Product descriptionThe NCTR type is a spiral-casing vertical submerged pump manufactured to API 610 with shaft sealing, design VS4. The hydraulic pump section is installed in the tank or directly in the conveyed medium. Connection is via a multistage shaft and pipe column. Pump and drive shafts are supported by sleeve bearings; the upper drive shaft is fixed by a grease-lubricated double-row angular contact ball bearing, permitting immersion depths up to 6 m.
