API Standard Pump BB2 – R2 (KBTS), R2D (KBTD)

API Standard Pump BB2 – R2 (KBTS), R2D (KBTD)

The R2 (KBTS)/R2D (KBTD) is an API BB2 type process pump with Centerline support. This pump with a heavy-duty design ensures high reliability and efficiency during stringent operating conditions. It is manufactured as per API 610. The back pullout feature ensures swift dismantling and assembly. This range of pumps come with a pump head of 520 m, with a discharge pressure of up to Cl. 600#. Nozzle orientation as top-top, side-top, side-side. The direction of rotation is clockwise from the coupling end and anti-clockwise is also possible if required. The R2 (KBTS)/R2D (KBTD) pump is suitable for applications in oil refineries and petrochemical industries and chemical and allied industries. The pump is designed to have maximum parts interchangeability.

Max Head:Upto 520 m Max capacity:Upto 1600 m3/hr
