FYBROC – THE LEADER IN CORROSION-RESISTANTFIBERGLASS PUMPING EQUIPMENTFybroc is an advanced technology pump manufacturerspecializing in reinforced composite centrifugalpumps, designed to handle corrosive liquids.Fybroc, the pioneer in the fiberglass pump field, continuesits position of leadership with its Series 1500pump. This line is the culmination of many years ofexperience in producing high quality, corrosion-resistantpumps.The Series 1500 combines an extensive knowledge ofmaterials and production techniques to provide exceptionalstructural integrity, excellent corrosion resistance, anddependable service in difficult operating environments.MATERIALS OF CONSTRUCTION ARE AVAILABLEFOR A WIDE RANGE OF CORROSIVE LIQUIDSOnly Fybroc has the flexibility in materials selection tosolve your difficult corrosive or abrasive pump problems.• VR-1, vinyl ester resin: used for the vast majority ofcorrosive applications including most acids,caustics, brines, sea water, and wastewater.• VR-1 BPO-DMA, vinyl ester resin with BPO-DMAcure system: used to accommodate applications forspecific corrosion resistance to bleaches such assodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and hydrogenperoxide (H 2 O 2 ).• VR-1A, vinyl ester resin with abrasive resistantmaterial : used for pumping liquids with lowconcentration highly abrasive fines such asfly ash, diatomaceous earth or titaniumdioxide.• VR-1V, vinyl ester resin with syntheticveil: protection used specifically forfluoridic applications such ashydrofluoric acid (HF) and fluosilicicacid (H 2 SiF 6 ).• EY-2, epoxy resin: offers outstandingchemical resistance for aggressivechemical/compounds, acids,and solvents. Ideal for high concentrationsof sulfuric acid (up to98%).FDA COMPLIANCEThe Dow DERAKANE series epoxy vinyl ester resinutilized by Fybroc, when properly formulated and cured,will comply with the U.S. Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act,as amended, and applicable FDA regulations (21 CFR177.2420). These resins may be used as articles or componentsof articles intended forrepeated use in contact with food,subject to certain limitationsdescribed in that regulation.For further information on corrosionresistance to specificchemicals, please refer tothe Fybroc website atwww.fybroc.com.2

DESIGN FEATURES OF THE SERIES 1500 PUMPThe Fybroc Series 1500 pump is designed for broadcorrosion-resistance through the use of high qualitymaterials and state-of-the-art engineering. Its simplicityand versatility make it the ideal choice for all demandingpumping requirements.The fiberglass components are manufactured utilizing theResin Transfer Molding technique which enables completecontrol of the fiberglass reinforcement in high stressareas. Metallic pump components are NOT in contactwith process fluids.12 13141110 94

ANSI/ASME B73.1 CONFOR-MANCE ensures maximum interchangeabilitywith existing metal ANSI pumps,thereby eliminating any need for pipingor foundation changes when up-gradingan installation to Fybroc Series 1500pumps.12345672. SMOOTH HYDRAULIC PASSAGESpromote increased pump efficiency.3. SINGLE ONE-PIECE GUSSETEDCASINGeasily withstands the rigors of normalplant piping loads.4. IMPELLER PUMP-OUT VANES andrelief holes minimize axial unbalanceand lower stuffing box pressure.5. ALLOY INSERT (integrally molded withimpeller) with rounded edges carriesimpeller torque loads with low stress.6. VERSATILE CASING COVER is suitablefor use with most single outside ordouble inside mechanical seals withoutmodifications. See page 7 for some ofthe most frequently used configurationsand page 8 for seal flush considerations.7. CONTINUOUS-STRAND FIBER-GLASS CONSTRUCTION for all wettedparts in either vinyl ester or epoxyresin provides maximum corrosion resistancefor a wide range of difficult liquids.8. CASING THROUGH-BOLTS maintaincasing o-ring seal integrity under allhydraulic operating conditions.9. INTEGRAL SHAFT SLEEVE designeliminates gaskets and o-rings andprotects the pump shaft from exposure tothe process fluid.10. LARGE-CAPACITY BEARINGS ensureoperating life well in excess of theminimum specified by ANSI/ASMEB73.1.811. EXTERNAL IMPELLER ADJUST-MENT allows field setting of impeller-tocasingclearance.12. HEAVY-DUTY SHAFT minimizesdeflec-tion to maximize mechanical seallife.13. POLYESTER THERMOSETTINGPOWDER COATED POWER FRAMEcomponents prevent external corrosion.14. LABYRINTH OIL SEALS nickel platedbronzefor longer life. Improved oilcontainment.5

DESIGN PROVIDES FOR MAXIMUMSEAL AND BEARING LIFEThe Series 1500 pumps have been designed to maximizethe life of bearings and mechanical seals which candeteriorate because of shaft deflection resulting fromradial thrust. Radial thrust is the force acting on the sideof an impeller as a result of the non-uniform distributionof pressure around the pump casing at off-peak operation.The magnitude of this thrust varies with the flow, but theamount of radial thrust can roughly be cut in half by utilizinga double volute casing. The solid line in the chart tothe right depicts the typical radial thrust characteristic of asingle volute casing. The dotted line portrays the use of adouble volute casing and the resulting reduction in radialthrust.The drawing at lower right shows the location of the“cutwater” in volute casings. The cutwater is the closeclearance extension of the casing located at the base ofthe volute. Also, shown in orange, is the second cutwateror “splitter” used in the double volute casing, whichchannels half of the flow to the pump discharge. The splitterreduces the pressure imbalance in the casing duringoff-peak flows and reduces both radial thrust and itsresulting shaft deflection. Fybroc uses double volute casingsin eleven of its larger pump sizes where, typically,radial thrust loadings are higher.

INTEGRAL IMPELLER AND• “ONE-PIECE” impeller and shaft sleeve• “NO” shaft sleeve o-rings required• Semi-open type with pump-out vanes and balanceholes designed to minimize axial unbalanceand lower stuffing box pressureMECHANICAL SEALFybroc Series 1500 pumps are available with a wide variety of mechanical seal arrangements. For corrosivefluid handling, single outside and double inside seals are recommended. The single outside seals havenon-metallic wetted parts and all metal components located outside the pump. The double inside mechanicalseals have metallic parts that are exposed to buffer fluid only and are designed to limit the process fluidcontact to non-metallic components.The following illustrations outline some commonly used sealing arrangements. See page 8 for seal flush considerations.Additional mechanical seal configurations (for example, cartridge designs) are available as options.CRANE 8B2FLOWSERVE RACCRANE TYPE 8-1TFLOWSERVE RXO7

SEAL FLUSHING ARRANGEMENTSAll mechanical seals require flushing to lubricate the seal facesand maintain normal operating temperatures. Seals are normallyflushed with either a clean external fluid or by the liquid beingpumped. Fybroc Series 1500 pumps are furnished, as standard,with tapped glands for connection to the flush liquid or with theoptional configurations shown below.INTERNAL COVER FLUSHFybroc’s Internal Cover Flush option eliminates the need forexternal flushing of single mechanical seals from the pumpdischarge, which also eliminates the possible breakage ofexternal tubing and fittings.This option removes seal heat by circulating high pressureliquid internally through the drilled cover to the seal chamberand then recirculating this liquid back to the low pressure sideof the pump.HighPressureLiquidLowPressureLiquidFYBROC’S OPTIONAL FLUSH ASSEMBLYPACKAGEThe flush assembly* consists of the following items:1) Shut off valve and pressure gauge mounted on epoxy-coatedsteel bracket. Inlet side.2) Solenoid valve and flow meter/metering valve mounted onepoxy-coated steel bracket. Outlet side.3) Necessary tubing and fittings to pipe system to seal gland.*Note: The assembly is intended for use on pumps withdouble inside mechanical seals (Crane 8-1T, Flowserve RXO).Consult Factory for additional “special” configurations.The system is designed to operate as follows:1) Flush water is brought to the inlet side of the system andpiped away to a suitable drain on the outlet side.2) The normally closed solenoid valve is wired into the motorstarter controls and opens when the motor is energized.3) The inlet shut-off valve would remain open at all times andwould be used only when the system needed to be isolatedfor maintenance purposes.4) The flow meter/metering valve would be adjusted as necessaryto obtain a reading of 1 /4 - 1 /2 GPM.When properly installed and operated as referenced above, theflush system will ensure that the mechanical seal is operating in theproper environment and is being cooled and lubricated asrequired.8
