Pumps & Motor Assemblies Overview

Various models and style designed specifically to pump hot condensate over a wide range of flow and pressure applications. Pumps can be centrifugal or turbine; centrifugal pumps available as single stage or multi-stage. Pumps can be vertical or horizontal flange mounted with 1750 RPM or 3500 RPM motors in single or three-phase. Pumps with low required NPSH for applications with minimal available NPSH to minimize effects of cavitations. Pumps typically bronze fitted with removable wear ring and impeller and equipped with industry standard motors that can be purchased locally. Suction strainers are not recommended on centrifugal pumps for these applications.

A patented design underground pump is available for applications where hot condensate return piping is at or below floor level. A horizontal design with threaded suction is available for in-line applications of either hot or chilled water systems. Automatic flow control valves for balancing and throttling pump to run at design conditions are typically provided for high-pressure applications.

Pumps typically equipped with mechanical seals rated for temperatures up to 250°F; higher ratings standard on deaerator applications. Higher temperature seals and special faces available upon request.

Shipco® pumps can typically be directly bolted to installed condensate units, boiler feed units and surge tanks built by ITT Domestic, ITT Domestic-Ames and ITT Hoffman.* With adaptor flanges designed by Shipco®, our pumps can also be easily retrofitted to receivers made by the following manufacturers.

Benefits

  • Bronze-fitted wear rings and impellers provided for long life.
  • Low NPSH design with axial flow propeller typically eliminates need to elevate unit to increase available NPSH.
  • Patented underground design with low NPSH requirements provides cost effective solution where return piping is at floor level.
  • Motors can be removed without disturbing the plumbing.
  • Industry standard motors that can be obtained at local hardware stores to minimize cost and time if motor needs to be replaced.
  • Can be easily retrofitted to tanks of most manufacturers with Shipco® adapter flanges (see table above).
  • Shipco®'s experience at both pump and unit design helps ensure pump is properly sized to specific application.
  • High pressure, multi-stage pumps furnished with automatic flow control valves to throttle pump to designed condition point.
Model D

Model D Centrifugal Pump

A single-stage, centrifugal, bronze-fitted design for applications with temperatures typically 200°F or less. However, higher temperatures are possible depending on specific operating conditions. Pump types (such as 106-D, 110-D, etc.) selected depends on the design operating conditions—flow rate, discharge pressure and NPSH requirements; impellers trimmed to operating conditions. Can be flange-mounted (DF) either vertically or horizontally (DH). Vertical mounting saves floor space and avoids dirt and water. Pump can also be fitted with a threaded suction adapter flange for in-line applications (DFT).

Equipped with industry standard motors available in single or three-phase at either 1750 RPM or 3500 RPM. Pumps are furnished with bleed lines, sometimes called seal flushing lines, to help prevent the pump from vapor binding and to allow pump operation against a dead shut-off for a period of time without burning seals. Standard mechanical seals provide for temperatures up to 250°F. Higher temperature seals and special faces available upon request.

An optional isolation valve for installation in the suction piping is available to quickly remove the pump for repair and maintenance without draining the receiver and saving labor costs.

Model P

Model P Centrifugal Pump (Low NPSH Applications)

A two-stage, centrifugal, bronze-fitted design for applications requiring low NPSH. The pump is fitted with an axial flow propeller (sometimes called an inducer) and straightening vanes that provide the necessary NPSH for pumping high temperature water without cavitation occurring. Pump types (such as 110-P, 116-P, etc.) selected depends upon the design operating conditions—flow rate, discharge pressure and NPSH requirements; impellers trimmed to operating conditions. Can be flange-mounted (PF) either vertically or horizontally (PH). Vertical mounting saves floor space and avoids dirt and water. Pump can also be fitted with a threaded suction adapter flange for in-line applications (PFT).

Equipped with industry standard motors available in single or three-phase at 3500 RPM. Pumps are furnished with bleed lines, sometimes called seal flushing lines, to help prevent the pump from vapor binding and to allow pump operation against a dead shut-off for a period of time without burning seals. Standard mechanical seals provide for temperatures up to 250°F. Higher temperature seals and special faces available upon request.

Model H

Model H Centrifugal Pump (In-line Pump Applications)

A single-stage, centrifugal, bronze-fitted, horizontal design. Pump is fitted with a threaded suction enabling pump to be used for in-line applications such as chilled water systems, cooling towers, circulators, washer and booster, etc. Pump types (such as 110-H, 116-H or 127-H) selected depends on the design operating conditions—flow rate, discharge pressure and NPSH requirements; impellers trimmed to operating conditions. Can be flange-mounted either vertically or horizontally. Vertical mounting saves floor space and avoids dirt and water.

Equipped with industry standard motors available in single or three-phase at either 1750 RPM or 3500 RPM. Pumps are furnished with bleed lines, sometimes called seal flushing lines, to help prevent the pump from vapor binding and to allow pump operation against a dead shut-off for a period of time without burning seals. Standard mechanical seals provide for temperatures up to 250°F. Higher temperature seals and special faces available upon request.

Model U

Model U Centrifugal Pump (Underground or Basin Applications)

A centrifugal, bronze-fitted, vertical design. Pump is fitted with propeller shaft for applications where the return piping is at or below floor level. A patented design (U.S. Patent #4,932,846) is typically more durable and simpler than most other design which often have chronic lower bearing failure. Column depths can range from 6 inches up to 27 feet. Pump types (such as 113-U, 114-U, etc.) selected depends on the design operating conditions—flow rate, discharge pressure and NPSH requirements; impellers trimmed to operating conditions.

Equipped with industry standard motors available in single or three-phase at 3500 RPM only. Pumps are typically furnished with bleed lines, sometimes called seal flushing lines, to help prevent the pump from vapor binding and to allow pump operation against a dead shut-off for a period of time without burning seals. Standard mechanical seals provide for temperatures up to 250°F. Higher temperature seals and special faces available upon request.

Model AW / Model AWF / Model AWF-B

Model AW / Model AWF / Model AWF-B Multistage, Centrifugal Pumps

A multi-stage, centrifugal, bronze-fitted, available in either horizontal or vertical design. Pump typically used for applications with flows up to 500 GPM and pressures up to 340 psig. Pump types (such as 129 AW, 221 AWF, etc.) selected depend on the design operating conditions—flow rate, discharge pressure and NPSH requirements; impellers trimmed to operating conditions. Pumps available either as close-coupled (AW) or flex-coupled (AWF) or vertical (AWF-B) and fitted with both suction and discharge ASA flanges.

Typically equipped with industry standard motors available in single or three-phase at 3500 RPM only. Pumps are typically furnished with bleed lines, sometimes called seal flushing lines, to help prevent the pump from vapor binding and to allow pump operation against a dead shut-off for a period of time without burning seals. Standard silicon carbide/viton mechanical seals provide for temperatures up to 300°F. Higher temperature seals and special faces available upon request. All pumps come equipped with an automatic flow control valve for balancing or throttling pump to the designed condition point.

On deaerator applications, where pumps run continuously, an additional bypass orifice must be installed when motor exceeds 7-1/2 HP.
