard-faced mechanical seal ensures resistance to solids - even those not foreseen, with an integrated heavy-duty bearing housing on long coupled designs ensuring durability for arduous and rugged operation over extended periods.
The North Ridge XR series has many benefits:
·Self-priming operation from 4m vertical in under 2 minutes, and up to 8m vertically from dry
·ATEX Certified in EEx b, c or d, for use with flammable fuels and liquids in hazardous atmosphere
·Robust design allows for operation in heavy industrial environments with superb reliability
