PACO LF/LC/LCV TYPE LF/LC/LCV END SUCTION PUMPS Close Coupled and Frame Mounted END SUCTION PUMPS Type LF (Frame Mounted) Type LC (Close Coupled) Type LCV (Vertically Mounted Close Coupled) Grundfos CBS Inc. is fully committed to advancing pump technology and providing its customers with the most efficient pumps in the market. The PACO line of end suction, single stage pumps serves as the industry standard in performance, quality, and durability. With an expanded selection of 32 sizes available, the PACO line of pumps are the smart choice for a number of reasons: > Low life-cycle costs > High efficiency for reduced operation costs > Compensated double-volute design for reduced radial loads, minimized shaft deflection, and prolonged seal life and bearing life > Mechanical design for reduced maintenance and minimal downtime > Back pull out design for ease of maintenance and servicing > Range of sizes to meet precise application requirements > Quiet operation Advanced features incorporated as standard on PACO end suction pumps ensure optimum performance and reliability. These features, as well as optional features that meet specialized needs, are available on the broadest line of high-efficiency pumps offered to the industry. An innovative pump and impeller design produces a higher operating efficiency – up to 91 percent – and provides a wider band of best operating efficiency, even during conditions of off-design operation. Quite simply, the PACO line of pumps is the smart choice for lower initial cost, longer pump life, reduced operating and maintenance costs, maximum reliability, and quieter operation. 2 | Overview LF/LC/LCV Double Volute Design with Superior Advantages The PACO LF and LC pumps utilize a double volute design that offers a distinct advantage over single volute designs. The double volute design incorporates two cutwaters located at 180°, which divide the flow into two geometrically similar regions of the volute. The resultant hydraulic forces within the pumps are equal and opposed. As a result, the net radial force is maintained at a very low level throughout the operating range of the pump, and shaft deflection is kept to a minimum. A typical single volute pump is normally designed to operate at or near the best efficiency point (BEP). In actual application, many pumps stray away from BEP due to load variances and/or changes in the system head curve. Dynamically Balanced Impeller Thrust Balancing Cut-Water As single volute pumps begin to operate away from BEP, the resultant radial load increases dramatically, causing increased shaft loads, deflection, and vibration. Excessive radial loads can cause premature failure of the mechanical seal, bearings, and shaft. A double volute design ensures that hydraulic radial loads are equal and opposed and thereby nullified. Pump operation remains stable throughout the entire performance curve, with minimal shaft deflection, prolonging seal, bearing, and shaft life. *According to studies by the U.S. Department of Energy PACO LF/LC/LCV | 3 FEATURES AND BENEFITS PACO LF FRAME MOUNTED END SUCTION PUMP Footed Bearing Frame > Enhances ease of maintenance and provides proper support of rotating equipment during servicing Footless Volute > Establishes single point support for reducing alignment restrictions, which extend seal and bearing life > Permits discharge orientation flexibility > Minimizes the effects (misalignment, flange strain) of thermal expansion on volute Permanently Sealed for Life Bearings > Reduce environmental contaminants and pump maintenance Machined Mounting Surfaces and Fabricated Base Plate > Aid in alignment Choice of Motor Enclosures > Increases flexibility of design Back Pull-Out Design > Enables maintenance without disturbing piping Double Volute Design > Reduces radial loads, internal recirculation, and turbulence, which increases efficiency, lowers life cycle costs, and prolongs seal and bearing life Large Seal Chamber > Allows for various seal configurations and customization Integrally Cast Diffuser Vane > Reduces turbulence and pre-rotation by providing laminar flow into oversized impeller eye, resulting in decreased need for extended horizontal suction pipe runs, elbows, or suction guides Francis Vane Impeller Design > Increases efficiency and reduces NPSHr Bronze Case Wear Rings > Extend pump life and increase pump efficiency (included as standard) > Provide simple and inexpensive renewal of “like new” operating tolerances, even after years of operation Impellers > Trimmed to exact customer specifications for customization > Static and dynamically balanced to ISO 1940-G3 for reduced noise and vibration > Hydraulically balanced to decrease thrust loads and prolong seal and bearing life PACO LC/LCV CLOSE COUPLED END SUCTION PUMPS Close Coupled Design > Provides compact construction and space savings Registered Fit > Eliminates machine tolerance stacking > Provides positive placement of components for permanent rigid pump to motor alignment Permanent Rigid Alignment > Eliminates need for alignment > Prolongs seal and bearing life Industry-Standard JM Frame Motor > Simplifies motor replacement Type LCV Pump > Offers vertical mounting of close coupled design for increased space savings No Grouting Requirements > Makes installation easy Francis Vane Impeller Design > Increases efficiency and reduces NPSHr Impellers > Trimmed to exact customer specifications for customization > Static and dynamically balanced to ISO 1940-G3 for reduced noise and vibration > Hydraulically balanced to decrease thrust loads and prolong seal and bearing life 4 | Features and Benefits THE INDUSTRY STANDARD FOR PREMIUM PUMPS Performance you can count on.
