KSB Omega Split Casing Water Pump

Single-stage axially split volute casing pump for horizontal or vertical installation, with double-entry radial impeller, mating flanges to DIN, EN or ASME.

Main Applications

• Waterworks
• Desalination plants
• Pressure boosting
• Water transport
• Service water and cooling water for power stations and industry
• Irrigation pumping stations
• Drainage pumping stations
• Fire-fighting systems
• Shipbuilding
• District heating systems and district cooling systems

Benefits

• Low maintenance costs:
  • Fast and easy to install thanks to self-centring components (upper casing part, rotor, casing cover)
  • Materials resistant to corrosion and abrasion
  • Smooth operation with low vibration levels
  • Replacement and spare parts fit several pump sizes
• Long service life:
  • Sealed and dry shaft
  • Short bearing distances and a short shaft
  • Optional impeller wear rings
  • Replaceable shaft protecting sleeve
• High operating reliability:
  • Rigid shaft without threads between the bearings
  • Generously sized bearings (Lh10 = 100,000 hours)
  • Reliable sealing thanks to solid casing split flange
  • Double-entry impeller for axial thrust balancing
  • Double volute design
• High flexibility:
  • Drive can be positioned to the left or right of the pump
  • Shaft sealed by gland packing or mechanical seals
  • Various horizontal and vertical installation options
  • Flanges to DIN or ASME
• Excellent efficiencies and NPSH values:
  • Computer-optimised impellers
  • Large impeller inlet diameters for optimum suction behaviour
  • Cost-effective replacing of casing and impeller wear rings
  • Vortex-free intake elbow with low energy losses
  • Impeller trimmed to match the specified duty point
  • Several hydraulic systems per pump size
