Axial Flow Pumps also known as Propeller pumps
Axial flow propeller pumps are one of three subtypes of centrifugal pumps, the others being mixed flow and radial flow. Of these three types of pumps, pumps are characterized by the highest flow rates and lowest discharge pressures.
Propeller pump direct flow in a straight line parallel to the impeller shaft rather than radially (perpendicular to the shaft). Pump impeller is shaped like a propeller and contains only a few (typically three or four) vanes. The impeller is driven by a motor that is either sealed directly in the pump body or by a drive shaft that enters the pump tube from the side. The impeller looks and operates similar to a boat propeller, which is the reason why axial flow pumps are also called propeller pumps.. read more
Axial Flow Pumps are unmatched in the Industry
Axial flow pump is unmatched in the industry for low head/high capacity pumping requirements, especially when corrosive or abrasive solutions or slurries are involved. Extended service life, mechanical reliability, custom designs and a wide range of materials allow the propeller pump to pump practically any liquid.
An axial flow pump has a propeller-type of impeller running in a casing. The pressure in the pump is developed by the flow of liquid over the blades of impeller. The fluid is pushed in a direction parallel to the shaft of the impeller, that is, fluid particles, in course of their flow through the pump, do not change their radial locations. It allows the fluid to enter the impeller axially and discharge the fluid nearly axially.
Axial Flow Pump is the converse of the axial flow turbine
Axial flow pump is the converse of axial flow turbine and is very similar to it in appearance. The pump impeller consists of a central boss with a number of blades mounted on it. The impeller rotates within a cylindrical casing with fine clearance between the blade tips and the casing walls. Fluid particles, in course of their flow through the pump, do not change their radial locations. The inlet guide vanes are provided to properly direct the fluid to the rotor. The outlet guide vanes are provided to eliminate the whirling component of velocity at discharge.

Read MoreProduce of INDIA - Axial Flow Pump / Propeller Pumps
Propeller pumps are high-capacity, low-head pumps for contaminated and clean water. The range of our axial flow propeller pumps makes them the ideal choice for a number of applications and for meeting specific performance requirements. Propeller pump can be installed in many different ways to ensure a cost-effective pump solution with high quality products and low overall costs.
Axial flow propeller pumps are used to pump large
volumes with a relatively short pump head. Propeller
pumps are widely used in the chemical and processing
industries‚ sewage water treatment plants‚
re-circulation for handling return sludge or rainwater
and generating drinking water (seawater desalination
plants).
JEC AF series propeller pumps are available as
horizontal or vertical pumps‚ Propeller pumps are suspended into the
pipeline or horizontally foot-mounted. The pump design‚
material selection‚ installation and drive can be adapted
optimally to the operation and assembling conditions.
Apart from Propeller pumps, we also manufacture wide range of Chemical Process Centrifugal Pumps, Pinch valves and other Industrial valves.
