Why Choose a Vertical Double-Suction Centrifugal Pump?
Stable Flow at High Capacity
Double-suction impellers enable symmetrical fluid intake, minimizing turbulence and ensuring stable hydraulics for high-volume operations. This makes the Type CDB Vertical Double-Suction Centrifugal Pump ideal for systems that demand continuous, reliable flow.
Space-Saving Vertical Design
The vertical configuration allows the pump to occupy less floor space and integrate more easily into tight machinery spaces or compact system layouts.
Proven Across Multiple Applications
The Type CDB Vertical Double-Suction Centrifugal Pump is trusted across a variety of marine and industrial use cases, including:
Cooling fresh water and sea water loops
Ballast water transfer
Emergency fire water systems (subject to classification standards)
Selection and Customization Guidance
To ensure optimal performance and compatibility with your system, consider the following when specifying a Type CDB Vertical Double-Suction Centrifugal Pump:
Define the duty point: Flow rate (m³/h) and head (m)
Select appropriate nozzle size: ϕ300 to ϕ550 mm
Identify fluid type: Fresh or sea water, along with temperature and potential solids content
Specify material and seal requirements: Based on corrosion resistance and operating conditions
Determine motor requirements: Voltage, frequency, efficiency class, and protection rating
Confirm certification and documentation: As per class society and project requirements
