Lined Mag-drive Pumps for Treatment Plants

14.11.2003

Goulds Pumps, one of the fluid companies of ITT Industries, announces a complete line of heavy duty, magnetically driven process pumps for chemical feed applications in water and wastewater treatment plants.

The Tefzel® lined model 3298 will handle the most caustic, corrosive fluids safely, reliably and at a minimum operational cost. The 3298 is available in frame mounted, close-coupled, vertical in-line and self priming configurations to fit your application layout. It represents the most extensive lined pump product offering available. Liquid-end parts are lined with a thick layer of Tefzel® (ETFE) for universal corrosion resistance and an impenetrable barrier against leakage. Being sealless and magnetically driven, the 3298 has no expensive conventional mechanical seals to fail.

Operational safety is a prime consideration in the selection of process pumps today. The 3298 meets the strictest EPA regulations under the Clean Air Act. Zero emissions for a safe system and work environment.

The 3298 offers a lower initial cost than alternative high alloy pumps. The lower operating costs are a by-product of the 3298 design. Efficiencies are equal to conventionally sealed ANSI pumps and as high as 30% better than competitive metallic, sealless pumps

The 3298 Series offers capacities to 1,200 GPM (270 m³/h), heads to 470 feet (143 m),and temperatures to 250 F (121 °C). Applications for the 3298 series include: transfer pumps, batch processes, water treatment and distribution, booster pumps, disposal, water circulation, highly corrosive acids and chlorides as well as chemical injection.
