Description
The self-priming multistage centrifugal pumps of the TBA series derive from the TBH series with an additional centrifugal stage at the suction side.
The self-priming multistage centrifugal pumps of the TBA series have extremely low NPSH requirements and are particularly suitable for handling boiling liquids and difficult applications. This design is especially suited to handle liquids with entrained gases and liquified gases such as LPG.
The self-priming multistage centrifugal pumps of the TBA series have performances, design and duty characteristics as the TBH series. Pump components are interchangeable thus reducing the need to stock spare parts for both series.
Capacities to 35 m3/h. Heads to 40 bar.

APPLICATIONS
Pumps series TBH and TBA are suitable to handle clean liquids, corrosives, hot or cold in the chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, food industries, etc.
- Removal of condensates and distilled liquids.
- Solvents and liquified gases applications.
- Boiler feed applications.
- Removal or liquid from processes under vacuum.
- Filling stations and transfer of LPG and liquified gases.
- Fire fighting systems and autoclaves.
- Potable and sanitary systems in the naval industry.
- Spray washing installations.
CONSTRUCTION
The self-priming pumps series TBH and TBA utilize the lateral channel principle. The open “star” type impeller is hydraulically balanced and enclosed between the suction and discharge port plates to form the pumping stage. Stages are mounted in series to give proportional higher discharge pressures with constant capacities. The magnetic drive pumps series TBK and TBAK derive from the series TBH and TBA. They are suitable to handle hazardous, toxics, odorous or polluting liquids and other applications where zero liquid leakage is desired.
