  • B-series
  • BZ-series - Over 3 Inches Passage -
Tsurumi B-series pumps are basic heavy-duty, submersible sewage and wastewater pumps providing excellent solids matter passing capability with reliable operation. The B-series pumps have accumulated various track record and know-how in a wide range of industrial and water treatment applications for many years. Using a channel impeller, they are designed to minimize trouble due to clogged solids and fibrous matter in pumped fluids.

The B-series offers a wide lineup of discharge bores ranging from 50 - 300 mm and motor outputs of 0.4 - 75 kW, and comes in a variety of models including high head type and single-phase BP models that can handle high volume pumping demand. Particularly, the high head type pumps can satisfy the needs of the building equipment market that is oriented to saving energy and conserving water, and fit other high head market applications.
Moreover, the pumps can be used with Tsurumi’s guide rail fitting device that facilitates installation and maintenance (except for BP models).

Tsurumi pumps come packed with a number of original technologies we have developed and honed over years of research, including an anti-wicking cable, motor protector, dual inside mechanical seals with silicon carbide faces and Oil Lifter. Highly reliable and durable, Tsurumi pumps are designed and built for sound quality and prolonged continuous operation.

The B-series pumps can help you keep your systems . whether for wastewater drainage, water treatment, flood control, irrigation and recreation facilities . running stably and greatly reduce your maintenance costs.
Additionally, the pumps can be specially configured with discharge bores of 400 mm and greater, or as an option, adapted for dry pit applications where they can be installed indoors and outside a tank, as well as for seawater or high temperature liquids, paving the way for their use at shipyards and power plants for water intake and discharge.

Structure

The impeller employed by B-series pumps is itself configured like a channel to make it less likely for solids and fibrous matter to clog inside the pumps. Depending on the pumping capacity, the pump is outfitted with a semi-open or shrouded impeller, and either 1 or 2 vanes. Equipping your pump with the right impeller minimizes trouble caused by clogged solids.

  • Semi-open,Single-channel
  • Semi-open,Two-channel
  • Semi-open,Two-channel (High Head)
  • Shrouded,Two-channel
  • 1. Anti-wicking Cable Entry

    Prevents water incursion due to capillary action should the cable sheath be damaged or the end of cable submerged. Also prevents moist air from infiltrating the motor housing and condensation from forming inside the housing due to temperature differences between the housing and outside air.

  • 2. Motor Protector

    Circle Thermal Protector (7.5kW and below)

    Directly cuts the motor circuit if excessive heat builds up or overcurrent occurs in the motor.

    Miniature Thermal Protectors (11kW and above)

    React to excessive heat caused by dry-running. The bimetal strip opens to cause the control panel to shut the power supply.

  • 3. Water Jacket (150B475 only)

    The pump is equipped with a water jacket, around the motor frame. A portion of the pumped liquid is allowed to flow into the water jacket to cool the motor. This design feature permits the unit to operate at low water levels for extended periods of time.

  • 4. Dual Inside Mechanical Seals with Silicon Carbide Faces

    Isolated in the oil chamber where a clean, non-corrosive and abrasion-free lubricating environment is maintained.
    Compared with the water-cooled outside mechanical seal, it reduces the risk of failure caused by dry-heating and adhering matter. The silicon carbide provides 5 times higher corrosion, wear and heat resistance than the tungsten carbide. Rubber parts of the upper and lower fixing rings are made of NBR or FPM (FKM), which provides higher resistance to heat and chemicals.

  • 5. Oil Lifter

    Provides lubrication and cooling of the seal faces down to 1/3 of normal oil level, thus maintaining a stable shaft sealing effect and prolonging seal life longer. The Oil Lifter is Tsurumi original design.

  • 6. Leakage Sensor

    (18.5kW and above, excluding 150B422 and 200B422)

    Detects flooding into the oil chamber that may occur in a worst case scenario. When flooding is detected, signals are sent to operate the indicator lamps through the external control panel.

  • 7. Seal Pressure Relief Port

    (11kW and above of 80 & 100mm bore, 22kW and above of 150mm bore, and 200B422)

    Protect the mechanical seal from pump pressure. It also protects the seal face by discharging wear particles.

  • 8. Single/Triple Oil Seals *excluding some models

    Labyrinth Ring (150B475 only)

    Used as a “Dust Seal”, single or triple oil seals protect the mechanical seal from abrasive particles. The labyrinth ring is equipped to provide a better countermeasure against wear caused by high pressure generated in the casing and improve the maintainability.

  • 9. Air Release Valve

    Fitted on the water jacket or the pump casing to prevent the air lock. When air flows through the valve, the ball stays at the bottom, but when the pumped water starts to flow, the ball closes the outlet because of its buoyancy.

  • 10. Mouth Ring & Wear Ring

    (150B437 and 150B475 only)

    Prevent wear in the pump casing and suction cover, resulting in reduced maintenance costs.
