Sulzer Pumps
AHLSTAR End Suction Single Stage
Close Coupled Centrifugal Pump
The Heart of Your Process
Main Applications
AHLSTAR end suction single stage close coupled centrifugal pumps are designed for industrial applications
to pump:
Clean and slightly contaminated liquids
Viscous liquids
Fibrous slurries
Non-fibrous slurries
Liquids containing large solids
The pumps are also suited to the pumping of liquids
with a high gas content of up to 40% of free gases or
up to 70% of bound gases.

Features and Benefits
1 Versatile selection of reliable, high efficiency Sulzer
EnerSave impellers
Reduce life-cycle costs, especially energy consumption,
operation time and downtime costs
2 Innovative and reliable integrated degassing and selfpriming units
For a variety of applications with difficult liquids
3 Integrated vacuum pump
Designed to help the centrifugal pump start quickly when
the liquid level is below the pump in self-priming applications
4 Patented, strong, reliable Rotokey impeller mounting
Enables an easy and quick dismantling and assembly
Helps to minimize maintenance costs
5 Patented externally adjusted side plate
Allows easy and quick impeller clearance setting to maintain
continuous high efficiency and minimize life-cycle costs
6 Patented balancing holes
Secure good liquid circulation behind the impeller and in
the seal chamber
Guarantee optimal conditions for shaft seal by reducing
unexpected shutdowns and minimizing operation and
maintenance costs
IMB5 flange motor
7 Proven Sulzer WaterLess shaft seal
Dynamic seal, single and double mechanical seals,
gland packing
Cost savings with fast and easy installation
No measurements needed
8 Standard IEC dimensioned flange or flange/feet electric
motor with heavy-duty bearing unit arrangement
Shrink fitted sturdy shaft which is equally dimensioned with
the shaft of AHLSTAR long coupled pump
Possible to use same wet end and sealing unit components
which helps minimizing spare part inventory costs
9 Heavy-duty shaft
Minimizes deflection at stuffing box to less than 0.05 mm /
0.002 in
Helps to extend the shat seal lifetime and reduces
unexpected shutdowns and maintenance costs
