Multistage Centrifugal Pumps – TS Series
Salvatore Robuschi TS pumps are multistage centrifugal pumps with closed impeller available with mechanical seal or gland packing packing. These pumps are available with a mounting flange or on a base, as well as in various configurations of the suction nozzle position relative to the discharge nozzle – left and right or top. Cooling chambers are supplied as standard equipment. Pumps of this series are characterized by easy disassembly, which helps reduce the amount of downtime required.
The TS series is designed to work in various applications and industries. It can pump clean or slightly contaminated liquids. It is used for powering boilers, fire-fighting installations, autoclaves, water supply systems, irrigation, car washes, for pumping hydrocarbons and wherever high pressure is required.

The impeller of a centrifugal pump is driven by a motor (most often electric) via a shaft. The pump head, along with the coupling and motor, constitutes the pump unit. In centrifugal pumps, gears are not used, and the rotational speed of the motor is transmitted directly. Most commonly, two- and four-pole motors are used (rotational speeds of approximately 2900 and 1450 rpm, respectively), and less frequently, six- and eight-pole motors are used (approximately 900 and 700 rpm).
A very important element of the pump is the seal at the point where the drive shaft enters the body. This seal is designed to prevent the pumped liquid from leaking out of the pump, maintain pressure inside the pump, and prevent air from entering the pump. Among the seals for centrifugal pumps, we can distinguish gland packing packings, single mechanical seals, and double mechanical seals. We also distinguish a special type of pump – sealless (hermetic) pumps.

Single mechanical seal
The most popular mechanical seals for use with non-contaminated liquids (no solids). The pumped liquid lubricates the sealing surface and dissipates heat. |

packing seal
Packing seal is a special cord wound around the shaft separating the space between the pump body and the drive. It does not provide 100% tightness due to the need for continuous lubrication and cooling of the cords. |
