HPXM
API 610
Low Flow,
High Head
Horizontal
Process Pump

The Low Flow, High Head

Design HPXM is the pump of
choice for those applications
outside of the head-capacity
range served by the HPX line.
The HPXM, with over 100
hydraulics available in one
casing, with one impeller,
utilizes the standard HPX
bearing assembly. The HPXM
meets or exceeds the rigorous
requirements of API 610,
latest edition, and features
a fully compliant API 682
seal chamber.
Special Benefits of the HPXM
Design include:
Smooth and stable operation
outside the preferred
operating region specified
by API 610
Non-rising curve
characteristic towards
closed valve flow rates
Custom machined volute
insert, sized for a specific
head-capacity operating point
True horizontal centerline
mounted casing and bearing
configuration (API 610 OH2),
not a vertical pump turned
on its side

Pump Versatility and

Low Life-Cycle Cost
result from the unique
design features incorporated into the pump line,
including:
Replaceable volute
inserts to handle
changing operating
conditions
High efficiency
patented design radial
blade impeller
Full interchangeability
with HPX mechanical
seals and bearing
assemblies
Optional inducer to
handle low NPSHA
situations
Operating Parameters
Flows to 30 m3/h
(130 gpm)
Heads to 215 m
(700 ft)
Temperatures from
-160C (-250F) to
450C (850F)
Pressures to 80 bar
(1160 psi)

Options and
Technical Data

Inducer
A high specific speed, axial
flow pumping device, an inducer
provides significant improvement
in suction performance by
reducing pump NPSHR.

Low Flow Hydraulics

Multiple, radial blade impeller
provides better hydraulic fit
for low flow applications
and continuously rising
performance curve.

Volute Insert
Custom machined for
each application to give
best efficiency point fit
for any given set of
hydraulics.

Bearing Lubrication and

Cooling Options
Oil mist and oil purge for
continuous bearing lubrication
Fan cooling for high operating
or high ambient temperatures
Finned cooling insert for
efficient water cooling

Raised Face Flanges are to

ASME B16.5 criteria for Class
300 or 600. Surface finish
meets API 610 standard. ISO
and JIS flanges are available.

Back Pull-out of
rotating assembly
simplifies maintenance
as neither the motor
nor piping connections
are disturbed.

Cartridge Seal Mounting

assures:
Ease of maintenance
Precise seal face
setting for maximum seal life

Bearing Configurations
Standard single row, deep
groove, radial bearing and
duplex, single row, 40 angular
contact thrust bearings
Special bearing arrangements
for high suction pressures
