The Extrair pump is a vertical centrifugal pump that is most commonly used for conveying solid carrying medium out of vacuumed basins. This single stage centrifugal pump is self-priming and self-adjusting (according to the incoming amount water), as well being designed for continuous operation. Because the Extrair pump is self-adjusting according to the incoming amount of water, the pump must be plugged to a fresh water supply, as this provides extra lubrication to the lower bearing and prevents the ingress of solids into the bearing. In the event of there not being enough fluids in the pump, the water supply also provides a cooling function. Since the pump normally operates under a vacuum, a non-return valve must be mounted on the pressure side/outlet in order to prevent the backflow of the medium and the ingress of atmospheric air.
This pump is ideally suited for the pulp and paper industry; however, many other industrial processes are suitable for this pump.
