Blackmer System One High Temperature Series Pump

Blackmer Centrifugal High Temperature Series

The pre-configured Blackmer Centrifugal High Temperature Series has increased the max temperature limits for Frame A and Frame M Centrifugal Pumps with the 450°F Line and 650°F Line. Now able to exceed the 400°F (204°C) standard temperature limit of Centrifugal Pumps, the High Temp Series allows for maximum temperatures of up to 450°F (232°C) with 450°F Line, 650°F (343°C) with the 650°F Line or even up to 750°F (398°C) with additional configurations and factory consultation. Utilizing high temperature flanges and elastomers, along with the unique centerline mount that supports high temperatures, the Blackmer Centrifugal High Temperature Series further entrenches these pumps ability to safely transfer critical and valuable fluids reliability in the harshest of service conditions.

High Temperature Series Advantages

Seal Chamber Jacket

Seal Chamber Jacket

A water jacketed seal chamber is available for Frame S, A, and M pumps. The jacket should be considered for any application over 350°F (177°C). When a jacket is installed, ambient temperature water at 2-3 gpm (0.45 to 0.68 m3/hr) will be required for proper cooling of the seal chamber.

Cooling Coil

Cooling Coil

Water cooling of the bearing frame is accomplished with the optional cooling coil. The cooling coil allows for oil to be cooled directly, thus cooling the bearings simultaneously. The cooling coil is required only when the pumped media temperature exceeds 400°F (204°C) at 1800 rpm or 300°F (149°C) at 3600 rpm. Under these conditions, ambient temperature water at 1-3 gpm (0.23 to 0.68 m3/hr) will be required for proper cooling of the oil.

Oil Sight Gas

Oil Sight Glass

This standard feature on all Blackmer® Centrifugal Pumps allows for easy monitor of the pump oil levels. The oil level in the bearing frame should be one-half (1/2) of the way up the oil sight glass with the unit not operating. Blackmer offers an optional second oil sight glass on the opposite side of the bearing housing for easier monitoring of the oil level.

Oil Temperature Monitor

Oil Temperature Monitor

Normal operating oil temperature should be below 160°F (71°C) and should never exceed 180°F (82°C). The optional oil temperature monitor is recommended for all applications, especially for high temperature. The device simply screws into the 1/4" NPT connection and instantly registers the temperature of the oil.

High Temperature Paint

High Temperature Paint

Blackmer Centrifugal high temperature paint is made from a specially formulated epoxy coating that will not degrade from the high temperatures within the pump. High temperature paint is recommended for pumps operating above 375°F (191°C).

Now hear from our customers about what they had to say about Blackmer Centrifugal Pumps:

“Compared to the competition, Blackmer Centrifugal Pumps gives us the reliability and dependability we need to minimize downtime and stay competitive.”
- Jaydee Bullard, Manager of Terminals & Construction at Caljet

“It all comes down to reliability. Centrifugal pumps can operate across a wide range of their performance curve with minimal shaft deflection, which, in turn, increases mechanical seal and bearing life.”
– Anthony Paul, Director of PumpNSeal Pty. Ltd.

“The operational data of our Blackmer Centrifugal pumps proves their great reliability.”
– David Alexander, Owner of Caljet

“Blackmer offers a truly successful solution. Centrifugal Pumps deliver a truly reliable, trouble-free service.”
– Tony Ryder, Managing Director of REL

“The Centrifugal pump is perfect. We have spares, but they have been sitting on the shelf for years gathering dust because we never need them.”
– Tim Gardner, Maintenance Manager at Caljet

“From the initial engineering to the quality workmanship, Blackmer makes the perfect pump that, once put into service, will keep on running.”
– Jaydee Bullard, Manager of Terminals & Construction at Caljet
