The highly versatile casted multistage pump
Finally, there’s a robust and reliable pumping system for virtually any high-pressure application. The Lowara e-MP multistage ring section pump combines Xylem’s century of experience, know-how and expertise to create a powerful and efficient solution for customers in industry, public utilities, agriculture and building services. Designed to be configured a multitude of ways, the Lowara e-MP has applications limited only by your imagination.
Benefits
Simple integration
Simply and cost-effectively integrate the e-MP into nearly any high-pressure application, thanks to its flexible mechanical configuration and its first stage suction impeller. This newly redesigned impeller provides the extremely high suction capabilities needed to meet the rigorous demands of hot water or condensate pumping applications.
Safe operation
Protect your people and reduce downtime with the e-MP. It incorporates a healthy assortment of built-in safeguards, such as a large self-cleaning seal chamber for contaminated liquids. Plus, you can further control and monitor safety by connecting the pump to the Xylem Hydrovar or another intelligent system.
Energy savings
Leave a greener footprint. The high-efficiency hydraulics of the e-MP are optimized by computational fluid dynamics calculations and new U-turn channels, which create an ideal flow of pumped liquid from stage to stage. This reduces both life cycle costs and energy demand, which gives the pump MEI values well above international standards.
Projectable service
Plan and minimize maintenance downtimes with the help of optional sensor interfaces on the e-MP. Pressure, temperature and vibration sensors can be installed on these mechanical interfaces; by connecting them to an intelligent plant monitoring and diagnostic system, a preventative maintenance schedule for the pump can be projected in advance.
Reduced wear
Decrease your downtime, maintenance needs and operation costs thanks to an assortment of smart design features and materials that extend the life of the e-MP and its components. For instance, the newly designed plain bearing in the suction housing is made of tungsten carbide and is elastically supported to resist extreme vibrations and shocks. A balancing drum reduces the axial thrust of the bearings and the load on the mechanical seal. The ultimate result is a more efficient, more effective operation.
Easy maintenance
Easily service the e-MP, thanks to its smart, simple, modular design. The bearing at the drive side, the mechanical seal and the balancing drum bush are all easily accessible without having to remove the pump from the piping system. What’s more, the pump’s modularity minimizes the number of parts needed to cover the complete performance range, which simplifies assembly and streamlines spare parts management.
