Centrifugal Pumps

Industrial centrifugal pumps use a rotating impeller to move water (or other fluids) using centrifugal force. These centrifugal water pumps are ideal for clean or lightly contaminated water and are commonly used for chilled water circulation, heating circulation, multistage duties, and clean water applications — including circulation pumps for building services and process systems.

Centrifugal water pumps are used for many applications that Dura Pump can support. Below are some of the most common centrifugal water pump duties we support, including circulation pumps for heating and cooling, as part of our industrial pump solutions and wider pump solutions offering, from heating and cooling circulation through to clean water boosting and process transfer.

Heating Circulation Pumps

In heating environments, centrifugal water pumps (often specified as circulation pumps) are typically selected based on duty point, temperature, system head losses, and whether single or twin-head resilience is required. Industrial centrifugal pumps in heating systems are used for circulating hot water around the building to maintain the distribution of the hot (heating) water, supporting industrial circulation pump duties where resilience is required. They can vary from a main end suction shunt pump to a secondary inline canned/glandless pump. The inline pumps often found in heating systems are often twin twin-head pumps.

Cooling Circulation Pumps

Centrifugal water pumps in cooling or chiller systems are used as circulation pumps for circulating chilled water around the building as an industrial circulation pump solution to cool the points that need it, for example operating theaters, server rooms and cool rooms/stores.  They can vary from main long-coupled end-suction primary pumps to small glanded inline pumps

Clean Water

Centrifugal water pumps in a clean water system are typically used for boosting and moving the water… These are proven pump solutions for clean water boosting and moving the water (often as WRAS-approved centrifugal water pumps) from a break tank to the discharge point, for example, a tap or outlet . They are WRAS approved and typically have stainless steel construction. They are also used on HWS (hot water secondary systems), which mainly consist of bronze or stainless steel, circulating hot water around a loop via the cylinder to maintain heat.

Industrial Centrifugal Pump

Centrifugal pumps in process plants are used for a wide range of liquids like water, chemicals and oils through various production stages. For industrial centrifugal water pumps, material selection and seal configuration are key to reliability. These are core industrial pump solutions where duty conditions vary. For industrial centrifugal water pumps, material selection and seal configuration are key to reliability — especially where temperature, chemical compatibility, or solids content varies. These can be fully stainless hygienic pumps or mag-driven chemical pumps, to waste water transfer pumps with open impellers. The correct material and specification are critical in these applications

Clear, Consistent Communication

The communication from Dura Pump to the customer is very good. We knew what was happening with the repair every step of the way

Purchasing Manager

Outstanding Turnaround

We just wanted to feedback our grateful thanks to Chris and Phil for all their hard work yesterday in getting us up and running again. To turn us around from failure to full recovery in 4/5 hrs was nothing short of exceptional. Please pass on our gratitude to them both.
