KM-Type Monoblock Cantilever Pumps
Cantilever Monoblock Pump is a monoblock centrifugal pump with the electric motor structurally integrated into the same housing and mounted on a common shaft. Unlike a Type K cantilever pump, where the pump and motor are installed separately and connected by a coupling on a common frame, a Type KM pump does not require additional shaft alignment during installation. This simplifies installation and reduces the risk of vibration caused by coupling misalignment.
Where Type KM Pumps Are Used
Type KM pumps are used in clean water supply systems at industrial, commercial, and infrastructure facilities, including water supply, pressure boosting, and circulation in water supply systems. The catalog features models with electric motor power ranging from 1.24 to 30 kW — from solutions for smaller facilities to systems handling significant pumping volumes.
Buy a KM Pump: How to Choose the Right Model
The choice between Type K and Type KM depends on the operating conditions. If compactness and simpler installation without coupling alignment are important, a KM monoblock centrifugal pump is an optimal choice. If the pump requires the ability to service or replace the motor separately from the pump unit, it is more appropriate to consider a Type K cantilever pump. Before buying a KM pump, it is important to determine the system parameters — flow rate, head, and electric motor power — so that the selected model matches the actual load of the facility rather than only the nominal power specified in the technical documentation.
