Benefits

Lower Capital Costs

  • The vertical pump design provide space saving

Low Operating Costs
  • Weir Floway vertical pump design produces high pressures with premium efficiencies with low operating cost.

High Reliability
  • Low NPSH first stage construction is available to insure successful operation without cavitation problems.
  • Flexible Hydraulic Selection. Pressure and flow variations are achieved by changing the number of stages or impeller types.
  • The pump bowl assembly is characterised as low energy per stage resulting in a broad flow range with excellent hydraulic stability.

Lower Through life costs
  • Long Impeller Life - Reduced erosion with multi stage units verses a single stage unit which has a high impeller tip speed.
  • Stable Operating Characteristic - Steep head curve provides excellent pressure sensor sensitivity.
  • Materials to Suit the application - Cast iron/bronze fitted (standard) and available in any machinable & weldable alloys.
