PURPOSE-BUILT
FOR PULP AND
PAPER.
2
In many ways, paper is a wonderfully simple material. Lightweight, easy to shape and almost
limitless in its applications, it is used by countless people each day, all over the world.
Its practical, economical qualities have made it an essential part of modern life.

Behind it, however, is a complex industry that is as tough as it is specialized. You who work
with pulp, paper and forest products place rigorous demands on your process equipment.
And pumps are no exception.

Our many years of working with the pulp and paper industry have taught us the importance
of reliable and efficient pumping solutions. Proof of this can be seen in the next generation
of Scanpump process pumps, the BE series.

The BE series represents a total understanding of the needs of pulp and paper customers.
It combines a deep knowledge of our customers’ processes with the non-stop reliability
that reduces operating expense. The BE series provides ample opportunities for process
optimization, along with the lowest life cycle cost on today’s market.

The following pages will introduce you to the BE series and its unique features. As you will
see, BE pumps build on robust engineering and solid principles that guarantee perform-
ance in pulp and paper applications.

PUMPS THAT LEAVE
TO CHANCE.
The BE series is a single pump range designed specifically for the pulp and paper industry.
Without compromises on coverage, reliability or service, pumps in the BE series are able to
meet demanding customer needs in both general and special applications.

THE IN’S AND OUT’S O
Pumps in the BE series incorporate a wide range of performance-enhancing features. Their
sturdy construction ensures reliability and a long pump lifetime, while their hydraulic design
offers outstanding efficiencies.

High wear resistance

Rugged BE pump construction creates long-
term wear resistance. The generous wall
thickness and the casing’s smooth, pocket-free
interior protect against erosion and corrosion.

Secure impeller fixing

One impeller fixing serves for all material codes and
pump sizes. The impeller can be easily fitted and
removed for short MTTR (Mean Time To Repair).
A polygonal shaft secures the impeller fixing
under all operating conditions, regardless of the
direction of rotation. This ensures even power trans-
mission, which results in stable operating conditions
and long MTBF. A well designed o-ring shaft seal
minimizes the risk of leakage.

Optimized impeller design

The design of BE pump impellers raises efficien-
cies and lowers operating cost. The impellers can
handle almost any suspensions and a huge range
of slurries.
A new hydraulic design for semi-open impellers
features large free passages. The sturdy construc-
tion ensures high wear resistance, resists corrosion
and reduces sensitivity to foreign objects.
On vortex impellers, an improved vane design
ensures clogless and trouble-free operation.
The robust construction minimizes the risk of shaft
breakage in pumps used for tough applications.

Adjustable wear disc

The replaceable wear discs protecting BE pump
inlets have an improved seal against the casing
and are easier to adjust. This means that high
efficiencies can be retained as well as minimized
MTTR. Their ATEX-approved (EU only) design
offers safe, low-cost operation.

and low maintenance costs. Six different bear-
ing sizes cover all pumps in the series, and all
bearings have angular contact ball bearings at
the driven end.
Standard bearing assemblies are lubri-
cated with grease, though oil is also an option.
On oil-lubricated bearing assemblies, two
inspection eyes are standard. This makes it
easy to inspect the bearing assembly from
both sides.
For stock applications with solids,
semi-open impellers with a reduced
number of vanes are normally used.
Here, a 3-vane impeller.

tion of less than 0.05 mm at the seal area
under normal running conditions. This
creates an excellent environment for the
mechanical seal. All shafts are protected
by a replaceable sleeve in stainless steel or
higher quality alloys.

For passage of the largest solids or

sensitive pulp suspensions, vortex
impellers are used.

SMART THINKING, SO
BE pumps are built according to a two-part philosophy of design integration. One of the
components is System PSI, or Pump Seal Integration. The other is System PMI, or Pump Mill
Integration. Both provide unique advantages that ensure maximum reliability at a lower cost.

System PSI
System PSI is a total concept, based upon the know- A pump’s shaft seal is its Achille’s heel, and prob-

built on a combination of strong bearing assemblies our customers has given us a thorough understanding
and optimum sealing technology. of shaft seal operating conditions. By integrating the
seal arrangement into the pump design, ideal seal op-
erating conditions and high reliability are created.

BE pumps are intended for long, tough and continuous operation. The bearing assemblies
can go long intervals between lubrications, and the pumps as whole are designed for mini-
mum maintenance. Modular design makes it simple to replace the bearing assembly and
shaft seal, and service kits with genuine OEM parts are available for bearing assemblies,
impellers and wear discs.

Convenient spacer coupling (back pull-out)

BE pumps are normally fitted with spacer couplings,
which allow the rotor assembly to be pulled from the
back of the pump casing without moving the motor.
This guarantees fast and simple maintenance.
We also offer a special lifting arm and pulley block,
which allow one person to safely and easily remove
and refit the rotor units in pumps with large bearing
assemblies.

Pre-assembled seal cartridge

Improved impeller fixing.
Mechanical seals demand knowledge and skill for
proper installation. BE pumps use a pre-assembled
seal cartridge, which makes the process far less
complex. The cartridge’s few parts make it quick Easy wear disc adjustment or replacement

We also provide tools that further simplify service, This makes it easy to maintain high efficiency over

Windowed coupling guards

The coupling guards of BE pumps feature an inspection
window as standard. This allows easy stroboscope in-
spection of the couplings’ condition during operation.

Improved impeller fixing

With the BE pump impeller fixing, the impeller can
easily be fitted and removed for short MTTR. The
simplified dismantling and fitting are the result of
fewer parts and wider impeller tolerances.
