The new 1988-89 catalog of impellers, published by Barco Corporation of Tampa, Fla., includes two new elastomer Cam/Pumpliners.
According to the company, the Barco elastomer products are extremely resistant to sand abrasion and friction caused by dry running.
The Cam/Pumpliners 457 and 613, listed on page 1 of the catalog, are for the Jabsco 17000 and 18000 seawater pumps used on various Caterpillar, Cummins and Detroit Diesel marine engines.
The 12-page catalog, which is effective September 1, 1988, includes the Barco Impeller Cross Reference Index and Silhouette Guide. A new retail price list, also effective September 1,1988, is inserted.
Included in the publication are tables listing model numbers, impeller dimensions, shaft diamemter dimension and number of blades.
Also included are disassembly and assembly instructions for changing Barco impellers.
According to Barco, their impellers are the only flexible impellers guaranteed to run dry 15 minutes.
Barco elastomer products are now used by the United States Coast Guard.
