Casing: Designed for minimum slurry turbulence and even wear. Includes integral wear ring, carrier, and adjustment screws for on-line adjustment and elimination of suction side recirculation.
Wear Ring:Adjustable wear ring assembly to permit closing of suction side impeller clearance during operation. This reduces slurry recirculation and lowers pressure at the suction area, thereby maintaining flow and reducing wear.
Impeller: Designed for high slurry efficiency and hydraulic performance. Machined surface at the eye for wear ring adjustment and high expelling vanes.
Backliner(dependent on pump size): Designed for close clearance at the back. Matching full impeller diameter and profile for close operating clearance.
Wear Parts: Designed hydraulically to wear evenly. Constructed of high chrome at 680/720 Brinell hardness.
Power Frame: Heavy duty cast iron pedestal with external bearing assembly adjustment mechanism. Drilled for overhead motor mounting assembly.
Bearing Assembly: Heavy duty shaft and indirect fitted taper roller bearings rated at 100,000 hrs B-10 life minimum. Bearing arrangement designed to prevent over greasing and ingress of slurry
Design Advantages:

millMAX™ Power Frame
Heavy duty cast pedestal
External bearing assembly adjustment
Wide bearing centers
Heavy duty shaft and bearings
Double clamp
Reverse Taper Roller Bearings
Increases effective load span to improve life
Main bearing failure is due to over-greasing
Pumping action of taper rollers discharges grease to the outside, preventing ingress of slurry or over greasing of bearing cartridge
