Floway®
VTSP Vertical Turbine Solids Pump
Floway® VTSP (Vertical Turbine Solids Pump) is a vertical close coupled, single and multistage turbine pump, with a cast or fabricated discharge head, top mounted motor and closed suction or wet pit design solids handling pump. This solids pump includes hardened materials and a patented bearing design resulting in an increased wear-life up to four times that of a standard vertical turbine solid pump.
In addition, the Floway® VTSP features a semi-open adjustable impeller design to accommodate solids and maintain performance without the need for disassembly. Handling solids up to 10% by weight, the Floway® VTSP is designed to reduce wear, decrease maintenance down time, and lower total ownership cost.
