LCC-R Slurry Pumps
LCC-R Slurry Pumps are heavy-duty slurry pumps for abrasive or abrasive-corrosive service. These pumps are available in split-case, elastomer-lined construction.

Materials Overview
LCC Series Slurry Pumps are available in three material configurations: all hard metal; split-case, rubber-lined with metal or elastomer-lined impeller; and extra-heavy, all metal. The all-metal design may develop slightly more head at a given speed and is capable of operating at much higher speeds than the elastomer design.

The wet ends of the LCC slurry pump are interchangeable. The hard metal shell, impeller and suction piece can be interchanged with the ductile iron outer casings, rubber liners and elastomer or metal impeller. The pump shaft, suction and discharge piping are not affected. This feature provides excellent adaptability to meet changing pumping conditions.

LCC Series Slurry Pumps feature pedestals and bearing housings of gray cast iron. The metal casings of LCC rubber-lined pumps are cast of ductile iron for increased pressure rating.

Maximize Wear Life
All GIW shells are designed for maximum wear life using GIW’s predictive wear computer program. The impeller is designed for wear-resistant operation in highly abrasive slurries using GIW’s flow simulation computer program. Its twisted-vane design provides you with highly efficient passage of large solids, superior suction performance and excellent wear resistance. The suction-side plate of the LCC-M and the suction-side liner of the LCC-R can be rotated at intervals to increase wear life.

Reduce and Simplify Maintenance
The features built into GIW pumps reduce maintenance costs. For example, the cast ring on the hub side of the shell fits into a rabbet groove on the pedestal. It supports the weight of the shell and provides automatic alignment. It also allows the shell to be installed in any discharge position of 45 degree increments.

The radial bearings are a self-aligning, double-row, spherical roller-type design and are adapter mounted. They minimize shaft deflection and axial movement. This arrangement accepts mechanical seals without any change in the bearings. The slip on shaft sleeve has a heavy-fused, carbide coating, which results in extended sleeve and packing life.

A machined saddle on the pedestal and a machined fit on the split-cartridge bearing housing provides automatic alignment. An adjusting screw located at the end of the pedestal simplifies impeller clearance adjustment for maximum wear life and pump performance.
