Close-Coupled and Frame-Mounted Centrifugal Pumps
There are a multitude of pump variations in use around the world, and applications range from pools and spas, to water treatment and oil refinery. The most commonly used pumps in these applications are centrifugal style pumps which utilize either a close-coupled (JP, JM, TCZ) configuration, or a frame-mounted (T-frame, U-frame, gasoline/diesel) configuration.
Centrifugal Pump- A pump consisting of an impeller fixed on a rotating shaft and enclosed in a casing, and having an inlet and discharge connection. The rotating impeller creates pressure in the liquid by the velocity derived from centrifugal force.
There are three basic configurations of centrifugal pumps:
End-Suction Centrifugal Pumps- The most common style of centrifugal pump. The center of the suction line is centered on the impeller eye. End suction centrifugal pumps are further classified as either frame-mounted or close-coupled.
Split-case Centrifugal Pumps- A centrifugal pump design so that the volute case is split horizontally. The case divides on a plane that cuts through the eye of the impeller
Vertical Turbine Pumps- A classification of centrifugal pumps designed to be mounted with the shaft in a vertical position; the motor is commonly mounted above the pump. Vertical turbine pumps are either mixed or axial flow devices.
