Spindle screw pumps

Third Quarter 2021 Shaft power components

BMG supplies and supports the full range of SEIM spindle screw pumps, flow meters and in-line relief valves. “These robust pumps and related products – which are manufactured to stringent quality specifications in accordance with ISO 9001:2000 standards – are designed for dependable use in many sectors, including mining, power generation (wind and hydropower), petrochemical, oil and gas, paper, steel, automotive and marine industries,” says national product manager, Joe Pinheiro, “Key advantages of SEIM pumps include low pulsation levels, reduced noise during operation and high self-priming capabilities. These pumps are able to handle high viscosities and ensure optimal performance, even with air entrapped in oil. The design of these low maintenance units prevents the possibility of pollutants being released into the medium.”

BMG’s SEIM range encompasses three spindle screw pumps for viscosities up to 100 000 cst, available with or without built-in relief valves and two spindle screw pumps for viscosities up to 20 000 cst, available with or without gear drives. SEIM pumps are also available in accordance with the latest edition of API 676. Flow meters are rated for 200 and 400 bar and in-line relief valves facilitate flows up to 10 000 l/min up to 100 bar.

Pumps can also be customised to offer up to 20 000 l/min and up to 200 bar, depending on requirements. SEIM pumps can efficiently handle mineral and synthetic oils, HFO and LFO fuel oils, diathermic oils and liquids with little or no lubricating properties, as well as liquids in the food and pharmaceutical sectors.
