Shearpeller

The unique Shearpeller impeller design is now available on many of this firm’s pump lines, including pumps for pulp and paper, chemical processing, wastewater, mining and mineral processing. This Shearpeller design features a tapered inlet sleeve that prevents contaminants from plugging the impeller inlet area. The sleeve is loose to rotate independently from impeller. The slower rotation prevents contaminants from collecting at the impeller eye and prevents erosion of the hub. Contaminants such as tape, plastic bands and similar debris can plug the impeller inlet and disrupt operations. The Shearpeller design helps solve this problem by providing a generous front clearance with vortex- type design that prevents binding and plugging.
