6.2 Design of product
• Helix pumps are vertical high pressure non-self
priming pumps with inline connection based on
multistage design.
• Helix pumps combine use of both high efficiency
hydraulics and motors (if any).
• All metallic parts in contact with water are made
of stainless steel.
• For aggressive fluid, special versions exist with
stainless steel only for all wetted components.
• A cartridge seal is used as standard for all Helix
range in order to ease maintenance.
• In addition, for heaviest motor > 90lbs (40Kg), a
specific coupling allows to change this seal with-
out removing the motor.
• Helix lantern design integrates an additional ball
bearing that withstand hydraulic axial forces: this
allows the pump to use a fully standard motor.
• Special handling devices are integrated in order to
facilitate pump installation.
7. Installation and electrical connection
Installation and electrical work in compliance
with any local codes and by qualified personnel
only.
