Description
The HC-1115 Horizontal Non-Metallic Coupled Pump is a compact, single-stage, end-suction centrifugal pump designed for corrosive liquid handling where conventional metallic pumps are not suitable. Its horizontal coupled construction combines a robust drive-end arrangement with a non-metallic hydraulic section, providing reliable performance in applications involving acids, alkalis, and other chemically aggressive process fluids.
Engineered for continuous-duty service, the HC-1115 is well suited for chemical processing, effluent treatment, acid regeneration, pickling lines, gas scrubbing, and other corrosive transfer duties. The pump is typically configured with polypropylene wetted parts, injection-moulded impellers, and shaft sleeves selected for compatibility with the handled liquid, while high-quality ball bearings support improved service life and dependable operation.
This model is appropriate for moderate-flow, moderate-head applications in industries such as dyes and intermediates, paints, pharmaceuticals, water treatment, and general chemical processing, including hydrochloric acid transfer, alkali handling, filter press feed, and scrubbing of corrosive gases.
