Vertical, multistage, ring section pumps in can-type version

Frontal, technically detailed view of the suction stage of an Apollo VS6 pump. The high-pressure pump is placed on a packaging base, and the pump chamber is located next to it.

The vertical, multi-stage, sectional, can-type pumps (type VS6) according to the ISO standard or API 610 are high-performance, vertically suspended centrifugal pumps. They have been specially developed for applications involving large delivery heads and demanding operating conditions. The characteristic can design (double casing) encloses the multistage hydraulic system, enabling a compact, pressure-stable and easy-to-maintain design.

The axially arranged impellers ensure high pressures at variable flow rates. The motor, bearings and hydraulic section are structurally separated: the drive is located at the top in a dry environment while the multi-stage pump section is housed in the pot casing. The API 610 VS6 design meets the highest safety, material, vibration behaviour and operational reliability requirements. It is ideal for critical processes in the energy, oil and gas, and chemical industries.

Typical applications range from condensate and booster applications to transport, water injection and processing tasks, as well as pumping demanding media such as crude oil, LPG/LNG, propane, process condensates, solvents and coolants.

Advantages of vertical can-type pumps

A vertical high-pressure pump (Apollotyp GLKV, VS1 according to API 610) hangs from a crane and is inserted into the pump can. The pump is installed in a liquid ammonia plant while a worker in safety clothing supervises the crane assembly. An industrial plant and blue, cloudless sky can be seen in the background.
  • series type series with best hydraulic values and well-balanced performance field
  • compact vertical design saves space and facilitates integration into systems
  • extremely reliable design in accordance with API 610 / ISO 13709 (VS6)
  • high operational reliability and customer-specific design

Typical areas of application

  • condensate pumping in power plants and industrial facilities
  • applications in the oil and gas industry, refineries
  • as booster and transport pumps
  • Offshore applications
  • liquefied gas applications
  • crude oil applications
  • water injection
