KB Series
Manufacturer: BJM Pumps
Used for settling basins, retention ponds, wash down sumps, sand & gravel dewatering, barge & tank cleanout, and more.
• Abrasive resistant chrome iron components:
• Agitator - Fluidizes settled solids into suspension.
• Wear plate - Replaceable hardened surface on the suction side where erosion would cause a loss of pump performance.
• Semi open impeller - handles some solids.
• Every KB Series pump model is protected by:
• Class H motor insulation and built in amperage (FLA) and temperature overload protection.
• Double mechanical seals - SiC/SiC lower and carbon ceramic upper in a separate oil filled seal chamber.
• Heavy duty lip seal - Additional protection for the mechanical seals.
• Stainless steel shaft and shaft sleeve - Saves on shaft wear due to abrasives and corrosion.
• The KB Series are top discharge pumps:
• KB Series pumps are utility pumps - Frequently dragged from one site to another. The KB doesn't have a side discharge connection that can break off or be damaged as it is pulled and pushed into place.
• Top discharge pumps are cooled by pumped liquid - The KB Series pumps can pump a sump or pit down to within‚¬Å“inches " of the bottom. A side discharge pump without a cooling jacket must stay submerged to avoid overheating, leaving as much as 3 feet of unpumped slurry.
• Top discharge pumps are slim - Even the largest model with a 13.5 inch diameter will fit down a manhole with a hose attached. High chrome agitator helps keep solids suspended in liquid and helps prevent pump from clogging.
• Specifications dependent on model and may change without notice.
