Industrial Applications

  • A new eight-page bulletin by Blackmer Pump Division of Dover Corporation, Grand Rapids, Mich., presents their full line of rotary positive displacement, sliding vane pumps for military, marine and specialized industrial applications. Included are pumps specifically designed for bilge, feed water, lube oil, liquid service, transfer and stripping applications.

    In addition to a description of the unique Blackmer design and operating features, the bulletin contains illustrated sections on individual pump series ranging in capacity from 5 to 730 gpm (0.19 to 2763 liters/minute) with operating pressures to 210 psi (14.7 kg/cm2)- The features and options of each pump series are described and performance charts and materials of construction are provided along with available unit mounting arrangements and drive styles.
