NCT Series
The NCT Series
is a combined centrifugal pump and squirrel cage induction electric
motor built together into a single hermetically sealed unit. The
pump impeller is of the closed type, and is mounted on one end of
the rotor shaft which extends from the motor section into the pump
casing. The rotor is submerged in the fluid being pumped and is,
therefore, "canned" to isolate the motor parts from contact
with the fluid. Bearings are submerged in system fluid and are,
therefore, continually lubricated.
The Chempump has only one moving part, a combined rotor-impeller
assembly which is driven by the magnetic field of an induction
motor.
A portion of the pumped fluid is allowed to recirculate through
the rotor cavity to cool the motor and lubricate the bearings.
The
stator windings are protected from contact with the recirculating
fluid by a corrosion resistant, non-magnetic, alloy liner which
completely seals or "cans" the stator winding. The NCT
Series are designed to handle fluids at elevated temperatures
which,
in most applications, exceed the temperature limits of the motor
insulation system. The NCT Series design allows operation with
process
fluids up to 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit (538 degrees Celsius) while
maintaining the motor windings below the maximum recommended temperature.
