CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS- END SUCTION PUMPS

An End Suction Pump is a type of centrifugal pump that has a casing with the suction coming in one end and the discharge coming out the top. They are almost always single stage pumps, that is, they have only one impeller.- impeller is cantelevered on one one of the shaft

– suction and discharge piping at 90 degrees to each other

ADVANTAGES

– relatively inexpensive

DISADVANTAGES

– constant axial force (thrust load) pushing

impeller toward pump suction

** Many of Forte Fluid Systems Centrifugal Pumps are a combination of multiple Centrifugal Pump types. For example and End Suction Pump (Between Bearing) that has a Closed Impeller. **
