The Ecoflu cooling system ensures optimum cooling of motors across a wide range of operating conditions including dry pit, inverter duty and low level wet wells where conditions conductive to overheating are likely to occur. A controlled temperature environment will extend the ‘Working Life Cycle” of supporting components such as bearings, oil seals, o-rings, mechanical seals and ultimately that of the pump itself.
The Ecoflu system is driven by an impeller located in the mechanical seal unit which circulates a clean water/glycol coolant through passages in the external motor cooling jacket surrounding the motor. The coolant absorbs the motor generated heat and dissipates it either to the liquid being pumped or to atmosphere for dry-pit applications. Being a closed system and not utilizing the liquid being pumped, the Ecoflu cooling system remains free of any blockage or silting – a common problem in conventional jacketed pumps.
All PXPUMPS from 4.43 to 34.9 horsepower are offered as standard with the Ecoflu cooling system. On larger pumps the system is offered as an option. |
