Goulds Pumps expands ISO standard pump range

ITT’s Goulds Pumps has added the IC Open (ICO) Impeller i-FRAME pump to its portfolio of ISO standard pumps.

Designed to handle chemical slurries and waste liquids and challenging food and beverage applications, the ICO augments the standard IC pump design with an open impeller for handling solids. This new feature means that the ICO is also able to deal with air- and gas-handling applications.

Available in 34 sizes and three different materials, ICO is built to ISO 2858 dimensions and meets ISO 5199 standards. In addition to the open impeller, the pump features flanges drilled to DIN/ISO or ANSI, plus a modular design of four bearing frames, which maximises interchangeability across its 34 sizes.

The pump can deal with flows up to 400 m3/hr and heads up to 150 m at temperatures ranging from -40ºC to +280ºC and has a cyclone seal chamber with improved heat removal plus a patented spiral groove design that removes solids from the sealing area.

Its heavy-duty i-FRAME Power Frame helps prevent pump bearing failures and there is also an i-ALERT 2 sensor for continuous machine health monitoring.
