Home Up Used Equipment Rental Equipment News About Us  

Tsurumi's water control technology plays a key role to creating comfort engineering which is considerate of both man and the planet.

Ever since its foundation in 1924, Tsurumi Mfg. Co., Ltd. has been dedicated to creating and developing water use and control techniques. Today Tsurumi has become Japan's largest submersible pump manufacturer turning out products which are admired all over the world for it's first-rate hydronamic expertise. What underlies Tsurumi's steady technological and commercial developments is its ideal to be a business which contributes to the benefit of global and human society.

Now with the new millennium unfolding Tsurumi is making renewed efforts to build pumps which will not only answer the needs of all relevant industries. They also must respond to the calls of the people in all countries who would benefit from efficient water use and control -- for many years to come -- by virtue of Tsurumi's environment-friendly pump-making technology.
A high quality, energy efficient, water, waste water, sewage, and manure submersible pump line. Used in agricultural, municipal, industrial, residential, construction, and dewatering applications.

Features & Benefits

General
Established in 1924, Tsurumi is one of the world's most experienced pump manufacturers.
Tsurumi's Kyoto Plant is the world's most modern submersible pump manufacturing plant. (Total Manufacturing Capability: 1,000,000 units per year.)

Tsurumi produces more submersible pumps per year than any other submersible pump manufacturer in the world. (500,000 units per year.)

Tsurumi offers over 1800 different models of submersible pumps.

Other products offered for the sewage and wastewater industry:
 Submersible Aerators, Decanting Units, Scum Skimmers, Submersible Blowers, Submersible Mixers.

Tsurumi's Goal of producing only the most overall efficient, highest quality and environment friendly products is illustrated in the following ways.

Utilization of higher quality materials enables Tsurumi to produce submersible pumps that will outlast other pumps that are offered in today's market. Tsurumi's research and development department is involved in an ongoing program to develop new and superior materials for pumping applications.
Examples:

bullet

Silicon Carbide Mechanical Seals: Outwears all other materials by a wide margin and has a higher temperature limit than the next hardest material.
Tungsten Carbide rated to 570
º F. vs. Silicon Carbide rated to 3700º F.

bullet

ASTM 148 Class 35 Cast Iron: 10% Higher tensile strength and 27% more resistant to abrasive wear than ASTM Class 30 cast Iron, (used by most other manufactures).

bullet

Application Appropriate FRP, (Fiberglass Reinforce Plastics) resists corrosion, extreme temperatures, highly impact resistant and is recyclable.

bullet

High Chrome Cast Iron utilized in abrasive applications.

bullet

Ductile Cast Iron utilized in abrasive applications.

bullet

316 Stainless Steel utilized in corrosive applications.

bullet

Titanium utilized for seawater applications.

bullet

Different Insulation Classes offered for specific applications, include Class B, Class E, Class F and Class H.

bullet

50/60 Cycle motors with 1.15 or higher service factors.

bullet

Copper wound, air filled motors (10% average, higher efficiency than oil filled motors), retains electrical integrity as compared to aluminum wound motors).
 

Tsurumi utilizes only the highest Engineering, Design and Test Standards and will not compromise them for in order to obtain a competitive edge.
Low throughput velocities for resistance to abrasion or erosion due to high scouring velocity.

It is important to note that there are many other factors that affect abrasion ratios, however the above illustration indicates that the overall velocity through the Tsurumi pump is lower and therefore wear rates due to erosion and scouring will be lower. In addition, the discharge pipe size specified by the engineer will more than likely match the discharge size supplied by Tsurumi, eliminating the need for a discharge increaser, reduces the cost of installation and increases the efficiency of the system by reducing friction loss.

Standard Design Features eliminate common problems encountered in wastewater and sewage applications.

 Dual Inside Mechanical Seals with Silicon Carbide located in a corrosion free oil filled chamber eliminates or minimizes the following problems. (Pressure rating of 1.5 times shut off pressure)

bullet

Seizing of rotating faces, causing destruction of other seal parts.

bullet

Seal failure due to run-dry conditions.

bullet

Short seal life due to abrasive particles in the pumpage.

bullet

Fouling or freezing of the bottom rotating unit to the shaft, (not allowing seal closure), due to build up of sludge on the shaft.

bullet

Offers a wider range of chemical resistance.

bullet

Due to high closing pressure of the seal spring, seal shock due to water hammer, should it occur during shut down is eliminated.

bullet

Sealing is not dependent on differential pressure.

Seal pressure relief ports provided on pumps designed to exceed 98' of head at shut off.

bullet

Protects seal from over rated limits.

bullet

Protect seal faces from abrasive particles by drawing particles away from them.

Lip seals or "V" Rings locate between pumpage and lower seal faces offers added protection from abrasive particles.

Oil Lifter, (Patent Pending) is supplied as standard on all pumps 1 Hp. and larger.  assures lubrication of the top seal faces down to 1/3 of the standard oil level in the oil chamber.

bullet

Provides for circulation in the oil chamber and therefore dissipates heat evenly.

Air relief valve, supplied as standard on all side discharge pumps prevents air locking.

Circle Thermal Protector or Miniature Thermal Protectors are provided on all three legs in three phase units and in the primary winding of single phase units. Prevents motor failure due to overloading, single phasing, (in three phase units) or phase imbalance.

Cable entrance with combination thermal expansion boot and anti-wicking block.

bullet

Protects power cable from abrading at point of entry.

bullet

Extends bending radius thereby preventing kinking.

bullet

Allows for field replacement using standard submersible cable.

bullet

Protects Epoxy from cracking due to difference of coefficient of expansion between cast iron and epoxy.

bullet

Individual conductor are stripped back and then potted with epoxy providing for a positive water block and eliminating wicking should the power cable become damaged. * Units 5 Hp. and below are provided with a one piece vulcanized entrance, that include all of the above features.

*Replacement power cables for these units must be purchased from Tsurumi.
