Sulzer recently launched the new SIL pump range. The pump range was developed to meet the process requirements in various general and industrial applications. It is designed for clean liquid processes, using Sulzer‘s long experience and in-depth pumping technology knowledge.

The SIL pump range is ideal for pumping mainly clean and slightly contaminated liquids, viscous liquids up to 250 cSt, and fibrous slurries up to a consistency of 1%. The hydraulic design ensures efficient pumping with a low NPSHr (net positive suction head required) across the whole pump range.

The inline design together with the monoblock construction makes the SIL pump compact, rigid and reliable. The pump is available either with an integrated motor or with a standard IEC motor. SIL pumps are easy and fast to install both in vertical and in horizontal positions, and they require only a small installation space.

The SIL inline pump range fulfills the efficiency regulations across all industries as well as the design requirements of the ISO 5199 international standard. For the customer this means substantial savings in the total life-cycle costs and a reduced environmental footprint.

The SIL pump exceeds the European Union‘s requirements for energy-related products (ErP). These regulations specify the minimum efficiency values for water pumps, with the target of reducing the energy consumption. The entire pump range exceeds the MEI 0.4 (Minimum Efficiency Index).
