The Apollo AMG process pump, which complies with API 610 Type BB3, is a horizontal, multistage, high-pressure pump that provides exceptional stability and reliability. Designed for demanding applications in the oil and gas industry and petrochemical plants, it is ideal for use in critical operating environments. The back-to-back rotor design minimises axial thrust, and the optimised rotor dynamics ensure safe operation at high speeds. This guarantees efficiency and performance in critical operating environments.

Axially split high-pressure pump with centre support on both sides: Offers increased stability and service life.

Counter-rotating impellers: Ensure optimum axial thrust compensation and reduce mechanical stress.

Specialised NPSH impeller in the first stage: Optimises cavitation characteristics and improves pump performance.

Bearing design: Available with roller or plain bearings for flexible use and increased operating comfort.

Reduced downtime: The axially split housing allows maintenance and inspection work to be carried out while the lower part remains on the pipeline; dismantling of the coupling is not necessary.
