4. General Information
4.1. DESCRIPTION
PROLAC HCP is a range of close-coupled centrifugal pumps with hygienic design, suitable for use in the dairy,
beverage and food industry in general.
The single-stage horizontal pump has a circular pump casing with axial suction and a tangential discharge. The
main pump components are pump casing, impeller, cover, lantern and a shaft which is rigidly coupled to the motor
shaft.
The standard IEC 60034 motor of type IM B35 is protected by a stainless steel shroud and provided with height
adjustable stainless steel legs.
4.2. APPLICATION
As a general rule, PROLAC HCP pumps in their standard version are used in the food industry mainly to transfer
liquids.
For each type of the pump, the hydraulic performance is given by the choice of impeller diameters and speeds.
The characteristic curves also show the power and NPSH requirements. The intended use of the pump is defined
by its characteristic curve and operating limits provided in chapter
The range of application for each type of pump is limited. The pump was selected for a given set of
pumping conditions when the order was placed. Misuse of the pump or its use beyond the operating
limits may be dangerous or cause permanent damage to the equipment. INOXPA shall not be liable
for any damage resulting from the incompleteness of the information provided by the purchaser
(nature of the fluid, rpm, etc.).
