HMD Kontro GSPV – General Service Petroleum Vertical API 685 Sealless Magnetic Drive Pump

Vertical API 685 Pump – GSPV

A compact, vertical sealless magnetic drive pump for safe processing and handling of hazardous and valuable hydrocarbons and chemicals

The GSPV range of vertical pumps caters to a variety of applications such as booster packages, condensate transfer, hydrocarbon transfer and sampling packages.  Its compact design particularly lends itself to offshore applications where space is at a premium.

The use of fixed diffuser parts outboard of the impeller instead of a volute casing optimized the best efficiency point and allows variation of the head rise to shut-off for a range of duty points.  Each hydraulic is offered with at least two diffuser options.  The diffuser may be changed in situ, without removing the casing from the process, should pump duty change significantly.

  • Flows up to 1,250 GPM (285 m³/hr)
  • Heads to 430 ft (130m)
  • Temperature Range -40 to 400°F (-40 to 205°C)

A major advantage of having a diffuser is a significant reduction in radial loads and the consequential low vibration levels experienced and stabilization of the characteristic head curve.

The rigidly coupled vertically mounted design has nine hydraulics split between two frame (magnetic coupling) sizes to suit the power requirements, with the option of  ZeroLoss shells in all configurations.

POWER MONITOR

Installed in the Motor Control Center (MCC), a power monitor measures the power required to operate the pump.  By setting High and Low trip points, the power monitor is the perfect solution for protecting your pump from:

  • Dry running
  • Low flow operation
  • High flow operation
  • Severe cavitation
  • Magnet de-coupling

New ZeroLoss Containment Shell

Reduces Power Losses in the Pump to Zero
Excellent energy savings can now be made thanks to the introduction of the ZeroLoss containment shell for larger pumps. The elimination of eddy current losses can result in up to a 20% saving in power consumption, further enhancing the benefits and green credentials of magnetic drive technology from Sundyne HMD Kontro.

The advantage increases in proportion with the magnetic coupling size and is particularly appropriate for larger pumps, making the magnetic drive option even more attractive because through life costs are reduced further. Lower powerconsumption not only results in reduced running costs but alsopotentially provides lower initial capital costs, as smaller motors can be specified.

In addition, installation costs can be reduced as lower-rated cabling may be required, and there are space-savings from the ability to use a smaller base plate for the pump and motor combination.

New Zero Loss

SECONDARY CONTROL & CONTAINMENT

HMD Kontro Sealless magnetic drive pumps are available with secondary control devices to restrict any leaks. Mechanical devices are fitted to the drive shaft assembly and are activated in the unlikely event of containment shell failure. Also, the pump coupling housing is fitted with gaskets to eliminate any leaks across the joining faces.

HMD Kontro Model

Solids Handling

All HMD Kontro pumps, as standard, can handle up to 5% hardsolids and 150 microns diameter. The solid size can increase by fitting a self-cleaning in line filter, to 8% solids and 250 microns.

For larger solids HMD Kontro can provide pumps with a clean flush system or filter built into the flush pipework.
