A vertical mixed flow pump belongs to the vane pump category, offering a unique blend of characteristics found in both centrifugal and axial flow pumps. It operates by harnessing the joint forces of centrifugal power and thrust generated through the impeller’s rotation. Notably, the liquid exits the impeller at an inclined angle relative to the pump’s axis.
Characteristics
● Mixed flow impeller
● Single or multistage impeller
● Packed Stuffing box for axial sealing
● Clockwise rotation viewed from coupling end or counter clockwise as requirement
● Outlet diameter under 1000mm with non-pull out rotor, above 1000mm with pull out rotor to ease dismantling and maintenance
● Closed ,semi open or open impeller as the condition of service
● Pump’s length adjustment under foundation as requirement
● Starting without vacuumizing for long service life
● Space saving with vertical construction
