Newly available turbine pump suits limited suction head applications

Michael Smith Engineers has added the TPM magnetic coupled peripheral pump, engineered by Dickow Pumpen, to the range of pumps for liquids and chemicals it supplies to UK industry.

The pump is designed to meet the demanding requirements of various industries, including oil & gas, chemical, petrochemical, aviation, and renewable energy.

The TPM peripheral pump, also known as a turbine pump, shares operational similarities with centrifugal and side- channel pumps, offering the best of both worlds. With its low net positive suction head (NPSH) requirements, the TPM pump is suited for applications with limited suction head.

The TPM range can deliver flow rates of up to 17 m3/hr and a maximum differential head of 400m. With a design pressure of 40 bar and a maximum operating temperature of 300°C, the range is built to ensure reliable performance even under the most challenging conditions.

One of the standout features of this peripheral pump is its ability to handle liquids with entrained gas, enabling continuous operation even during gas release or temporary air ingress. Additionally, its hermetically sealed design makes it an excellent choice for handling toxic, explosive, or environmentally hazardous fluids, ensuring safety and compliance with stringent environmental standards.

Michael Smith Engineers, Dickow’s authorised distributor for the UK and Ireland, says the new offering underscores its commitment to providing cutting-edge solutions that meet the evolving needs of its customers across diverse industries.
