Source Water Intake
Pleuger
SWRO source water intake requires pumps that are
SUBM
corrosion resistant and have the versatility to fit various
intake methods. Flowserve offers several highly
efficient vertical and horizontal pump models with
proven performance to suit application needs.
Flowserve vertical source water intake pumps include
conventional lineshaft or submersible motor, both offering
wide-capacity ranges to maximize system efficiency
while minimizing initial cost. Flowserve also offers
horizontal pumps for dry-pit installation or space-
saving vertical configurations which provide the
same premium efficiency with a reduced footprint.
Vertical, Wet-Pit Pumps
• Submersible pumps with oil or water filled motor
(Pleuger® SUBM)
• Single-stage and multistage pullout and non-pullout
mixed flow models (VCT)
Horizontal, Dry-Pit Pumps
• Between bearings, axially split, double volute,
double-suction pumps (LNN)
• Vertical configurations available for
limited space requirements (LNNV)
