The GP pump is a horizontal, between bearings, multi-stage, radially split, ring section type centrifugal process pump. Available in non-API and API 610 latest edition (BB4) builds, it is engineered to be the most reliable pump for the most demanding high-pressure and high-temperature applications across industries.
Overview
Ruhrpumpen's GP pump has been engineered to be the most reliable and efficient pumping solution for the most demanding high-pressure and high-temperature applications across industries.
The GP pump features a robust, yet compact, design, together with high efficiency hydraulics. It's design provides superior performance and expectional reliability combined with ease of maintenance and minimal operating costs.
The GP line is available in non-API builds for the requirements of power plants and general industry specifications, and as API 610 11th edition (BB4 type) compliant for oil and gas applications. It is designed to meet group II, category 2 G and 3 (for use in zone 1 and 2) of the ATEX 94/9/C directive.
