- Reduced number of stages results in shorter, more reliable pumps
- Double suction on larger sizes can reduce pump length
- High efficiency with reduced power consumption
- Modular construction to fit project nozzle location requirements
- High head per stage means process conditions can be reached with slower speeds
SJT-API vertically suspended process pump
Vertically suspended pumps to boost your production
Sulzer’s API 610 Type VS1/VS2 vertical pumps are based on proven designs, continuously improved and optimized based on decades of operational experience. Sulzer's low Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) 1st stage, followed by unique high head per stage series hydraulics, minimize the number of stages required, reducing pump length and contractor’s associated civil costs.
