Key components

Casing

The casing is of one piece close-grained cast iron construction. The casing is heavily ribbed to prevent distortion under the most severe operating conditions and incorporates the ROOTS™ WHISPAIR™ feature for reduced pulsation, horsepower and noise levels.

Impellers

The closed-end impellers are made from ductile iron with high tensile strength, and operate without liquid sealing or lubrication.

Shafts

The shafts are 3” diameter alloy steel forgings flange connected to the impeller body.

Timing Gears

The impellers are timed by a pair of alloy steel spur gears that operate in an oil bath.

Bearings

The impeller/shaft assemblies are supported at each end by antifriction bearings.

Lubrication

A patented jet spray oil slinger system provides lubrication to gears and bearings.
