The SJD (API) models are ISO 13709/API 610 type VS1 and VS6 pumps, whose design has evolved after many years of experience. They use Sulzer low NPSHr (net positive suction head) first stage, followed by high head stages with the same hydraulics (series), to minimize the number of stages required.
SJD vertically mounted API process pumps
FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES
– Can be manufactured as VS 1 construction
– Reduced number of stages results in shorter, more reliable pumps
– Double suction on larger sizes can reduce the pump length
– Higher efficiency with lower energy consumption
– Modular construction to suit project requirements in terms of nozzle location
– High pressure per stage means process conditions can be achieved at slower speeds
