Brand: Durco
Description:

The Durco Mark 3 Recessed Impeller pump combines the best design features of the Mark 3 ANSI Standard pump with the vortex pumping action of a recessed impeller. This unique configuration is ideal for handling solids-laden, shear-sensitive or slurry-type fluids that would otherwise clog or damage standard centrifugal pumps.

Engineered to meet ASME (ANSI) B73.1 dimensional standards, the Mark 3 Recessed Impeller pump offers gentle fluid handling, reduced product degradation, and improved reliability in challenging industrial applications. It is the preferred solution in industries such as chemical processing, food and beverage, wastewater treatment and pulp and paper, where solids handling and low shear are critical.

The overhung design ensures easy maintenance and full compatibility with existing ANSI installations, while the robust construction supports corrosive and abrasive service conditions.

 

Mark 3 Recessed Impeller, Overhung Chemical Process Pump Applications

Acid Transfer, Sewage Collection and Treatment, Waste Processing, Polymers, Caustic and Chlor-alkali, Solvents, Bleach Chemical (pulp and paper), Shipping, Chemical and Liquor (pulp and paper), Slurry Processing, Coatings (pulp and paper), Volatile Organic Compounds, Construction, Water Supply and Distribution (water), Desalination, Water Treatment, Dewatering and Water Supply (mining), Electronics, Food Processing, HVAC, Hydraulic Press (metals), Leaching Acid, OEM, Pharmaceuticals, Automotive, Plating, Galvanizing and Other Coatings, Auxiliary (chemical), Renewable Fuel Production, Auxiliary Services (power), Agriculture

  • Industries:
    Pulp and Paper, Water Resources, Chemical Processing, Primary Metals, Mining, Power Generation, General Industries

Vortex Action minimizes abrasive wear while maintaining solids integrity. Only a fraction of the media contacts the impeller.

Precision Cast Impeller provided in CD4MCuN duplex stainless steel standard.

Cylindrical Volute Casing with Tangential Discharge minimizes turbulence, improving pump performance and decreasing abrasion.

Large Shaft and Bearing Components extend bearing life and reduce shaft deflection and vibration.
