When suspended solids complicate your pumping chores, the Patterson Type “F” offers an efficient solution. These heavy duty, non-clogging workhorses are on the job worldwide in wastewater plants and industrial settings such as food plants, meat, poultry and fish processing facilities, pulp and paper mills, minerals plants, chemical plants--anywhere sludge or other unscreened solids with diameters up to 8 in. are found.

Large Type “F” units are available in more than 17 standard models and many custom configurations. Capacities range from 500 to 100,000 gpm, with heads to 150 ft. Where flows include abrasive solids, special, wear-resistant casings lengthen service life and reduce maintenance overhead. They are now available with a seal design that requires no flush water.

Vertical configurations are normally direct coupled. They can be designed for a dry pit where the intermediate drive shaft from the motor is located some distance above the pump. Intermediate shafting of the customer's choice is custom fabricated to desired lengths. Standard shafting is a universal joint type that will ensure satisfactory operation through temperature changes, foundation settling or other changing conditions.

Horizontal pumps are directly connected to the motor through a flexible coupling. Heavy duty cast iron and steel supports ensure long trouble-free service. Sturdy base plates can be fabricated to suit particular needs, with "drip lips" if desired. Large grout holes are provided in each base as standard.
