BINGHAM 3X6X9E MSD MULTI-STAGE PUMP, 250HP

THE BINGHAM 3X6X9E MSD IS A HORIZONTALLY MOUNTED, AXIALLY SPLIT, MULTISTAGE CENTRIFUGAL PUMP ENGINEERED FOR HIGH-PRESSURE, CONTINUOUS-DUTY SERVICE IN CRITICAL INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS. ACCORDING TO THE NAMEPLATE, THIS UNIT IS RATED AT 400 GPM AT 1637 FT TOTAL DYNAMIC HEAD WHEN OPERATING AT 3550 RPM. THE PUMP IS CONFIGURED WITH A 3 IN DISCHARGE AND 6 IN SUCTION, WITH 9.88 IN IMPELLERS SIZED TO DELIVER HIGH HEAD PER STAGE WHILE MAINTAINING HYDRAULIC EFFICIENCY ACROSS THE DUTY RANGE. THE MSD ARCHITECTURE EMPLOYS OPPOSED IMPELLER STAGING WITHIN AN AXIALLY SPLIT CASING TO INHERENTLY BALANCE AXIAL THRUST, REDUCING BEARING LOADS AND EXTENDING SERVICE INTERVALS. MATERIALS OF CONSTRUCTION ARE DESIGNATED S‑6, SUITABLE FOR HYDROCARBON AND PROCESS WATER SERVICES, COMPLEMENTED BY A HYDROSTATIC TEST RATING OF 2200 PSI AND A MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE WORKING PRESSURE OF 1480 PSI AT 106°F, INDICATING ROBUST PRESSURE CAPABILITY AND CASING INTEGRITY. THE UNIT IS EQUIPPED WITH ELU RADIAL BEARINGS AND A T‑18 THRUST BEARING ARRANGEMENT TO HANDLE RESIDUAL AXIAL AND RADIAL FORCES AT THE SPECIFIED SPEED. WITH A NAMEPLATE SPECIFIC GRAVITY OF 0.92, THE HYDRAULIC PERFORMANCE IS ALIGNED TO LIGHT HYDROCARBON OR SIMILAR FLUIDS, THOUGH THE DESIGN IS ADAPTABLE TO OTHER MEDIA WITHIN THE MSD SERIES ENVELOPE. TYPICAL SERVICES INCLUDE PIPELINE BOOSTING, BOILER FEED, WATER INJECTION, AND HIGH-PRESSURE TRANSFER IN REFINING, PETROCHEMICAL, AND POWER MARKETS. THE AXIALLY SPLIT CASE ALLOWS RAPID MAINTENANCE ACCESS TO ROTATING ELEMENTS WITHOUT DISTURBING FLANGES OR PIPING, MINIMIZING MEAN TIME TO REPAIR AND SUPPORTING HIGH RELIABILITY IN CONTINUOUS OPERATIONS.
