A variation of the drive system uses the Nuphlo Model C200 centrifugal, 316L stainless steel pump, close-coupled to a 9 hp,
11 hp or 13 hp Honda engine.
For smaller milk tankers or products requiring gentle handling, the C200 model centrifugal
is also used close-coupled to the Honda 5.5 hp motor
with
2:1 gear reduction. The output shaft has a maximum speed of 1800 rpm
on this motor, whereas, the non-gearbox
versions spin up to
3600 rpm which is considered too fast for shear sensitive
products.
Uses
- Where portability is necessary, there is no access to electric power or the capital outlay of a hydraulic drive system is not warranted.
- Is generally used on smaller road tankers carrying food products, chemicals, etc. as a discharge pump, to supply customers’ installations.
Features
- All the special features relevant to the Nuphlo C200 centrifugal pump … more features of centrifugal pumps.
- Close-coupled to the Honda engine, i.e. no flexible coupling used, directly mounted on the crankshaft extension.
- BSPT threaded inlet and outlet to take reinforced plastic couplings used for acids and alkalis.
- Fitted with seals and ‘O’ rings to suit the product pumped.
