KB Series Heavy Duty, Abrasion-Resistant Solids Handling Pumps Information

Features & Benefits

The KB Series combines durability, abrasion resistance, and high hydraulic performance to provide a reliable solution for handling abrasive slurries. The integrated agitator ensures consistent solids suspension, improving pump efficiency and reducing maintenance requirements.

Top discharge design improves cooling performance and allows the pump to operate at lower water levels, enhancing overall usability in dewatering applications.

Construction and Operational Design

KB pumps are constructed using a combination of cast iron, ductile iron, and high-chrome iron components. The impeller, wear plate, and agitator are made from abrasion-resistant hi-chrome material, which significantly reduces wear in slurry applications.

The pump is equipped with a double mechanical seal system. The lower seal uses silicon carbide faces for durability in abrasive conditions, while the upper seal utilizes carbon/ceramic faces. A heavy-duty lip seal provides additional protection against fluid intrusion.

Each unit is powered by a high-speed 2-pole motor operating at approximately 3450 RPM. Class H insulation ensures the motor can withstand demanding thermal conditions, while built-in thermal and amperage protection safeguards against overheating.

A cooling jacket circulates pumped liquid around the motor housing, maintaining proper operating temperatures during continuous duty operation.

Design Characteristics

Abrasion Resistance: Hi-chrome iron components in impeller, wear plate, and agitator

Agitator Design: Integrated agitator keeps solids suspended and prevents settling

Discharge Configuration: Top discharge design improves cooling and pump-down capability

Seal System: Double mechanical seal with silicon carbide lower seal and carbon/ceramic upper seal

Cooling System: Jacketed motor uses pumped liquid for cooling

Solids Handling: Capable of handling solids up to 1 inch (model dependent)

Motor Design: 2-pole motor (~3450 RPM) with Class H insulation

Protection Features: Built-in thermal and overload protection

Technical Summary

Power Range: 7.5 HP to 30 HP

Flow Capacity: Up to ~750+ GPM

Head Range: Up to ~186 ft

Solids Handling: Up to 1 inch

Temperature Capability: Up to 104°F (40°C)

Motor Speed: ~3450 RPM


Typical Services & Ideal Applications

The KB Series is designed for abrasive slurry and heavy-duty dewatering applications where solids and wear are major concerns. These pumps are commonly used in mining, construction dewatering, aggregate processing, and industrial wastewater systems.

Their combination of abrasion resistance, high performance, and integrated agitation makes them an excellent choice for maintaining reliable operation in the most challenging slurry environments.
