The units maintain a high level of pumping efficiency, even in fluids with high solids and fibrous content. The pump's open-type self-cleaning impeller is complemented by a special relief groove in the volute, designed to reduce the risk of clogging. The pumps do not require labor-intensive periodic cleaning. Increased efficiency translates into lower overall energy consumption, a significant factor in reducing the whole-life cost of a pumping operation.ITT Flygt Corp.Trumbull, CTTel: 203-380-4700Web: www.flygtus.com
