The Flux F 716 Centrifugal Vertical Immersion Pumps are popular within the chemical industry, chemical engineering, electroplating industry, water treatment, waste water treatment systems and steel or stainless steel pickling plants for transferring and circulating corrosive or neutral liquids.

The Flux F716 vertical shaft pump is specifically designed for stationary applications, available in four different sizes: 115, 135, 185 and 230 in PP or PVDF to meet a diverse range of application requirements. As neither bearings nor seals are in contact with the liquid, the chemical pump is very wear resistant and suitable for dry running. A vapour seal prevents any gasses coming into contact with the motor.

This cantilever pump has a suction strainer welded into the cover of the pump housing or onto the extension tube, protecting the pump against the ingress of coarse impurities.

Features of the F 716 Vertical Cantilever Pump:

  • Centrifugal vertically immersed pump
  • Compact design requiring very little head room above the mounting flange
  • Suitable for dry running
  • Suitable for pumping corrosive or neutral liquids at high temperatures
  • Very smooth running, due to robust support tube or support bars solidly connected to the mounting flange for temperatures up to 80°C (PP) or 100°C (PVDF)
  • Very long service life and extended maintenance intervals, even in the case of continuous use.
  • 4 sizes available in polypropylene or PVDF. Immersion lengths: 300, 400, 500 plus extension tube up to 1000 mm max. Custom lengths available upon request
  • Available with a wide range of three phase motors from 0.37 to 5.5 kW, 2850 rpm, jet-proof to IP 55.
  • Seal ensures no vapour escape

The Flux F 716 PP & PVDF Vertical Sump Pumps available with the following material options:

Polypropylene (PP)
Inner TubeX
Outer TubeX
ImpellerX

FAQs

Otherwise known as a vertical column pump, this is where there is an elongated shaft to separate the motor above the fluid from the pump that is immersed in the fluid.

As the pump head is within the fluid, vertically immersed pumps maintain a flooded suction. They are therefore ideal for applications where typically a self-priming pump is required, such as the emptying of tanks, reservoirs, sumps and wells.

The main difference is that whilst a submersible pump's full assembly including the motor is submerged in the fluid, with a vertical column pump, only the pump is and the motor remains dry above it.

To ensure you get the correct Flux spare parts, we need to identify the exact Flux pump model you have. Please provide the model and serial number found on the pump name plate.

Castle Pumps can supply all Flux pump parts detailed on the spare parts list including motor, o-ring, shaft seal, impeller, inner and outer tube worldwide.

If you are pumping one liquid or very similar liquids, you can use the F314 or F424 seal-less models provided that the materials are compatible, if you are pumping multiple diferent liquids or where cross contamination is not desirable use the F310 or F430 drum pumps.

The general rule of thumb is that for low-medium duty applications where viscosity is <250cP the F300 is sufficient. For heavy duty applications, flammable liquids and viscosities of <1200cP choose the F400. For shear sensitive fluids or viscosities that exceed 1200cP then the Viscpower is required. Upon disclosure of your application, we can confirm the best solution.

All Flux barrel and IBC pump models are available with additional accessories that we can supply as a kit should you need delivery hose, a trigger nozzle, valves, flow meter and any other fittings.
