ITT Water & Wastewater Offer The FLYGT A-C Series Featuring Unique 'Shearpeller' Pump
September 9, 2009
ITT Water & Wastewater is proud to offer the FLYGT A-C Series featuring our unique "Shearpeller" pump designed to handle large solids-in-suspension, slurries, heavy viscous material and gas entrained liquids to 25% air vapor. The "Shearpeller" or model "NSX" was originally designed by A-C pump as a solution to handling large solids while not becoming air-bound. The cut-away inlet edge of the impeller vanes permit the air to enter unobstructed and the regeneration within the impeller does not allow the air to collect, thus preventing the air binding so frequently experienced in conventional centrifugal pumps.
Endless hours of shutdowns and impeller clean out are eliminated while pumping raw un-comminuted sludge from a wet well of primary settling tank to digesters. The heterogeneous mass of the sludge is easily handled using a 4x4x11 inch pump with ITT's innovative "NSX" impeller design. The FLYGT A-C Series "Shearpeller" pump can be operated in either the vertical or horizontal configurations and will often fit into existing systems without costly modifications.
The "NSW, NSY & NSX" family of products are proudly manufactured in Pewaukee, Wisconsin and are fully ARRA compliant.
