Description of product
2.1
General description of the pump
Pumps of the series SFC are one-stage rotary
pumps. The impellers are fixed on the driving
shaft extension. The pump shaft and motor shaft
are interconnected by means of a shaft clamp.
The cutting unit is cutting the chips and the semi-
open impeller with its large clearances allows to
pump the particles along with the coolant fluid
from the machine back to the filter. The SFC
pumps are capable of handling chip to coolant ra-
tios of up to 1.5% by weight.
Pump and motor form a compact and space-sav-
ing unit.
Vertically mounted pumps are equipped with a
mounting flange. The pump end immerses into
the tank and the motor extends vertically above
the tank.
2.2
Intended use
The cutter pumps of the series SFC are suited for
cutting aluminum chips or similar materials and
for pumping these materials along with the cool-
ant fluid.
– Pay attention of the limit of application in
table 1!
The cutter pumps are intended for installation in
machines and cannot be operated alone.
