Products > Chemical Process Equipment: Centrifugal Pumps

Canned

Canned Centrifugal Pumps. These centrifugal pumps are used when materials are hazardous and the risk of a leak unacceptable. They are enclosed in a can or container that has no seals that can fail. Canned pumps are of two types. One type has a separate external motor which drives the pump. Magnetic drives act as a link between the shaft and impeller. The other type has the motor and pump in an enclosure with only the electrical connections for the motor passing through the can. Because there are no moving parts in the electrical connection, there is no possibility of a leak.
